This extension provides the `DispatchModelEventsTrait` that makes the following events available for your custom model:

Events implemented
------------------

[](#events-implemented)

### PrePersistModelEvent

[](#prepersistmodelevent)

Triggered before persisting the model in the database. You can access the `Model` with the current data and the `Model` with the original data.

Row data can be modified at this point, when using `setData()`.

### PostPersistModelEvent

[](#postpersistmodelevent)

Triggered after persisting the model in the database. You can access the `Model` with the current data and the `Model` with the original data.

### DeleteModelEvent

[](#deletemodelevent)

Triggered after the model has been deleted successfully. You can access the `Model` instance.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

### Implement the Trait in your custom model

[](#implement-the-trait-in-your-custom-model)

```
use Contao\Model;

class MyTableModel extends Model
{

    use Contao\Model\DispatchModelEventsTrait;

    /**
     * Table name
     *
     * @var string
     */
    protected static $strTable = 'tl_my_table';
}
```

From now on, the above mentioned events get triggered on any `save()` and `delete()` action.
