Abstract
A visual scripting system can provide support for handling event-specific messages received through an event messaging system. The messaging system can provide event messages over one or more event buses that have a determined behavior context. An event node of a visual scripting system can enable a developer to specify event handlers to detect specific types of event notifications sent on a specified event bus, as well as specific actions to be taken in response to those event notifications, such as to send additional event messages, all of which comply with the behavior context. Once the event node is configured and properties and actions defined, the corresponding script can be generated by the visual scripting system, to be complied and executed as part of a user application.
