How to register for TaskCreatedEvents in Confluence?

[poppitz81]

Hi,

I want to write a simple plugin which notices when a Confluence task was created. Any suggestions how to achieve this?

Thanks,
Thomas

One solution would be to write an event listener in your plugin as follow :

```

import com.atlassian.confluence.plugins.tasklist.event.ConfluenceTaskV2CreateEvent;
import com.atlassian.confluence.plugins.tasklist.event.ConfluenceTaskV2RemoveEvent;
import com.atlassian.confluence.plugins.tasklist.event.ConfluenceTaskV2UpdateEvent;
import com.atlassian.event.api.EventListener;
import com.atlassian.event.api.EventPublisher;
import com.atlassian.plugin.spring.scanner.annotation.imports.ComponentImport;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.DisposableBean;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.InitializingBean;
import org.springframework.beans.factory.annotation.Autowired;
import org.springframework.stereotype.Component;

@Component
public class TasksListener implements InitializingBean, DisposableBean {

    private final EventPublisher eventPublisher;

    @Autowired
    public TasksListener(final @ComponentImport EventPublisher eventPublisher) {
        this.eventPublisher = eventPublisher;
    }

    @Override
    public final void afterPropertiesSet() throws Exception {
        eventPublisher.register(this);
    }

    @Override
    public final void destroy() throws Exception {
        eventPublisher.unregister(this);
    }

    @EventListener
    public void taskCreated(final ConfluenceTaskV2CreateEvent taskCreatedEvent) {

    }

    @EventListener
    public void taskUpdated(final ConfluenceTaskV2UpdateEvent taskUpdatedEvent) {

    }

    @EventListener
    public void taskRemoved(final ConfluenceTaskV2RemoveEvent taskRemovedEvent) {

    }
}

```
