Laravel 5 event not working -

sr, try using laravel 5 example below, not working.

namespace app\events;  use illuminate\queue\serializesmodels;  class didsomething extends event {     use serializesmodels;     public function __construct() {      return;     } } 

and handles

namespace app\handlers\events;

use app\events\didsomething;

class dosomething {     public function __construct() {     }     public function handle(didsomething $event) {       dd($event);     }   } 

and eventserviceprovider.php

 namespace app\providers;   use illuminate\contracts\events\dispatcher dispatchercontract;  use illuminate\foundation\support\providers\eventserviceprovider    serviceprovider;   class eventserviceprovider extends serviceprovider {     /**    * event handler mappings application.    *    * @var array    */    protected $listen = [         app\events\didsomething::class=>[                 app\handlers\events\dosomething::class         ]    ];  /**  * register other events application.  *  * @param  \illuminate\contracts\events\dispatcher  $events  * @return void  */ public function boot(dispatchercontract $events) {     parent::boot($events);      // } 

}

in controller, used \event::fire(new didsomething());

and had tried command line

php artisan event:generate php artisan optimize composer update 

1. generate event

   art make:event logme

2. generate event handler event

   art handler:event logme --event="logme"

3. make sure register event , it’s hander in event service provider (app/providers/eventserviceprovider.php)

//

protected $listen = [    'event.name' => [       'eventlistener',    ],         \xxx\events\logme::class => [              \xxx\handlers\events\logme::class,        ],  ]; 

4. fire event event::fire(new logme()); -or- can use event helper event(new logme());

alternatively can generate event registering event in service provider running command art event:generate << automatically add 2 classes you

5. you can listen event without creating event handler or registering lister in listeners array.

go event service prover , inside boot function write event , action (not recommended)

event::listen('xxx\events\dosomethingelse', function($event) {      dd('handle me :)'); }); 

6. you can queue event or subscribe multiple events within class
