Attribute Macro frame_support::pallet_macros::event

#[event]
Expand description

Allows defining pallet events.

Pallet events are stored under the system / events key when the block is applied (and then replaced when the next block writes it’s events).

The Event enum can be defined as follows:

#[frame_support::pallet(dev_mode)]
mod pallet {
	#[pallet::pallet]
	pub struct Pallet<T>(_);

	#[pallet::event]
	#[pallet::generate_deposit(fn deposit_event)] // Optional
	pub enum Event<T> {
		/// SomeEvent doc
		SomeEvent(u16, u32), // SomeEvent with two fields
	}

	#[pallet::config]
	pub trait Config: frame_system::Config {
		/// The overarching runtime event type.
		type RuntimeEvent: From<Event<Self>>
			+ IsType<<Self as frame_system::Config>::RuntimeEvent>;
	}
}

I.e. an enum (with named or unnamed fields variant), named Event, with generic: none or T or T: Config, and optional w here clause.

RuntimeEvent must be defined in the Config, as shown in the example.

Each field must implement Clone, Eq, PartialEq, codec::Encode, codec::Decode, and Debug (on std only). For ease of use, bound by the trait Member, available in frame_support::pallet_prelude.
