.. _`events-API`:
Events and promises
===================
Converse and its plugins emit various events which you can listen to via the
:ref:`listen-grouping`.
Some of these events are also available as `ES2015 Promises <http://es6-features.org/#PromiseUsage>`_,
although not all of them could logically act as promises, since some events
might be fired multpile times whereas promises are to be resolved (or
rejected) only once.
The core events, which are also promises are:
* `cachedRoster`_
* `chatBoxesFetched`_
* `connectionInitialized`_
* `controlboxInitialized`_ (only via the `converse-controlbox` plugin)
* `pluginsInitialized`_
* `roomsPanelRendered`_ (only via the `converse-muc` plugin)
* `rosterContactsFetched`_
* `rosterGroupsFetched`_
* `rosterInitialized`_
* `roster`_
* `statusInitialized`_
For more info on how to use (or add promises), you can read the
:ref:`promises-grouping` in the API documentation.
Below we will now list all events and also specify whether they are available
as promises.
Global events
-------------
With global events, we mean events triggered in the global context, i.e. on the
`window` object in browsers.
converse-loaded
---------------
Once Converse.js has loaded, it'll dispatch a custom event with the name
``converse-loaded``.
You can listen for this event in your scripts and thereby be informed as soon
as converse.js has been loaded, which would mean it's safe to call
``converse.initialize``.
For example:
.. code-block:: javascript
window.addEventListener('converse-loaded', () => {
converse.initialize();
});
List protected of events (and promises)
----------------------------------------
Hooking into events that Converse.js emits is a great way to extend or
customize its functionality.
From version 3.0.0 and up, it's only possible to register event handlers inside
a plugin, by using the closured ``_converse`` object. When writing a plugin,
remember that it will also have to be whitelisted, before it will be loaded.
Refer to the :ref:`whitelisted_plugins` setting.
Here follows the different events that are emitted:
afterMessagesFetched
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Emitted whenever a chatbox has fetched its messages from ``sessionStorage`` and
**NOT** from the server.
This event is listened to by the ``converse-mam`` plugin to know when it can
fetch archived messages from the server.
The event handler is passed the ``Backbone.View`` instance of the relevant chat
box.
``_converse.api.listen.on('afterMessagesFetched', function (chatboxview) { ... });``
.. _`cachedRoster`:
cachedRoster
~~~~~~~~~~~~
The contacts roster has been retrieved from the local cache (`sessionStorage`).
``_converse.api.listen.on('cachedRoster', function (items) { ... });``
Also available as an `ES2015 Promise <http://es6-features.org/#PromiseUsage>`_:
.. code-block:: javascript
_converse.api.waitUntil('cachedRoster').then(function () {
// Your code here...
});
See also the `roster`_ event further down.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When a call button (i.e. with class .toggle-call) on a chatbox has been clicked.
``_converse.api.listen.on('callButtonClicked', function (connection, model) { ... });``
.. _`chatBoxesFetched`:
chatBoxesFetched
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Any open chatboxes (from this current session) has been retrieved from the local cache (`sessionStorage`).
You should wait for this event or promise before attempting to do things
related to open chatboxes.

Also available as an `ES2015 Promise <http://es6-features.org/#PromiseUsage>`_:

``_converse.api.listen.on('connected', function () { ... });``
connectionInitialized
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Called once the ``Strophe.Connection`` constructor has been initialized, which
will be responsible for managing the connection to the XMPP server.
contactRequest
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Someone has requested to subscribe to your presence (i.e. to be your contact).
The `Backbone.Model <http://backbonejs.org/#Model>`_ instance representing the
roster contact is passed to the event listener.

``_converse.api.listen.on('noResumeableSession', function () { ... });``
.. _`pluginsInitialized`:
pluginsInitialized
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Emitted once all plugins have been initialized. This is a useful event if you want to
register event handlers but would like your own handlers to be overridable by
plugins. In that case, you need to first wait until all plugins have been
initialized, so that their overrides are active. One example where this is used
is in `converse-notifications.js <https://github.com/jcbrand/converse.js/blob/master/src/converse-notification.js>`.
``_converse.api.listen.on('pluginsInitialized', function () { ... });``
Also available as an `ES2015 Promise <http://es6-features.org/#PromiseUsage>`_:
.. code-block:: javascript
_converse.api.waitUntil('pluginsInitialized').then(function () {
// Your code here...
});
privateChatsAutoJoined
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Emitted once any private chats have been automatically joined as specified by
the _`auto_join_private_chats` settings.
.. code-block:: javascript
_converse.api.listen.on('privateChatsAutoJoined', function () { ... });
Also available as an `ES2015 Promise <http://es6-features.org/#PromiseUsage>`_.
.. code-block:: javascript
_converse.api.waitUntil('privateChatsAutoJoined').then(function () {

Fired once converse.js has determined that it will attempt to reconnect (and
each subsequent time, if it attempts repeatedly).
reconnected
~~~~~~~~~~~
After the connection has dropped and converse.js has reconnected.
Any Strophe stanza handlers (as registered via `converse.listen.stanza`) will
have to be registered anew.
.. code-block:: javascript
_converse.api.listen.on('reconnected', function () { ... });
registeredGlobalEventHandlers
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

as window resize or unload).
Plugins can listen to this event as cue to register their own global event
handlers.
roomsAutoJoined
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Emitted once any rooms that have been configured to be automatically joined,
specified via the _`auto_join_rooms` setting, have been entered.
.. code-block:: javascript
_converse.api.listen.on('roomsAutoJoined', function () { ... });
Also available as an `ES2015 Promise <http://es6-features.org/#PromiseUsage>`_:
.. code-block:: javascript
_converse.api.waitUntil('roomsAutoJoined').then(function () {

Also available as an `ES2015 Promise <http://es6-features.org/#PromiseUsage>`_:
.. code-block:: javascript
_converse.api.waitUntil('roomsPanelRendered').then(function () {
// Your code here...
});
.. _`roster`:
roster
~~~~~~
When the roster has been received from the XMPP server.
``_converse.api.listen.on('roster', function (items) { ... });``
Also available as an `ES2015 Promise <http://es6-features.org/#PromiseUsage>`_:
.. code-block:: javascript
_converse.api.waitUntil('roster').then(function () {
// Your code here...
});
See also the `cachedRoster` event further up, which gets called instead of
`roster` if its already in `sessionStorage`.
.. _`rosterContactsFetched`:
rosterContactsFetched

.. code-block:: javascript
_converse.api.waitUntil('rosterInitialized').then(function () {
// Your code here...
});
rosterPush
~~~~~~~~~~
When the roster receives a push event from server. (i.e. New entry in your buddy list)
``_converse.api.listen.on('rosterPush', function (items) { ... });``
rosterReadyAfterReconnection
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Similar to `rosterInitialized`, but instead pertaining to reconnection. This
event indicates that the Backbone collections representing the roster and its
groups are now again available after converse.js has reconnected.

proceeding, then you'll first want to wait for this event.
windowStateChanged
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
When window state has changed. Used to determine when a user left the page and when came back.
``_converse.api.listen.on('windowStateChanged', function (data) { ... });``
List of events on the ChatRoom Backbone.Model
---------------------------------------------

configuration form for a new room.
