      1. Go to admin/index.php
      2. You SHOULD NOT see a message regarding events 1 api handlers being used
      3. Add $handlers array to a db/events.php as specified in https://docs.moodle.org/dev/Events_API#Handling_an_event with a schedule=instant handler
      4. Bump the version of the plugin you added $handlers and upgrade so the event handlers are registered in db
      5. Perform the required moodle action to trigger that event
      6. Make sure you see a debugging message about switching to events 2 API
      7. Add another event handler with schedule=cron (you might need to purge cache, not sure)
      8. Run cron
      9. Make sure you see a debugging message about switching to events 2 API
      10. Go to admin/index.php
      11. You SHOULD see a message regarding events 1 api handlers being used

    • 3.1 Stable Sprint 2, 3.1 Sprint 3

      While it has been implied that the new events system was replacing the old one, only a debugging message for those using events_trigger directly was showing up.

      At some point we will have to remove:

      • events_trigger()
      • The old events trigger from the new one (cf. get_legacy_eventname, get_legacy_eventdata)
      • events_trigger_legacy()
      • The handler system

      Though before we remove those we must deprecate them, then only 2 releases later we will be able to entirely remove these API.

      IMO the deprecation of these can happen any time from now, the new events were shipped with 2.6.
