## The Event Object

|
|
## Events
|
|
|
|
Events are raised when a subparser is run (or about to be run).
|
|
Within a subparser, the events always follow a certain order (sequence). For instance, **.before** events always run before **.captureStart**.
|
|
Each subparser raises several events sequentially:
|
|
|
|
1. **.start**: **always runs** except it subparser is disabled
|
|
|
|
Raised when the **subparser has started**, but no capturing or any modification to the text was done.
|
|
|
|
**Always runs** (except if the subparser is deactivated through options).
|
|
|
|
***Properties***:
|
|
|
|
| property | type | access | description |
|
|
|----------|-----------|------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| input | string | read | The full text that was passed to the subparser |
|
|
| output | string | write | The full text with modification that will be passed along the chain|
|
|
| regex | null | | |
|
|
| matches | null | | |
|
|
|
|
Usually you would want to use this event if you wish to change the input to the subparser
|
|
|
|
2. **.captureStart**: *might not be run*;
|
|
|
|
Raised when a regex match is found and a capture was successful. Some normalization and modification
|
|
of the regex captured groups might be performed.
|
|
|
|
Might not be run if no regex match is found.
|
|
|
|
***Properties***:
|
|
|
|
| property | type | access | description |
|
|
|----------|-----------|------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| input | string | read | The captured text |
|
|
| output | string | write | The text that will be passed to the subparser/other listeners |
|
|
| regex | RegExp | readonly | Regular Expression used to capture groups |
|
|
| matches | object | read/write | Matches groups. Changes to this object are reflected in the output |
|
|
|
|
Usually you would want to use this event if you wish to modify a certain subparser behavior.
|
|
Exs: remove all title attributes from links; change indentation of code blocks; etc...
|
|
|
|
3. **.captureEnd**: *might not be run*;
|
|
|
|
Raised after the modifications to the captured text are done but before the replacement is introduced in the document.
|
|
|
|
Might not be run if no regex match is found.
|
|
|
|
***Properties***:
|
|
|
|
| property | type | access | description |
|
|
|------------|-----------|------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| input | string | read | The captured text |
|
|
| output | string | write | The text that will be passed to the subparser/other listeners |
|
|
| regex | RegExp | readonly | Regular Expression used to capture groups |
|
|
| matches | object | read/write | Keypairs of matches groups. Changes to this object are reflected in the output |
|
|
| attributes | object | read/write | Attributes to add to the HTML output |
|
|
|
|
4. **.beforeHash**: *might not be run*;
|
|
|
|
Raised before the output is hashed.
|
|
|
|
Always run (except if the subparser was deactivated through options), even if no hashing is performed.
|
|
|
|
***Properties***:
|
|
|
|
| property | type | access | description |
|
|
|----------|------------|------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| input | string | read | The captured text |
|
|
| output | string | write | The text that will be passed to the subparser/other listeners |
|
|
| regex | null | | |
|
|
| matches | null | | |
|
|
|
|
Usually you would want to use this event if you wish change the subparser output before it is hashed
|
|
|
|
5. **.end**: *always runs*;
|
|
|
|
Raised when the subparser has finished its work and is about to exit.
|
|
|
|
Always runs (except if the subparser is deactivated through options).
|
|
|
|
***Properties***:
|
|
|
|
| property | type | access | description |
|
|
|----------|-----------|------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| input | string | read | The partial/full text with the subparser modifications |
|
|
| output | string | write | The text that will be passed to other subparsers |
|
|
| regex | null | | |
|
|
| matches | null | | |
|
|
|
|
Usually you would want to use this event if you wish change the subparser hashed output
|
|
|

|
### Special Events
|
|
|
|
There are some special events that are useful for *"positioning"* a listener extension in the main chain of events.
|
|
Usually these extensions introduce new syntax that, due to precedence
|
|
These events are always guaranteed to be called, regardless of options or circumstances.
|
|
|
|
1. **.before_{subparserName}**: *always runs*
|
|
|
|
Raised just before the **{subparserName} is about to be entered**.
|
|
|
|
***Properties***:
|
|
|
|
| property | type | access | description |
|
|
|----------|-----------|------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| input | string | read | The full text that was passed to the subparser |
|
|
| output | string | write | The full text with modification that will be passed along the chain|
|
|
| regex | null | | |
|
|
| matches | null | | |
|
|
|
|
2. **.after**.{subparserName}: *always runs*;
|
|
|
|
Raised when the **{subparserName} has exited** and before the next one is called.
|
|
|
|
***Properties***:
|
|
|
|
| property | type | access | description |
|
|
|----------|-----------|------------|--------------------------------------------------------------------|
|
|
| input | string | read | The partial/full text with the subparser modifications |
|
|
| output | string | write | The text that will be passed to other subparsers |
|
|
| regex | null | | |
|
|
| matches | null | | |
|
|
|

### Notes
|
|
|
|
- There are 2 main differences between **before.{subparserName}** and **{subparserName}.start**.
|
|
|
|
1. **before.{subparserName}** is always guaranteed to be called, even if the subparser is disabled,
|
|
while **{subparserName}.start** doesn't.
|
|
|
|
ex: `makehtml.before.strikethrough` is always called even if the option `strikethrough` is false
|
|
|
|
2. **before.{subparserName}** is only raised once in a span context while **{subparserName}.start** is raised
|
|
everytime **{subparserName}** is called.
|
|
|
|
As a rule of thumb,
