Introduce an event to decouple the module installer from the entity manager

Created on 3 October 2014, almost 11 years ago
Updated 8 June 2025, 4 months ago

Problem/Motivation

Currently the notification of entity type creation/deletion is hard-coded in the module handler. The reason is that this needs happen right after module schema has been installed, but before hook_install is called.

Proposed resolution

Introduce an event to which the Entity Manager can subscribe and react and decouple the module handler from the entity manager.
