🚀 Feature: Custom events through the admin sdk

[C-R-W]

🔖 Feature description

It would be really awesome to have the ability to emit custom event through the admin api.

🎤 Pitch

With this feature we could do cool stuff like execute functions and notify the subscribed clients with the function result without touching the database to trigger events.

I see a lot of business use cases of custom events.

Hi @C-R-W thanks for the suggestion. As far as I know, this is not planned. Let's hear from the community and depending on the number of upvotes/ comments it gets, we can act accordingly :)

Custom events are really needed. I have a use case where I need to initialise a popup on another browser instance based on a condition. Right now, I am using a collection and listen on the events like create or delete and then get the payload to manipulate.

Custom events would be nice and/or custom channels. It would be a very useful feature that could handle many use cases for sure. I was hoping Appwrite had the ability to broadcast custom events. The realtime feature feels like it is missing something.
