Working on parsing my files to document events. Regex below, taking suggestions on anything missing or alternative regexes thanks.

Gist

preg_match('/Event::trigger\(((\'|\").*)(,|\',) \[(.*)]\)/', $line, $matches);

@fdciabdul which parameter you are talking about?

i mean like this

Event::listen('logout', function($param){
    echo 'Event '. $param .' logout fired! <br>';
});

if($user->logout()) {
$data = array("first","second","third");


    Event::trigger('logout', $data);
}

the output is just first , not return the array itself

@fdciabdul you can call multiple params function($param1, $param2, $param3) or if you want the whole array then just call it like this -

Event::trigger('logout', [$data]);
