public interface Handler

Handles an I/O event or intercepts an I/O operation, and forwards it to its next handler in its Pipeline.

Extend HandlerAdapter instead

Because this interface has many methods to implement, you might want to extend HandlerAdapter instead.

The context object

A Handler is provided with a HandlerContext object. A Handler is supposed to interact with the Pipeline it belongs to via a context object. Using the context object, the Handler can pass events upstream or downstream or modify the pipeline dynamically.

void	eventTriggered(HandlerContext ctx, Event event, CompletableFuture<Void> future)	Gets called if a Event was emitted.
void	exceptionCaught(HandlerContext ctx, Exception cause)	Gets called if a Exception was thrown.
void	handlerAdded(HandlerContext ctx)	Gets called after the Handler was added to the actual context and it's ready to handle events.
void	handlerRemoved(HandlerContext ctx)	Gets called after the Handler was removed from the actual context and it doesn't handle events anymore.
void	read(HandlerContext ctx, Address sender, Object msg, CompletableFuture<Void> future)	Gets called if a Object was received.
void	write(HandlerContext ctx, Address recipient, Object msg, CompletableFuture<Void> future)	Gets called if a Object was send from the application to a recipient.
