SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Developing Hydro plugins often requires reliable cross-process event coordination, lifecycle management, and resource cleanup across multiple servers. This Skill provides a comprehensive reference to Hydro's event system, including the Context API, cluster-safe broadcasting, 60+ event types, automatic cleanup via ctx.effect, scheduled tasks via ctx.interval, and replaceable modules via ctx.provideModule.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Event API overview: listen, one-time listen, emit, parallel, serial, and cross-process broadcast
  • Cluster safety and orchestration: safely broadcast across processes and servers
  • Resource lifecycle and modularity: resource cleanup, scheduled tasks, and replaceable modules
  • Real-world patterns: examples for plugin development, including generator-based registration using yield

Quick Start

Register plugin event listeners and enable cross-process broadcasts to harmonize plugin behavior

FAQPage Schema
How do I broadcast Hydro plugin events across multiple server processes?

To broadcast Hydro plugin events across multiple server processes, this Skill provides a cluster-safe orchestration reference covering the Context API, cross-process event emission, and parallel or serial event handling for multi-server environments.

How does the Context API manage plugin lifecycles and resource cleanup in Hydro?

The Context API manages plugin lifecycles and resource cleanup in Hydro through automatic disposal mechanisms like ctx.effect for resource cleanup and ctx.interval for scheduled tasks, ensuring safe teardown when plugins are deactivated.

What is the best way to replace or override Hydro modules in a multi-server setup?

The best way to replace Hydro modules in a multi-server setup is using ctx.provideModule to define replaceable modules, enabling safe module substitution and harmonized plugin behavior across distributed server environments.

Can I use generator-based registration for Hydro plugin event listeners?

Yes, you can use generator-based registration for Hydro plugin event listeners by utilizing yield syntax to register events, which is a supported real-world pattern for orchestrating plugin behavior within the framework.

Does Hydro support one-time event listeners and cross-process event coordination?

Hydro supports one-time event listeners and cross-process event coordination through its comprehensive event system, offering over 60 event types that include listen, emit, parallel, serial, and cluster-safe broadcasting capabilities.

When do I need cross-process lifecycle management for Hydro plugins?

You need cross-process lifecycle management for Hydro plugins when building multi-server environments that require reliable event coordination, scheduled tasks via ctx.interval, and automatic resource cleanup across distributed processes.
