Here are all the hooks that Simple Calendar emits and when they are emitted.
The global Simple Calendar object comes with a variable called hooks which will list all the available hooks that can be listened for.
Example:
SimpleCalendar.Hooks.DateTimeChange
The current hooks that are emitted are:
Hook Name | Value | Description |

DateTimeChange | "simple-calendar-date-time-change" |
This hook is emitted any time the current date is updated. |
ClockStartStop | "simple-calendar-clock-start-stop" |
This hook is emitted any time the clock is started/stopped or paused. |
PrimaryGM | "simple-calendar-primary-gm" |
This hook is emitted when the current user is promoted to the primary GM role. |
This hook is emitted any time the current date is updated. The current date can be updated by several means:
- When the GM clicks on the "Set Current Date" button after adjusting the current date.
- When the clock is running every interval update.
- When the Set Date/Time API function is called.
- When the Change Date/Time API function is called.
- When the game world time has changed and Simple Calendar is configured to update when that changes.
