# Objective
Fix https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/19617
# Solution
Add newlines before all impl blocks.
I suspect that at least some of these will be objectionable! If there's
a desired Bevy style for this then I'll update the PR. If not then we
can just close it - it's the work of a single find and replace.
# Objective
- Many strings in bevy_ecs are created but only used for debug: system
name, component name, ...
- Those strings make a significant part of the final binary and are no
use in a released game
## Solution
- Use [`strings`](https://linux.die.net/man/1/strings) to find ...
strings in a binary
- Try to find where they come from
- Many are made from `type_name::<T>()` and only used in error / debug
messages
- Add a new structure `DebugName` that holds no value if `debug` feature
is disabled
- Replace `core::any::type_name::<T>()` by `DebugName::type_name::<T>()`
## Testing
Measurements were taken without the new feature being enabled by
default, to help with commands

Follow-up of #19274.
Make the `check_change_tick` methods, of which some are now public, take
`CheckChangeTicks` to make it obvious where this tick comes from, see
other PR.
This also affects the `System` trait, hence the many changed files.

# Objective
Reduce memory usage by storing fewer copies of
`FilteredAccessSet<ComponentId>`.
Currently, the `System` trait exposes the `component_access_set` for the
system, which is used by the multi-threaded executor to determine which
systems can run concurrently. But because it is available on the trait,
it needs to be stored for *every* system, even ones that are not run by
the executor! In particular, it is never needed for observers, or for
the inner systems in a `PipeSystem` or `CombinatorSystem`.
## Solution
Instead of exposing the access from a method on `System`, return it from
`System::initialize`. Since it is still needed during scheduling, store
the access alongside the boxed system in the schedule.
That's not quite enough for systems built using `SystemParamBuilder`s,
though. Those calculate the access in `SystemParamBuilder::build`, which
happens earlier than `System::initialize`. To handle those, we separate
`SystemParam::init_state` into `init_state`, which creates the state
value, and `init_access`, which calculates the access. This lets
`System::initialize` call `init_access` on a state that was provided by
the builder.
An additional benefit of that separation is that it removes the need to
duplicate access checks between `SystemParamBuilder::build` and
`SystemParam::init_state`.

# Objective
Currently, the observer API looks like this:
```rust
app.add_observer(|trigger: Trigger<Explode>| {
info!("Entity {} exploded!", trigger.target());
});
```
Future plans for observers also include "multi-event observers" with a
trigger that looks like this (see [Cart's
example](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/14649#issuecomment-2960402508)):
```rust
trigger: Trigger<(
OnAdd<Pressed>,
OnRemove<Pressed>,
OnAdd<InteractionDisabled>,
OnRemove<InteractionDisabled>,
OnInsert<Hovered>,
)>,
```
In scenarios like this, there is a lot of repetition of `On`. These are
expected to be very high-traffic APIs especially in UI contexts, so
ergonomics and readability are critical.
By renaming `Trigger` to `On`, we can make these APIs read more cleanly
and get rid of the repetition:
```rust
app.add_observer(|trigger: On<Explode>| {
info!("Entity {} exploded!", trigger.target());
});
```
```rust
trigger: On<(
Add<Pressed>,
Remove<Pressed>,
Add<InteractionDisabled>,
Remove<InteractionDisabled>,
Insert<Hovered>,
)>,
```
Names like `On<Add<Pressed>>` emphasize the actual event listener nature
more than `Trigger<OnAdd<Pressed>>`, and look cleaner. This *also* frees
up the `Trigger` name if we want to use it for the observer event type,
splitting them out from buffered events (bikeshedding this is out of
scope for this PR though).
For prior art:
[`bevy_eventlistener`](https://github.com/aevyrie/bevy_eventlistener)
used
[`On`](https://docs.rs/bevy_eventlistener/latest/bevy_eventlistener/event_listener/struct.On.html)
for its event listener type. Though in our case, the observer is the
event listener, and `On` is just a type containing information about the
triggered event.
## Solution
Steal from `bevy_event_listener` by @aevyrie and use `On`.
- Rename `Trigger` to `On`
- Rename `OnAdd` to `Add`
- Rename `OnInsert` to `Insert`
- Rename `OnReplace` to `Replace`
- Rename `OnRemove` to `Remove`
- Rename `OnDespawn` to `Despawn`
## Discussion
### Naming Conflicts??
Using a name like `Add` might initially feel like a very bad idea, since
it risks conflict with `core::ops::Add`. However, I don't expect this to
be a big problem in practice.
- You rarely need to actually implement the `Add` trait, especially in
modules that would use the Bevy ECS.
- In the rare cases where you *do* get a conflict, it is very easy to
fix by just disambiguating, for example using `ops::Add`.
- The `Add` event is a struct while the `Add` trait is a trait (duh), so
the compiler error should be very obvious.
For the record, renaming `OnAdd` to `Add`, I got exactly *zero* errors
or conflicts within Bevy itself. But this is of course not entirely
representative of actual projects *using* Bevy.
You might then wonder, why not use `Added`? This would conflict with the
`Added` query filter, so it wouldn't work. Additionally, the current
naming convention for observer events does not use past tense.
### Documentation
This does make documentation slightly more awkward when referring to
`On` or its methods. Previous docs often referred to `Trigger::target`
or "sends a `Trigger`" (which is... a bit strange anyway), which would
now be `On::target` and "sends an observer `Event`".
You can see the diff in this PR to see some of the effects. I think it
should be fine though, we may just need to reword more documentation to
read better.
# Objective
- Cleanup related to #19495.
## Solution
- Delete `System::component_access()`. It is redundant with
`System::component_access_set().combined_access()`.
## Testing
- None. There are no callers of this function.
# Objective
- A preparation for the 'system as entities'
- The current system has a series of states such as `is_send`,
`is_exclusive`, `has_defered`, As `system as entites` landed, it may
have more states. Using Bitflags to unify all states is a more concise
and performant approach
## Solution
- Using Bitflags to unify system state.
# Objective
- Enable hot patching systems with subsecond
- Fixes#19296
## Solution
- First commit is the naive thin layer
- Second commit only check the jump table when the code is hot patched
instead of on every system execution
- Depends on https://github.com/DioxusLabs/dioxus/pull/4153 for a nicer
API, but could be done without
- Everything in second commit is feature gated, it has no impact when
the feature is not enabled
## Testing
- Check dependencies without the feature enabled: nothing dioxus in tree
- Run the new example: text and color can be changed

# Objective
Remove `ArchetypeComponentId` and `archetype_component_access`.
Following #16885, they are no longer used by the engine, so we can stop
spending time calculating them or space storing them.
## Solution
Remove `ArchetypeComponentId` and everything that touches it.
The `System::update_archetype_component_access` method no longer needs
to update `archetype_component_access`. We do still need to update query
caches, but we no longer need to do so *before* running the system. We'd
have to touch every caller anyway if we gave the method a better name,
so just remove `System::update_archetype_component_access` and
`SystemParam::new_archetype` entirely, and update the query cache in
`Query::get_param`.
The `Single` and `Populated` params also need their query caches updated
in `SystemParam::validate_param`, so change `validate_param` to take
`&mut Self::State` instead of `&Self::State`.
# Objective
Stop using `ArchetypeComponentId` in the executor. These IDs will grow
even more quickly with relations, and the size may start to degrade
performance.
## Solution
Have systems expose their `FilteredAccessSet<ComponentId>`, and have the
executor use that to determine which systems conflict. This can be
determined statically, so determine all conflicts during initialization
and only perform bit tests when running.
## Testing
I ran many_foxes and didn't see any performance changes. It's probably
worth testing this with a wider range of realistic schedules to see
whether the reduced concurrency has a cost in practice, but I don't know
what sort of test cases to use.
## Migration Guide
The schedule will now prevent systems from running in parallel if there
*could* be an archetype that they conflict on, even if there aren't
actually any. For example, these systems will now conflict even if no
entity has both `Player` and `Enemy` components:
```rust
fn player_system(query: Query<(&mut Transform, &Player)>) {}
fn enemy_system(query: Query<(&mut Transform, &Enemy)>) {}
```
To allow them to run in parallel, use `Without` filters, just as you
would to allow both queries in a single system:
```rust
// Either one of these changes alone would be enough
fn player_system(query: Query<(&mut Transform, &Player), Without<Enemy>>) {}
fn enemy_system(query: Query<(&mut Transform, &Enemy), Without<Player>>) {}
```
# Objective
After #17967, closures which always panic no longer satisfy various Bevy
traits. Principally, this affects observers, systems and commands.
While this may seem pointless (systems which always panic are kind of
useless), it is distinctly annoying when using the `todo!` macro, or
when writing tests that should panic.
Fixes#18778.
## Solution
- Add failing tests to demonstrate the problem
- Add the trick from
[`never_say_never`](https://docs.rs/never-say-never/latest/never_say_never/)
to name the `!` type on stable Rust
- Write looots of docs explaining what the heck is going on and why
we've done this terrible thing
## To do
Unfortunately I couldn't figure out how to avoid conflicting impls, and
I am out of time for today, the week and uh the week after that.

my branch and I can review and press the button for it while I'm off.

# Objective
Fix panic in `run_system` when running an exclusive system wrapped in a
`PipeSystem` or `AdapterSystem`.
#18076 introduced a `System::run_without_applying_deferred` method. It
normally calls `System::run_unsafe`, but
`ExclusiveFunctionSystem::run_unsafe` panics, so it was overridden for
that type. Unfortunately, `PipeSystem::run_without_applying_deferred`
still calls `PipeSystem::run_unsafe`, which can then call
`ExclusiveFunctionSystem::run_unsafe` and panic.
## Solution
Make `ExclusiveFunctionSystem::run_unsafe` work instead of panicking.
Clarify the safety requirements that make this sound.
The alternative is to override `run_without_applying_deferred` in
`PipeSystem`, `CombinatorSystem`, `AdapterSystem`,
`InfallibleSystemWrapper`, and `InfallibleObserverWrapper`. That seems
like a lot of extra code just to preserve a confusing special case!
Remove some implementations of `System::run` that are no longer
necessary with this change. This slightly changes the behavior of
`PipeSystem` and `CombinatorSystem`: Currently `run` will call
`apply_deferred` on the first system before running the second, but
after this change it will only call it after *both* systems have run.
The new behavior is consistent with `run_unsafe` and
`run_without_applying_deferred`, and restores the behavior prior to
#11823.
The panic was originally necessary because [`run_unsafe` took
`&World`](https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/6083/files#diff-708dfc60ec5eef432b20a6f471357a7ea9bfb254dc2f918d5ed4a66deb0e85baR90).
Now that it takes `UnsafeWorldCell`, it is possible to make it work. See
also Cart's concerns at
https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/4166#discussion_r979140356,
although those also predate `UnsafeWorldCell`.
And see #6698 for a previous bug caused by this panic.
# Objective
Make it easier to short-circuit system parameter validation.
Simplify the API surface by combining `ValidationOutcome` with
`SystemParamValidationError`.
## Solution
Replace `ValidationOutcome` with `Result<(),
SystemParamValidationError>`. Move the docs from `ValidationOutcome` to
`SystemParamValidationError`.
Add a `skipped` field to `SystemParamValidationError` to distinguish the
`Skipped` and `Invalid` variants.
Use the `?` operator to short-circuit validation in tuples of system
params.
# Objective
When introduced, `Single` was intended to simply be silently skipped,
allowing for graceful and efficient handling of systems during invalid
game states (such as when the player is dead).
However, this also caused missing resources to *also* be silently
skipped, leading to confusing and very hard to debug failures. In
0.15.1, this behavior was reverted to a panic, making missing resources
easier to debug, but largely making `Single` (and `Populated`)
worthless, as they would panic during expected game states.
Ultimately, the consensus is that this behavior should differ on a
per-system-param basis. However, there was no sensible way to *do* that
before this PR.
## Solution
Swap `SystemParam::validate_param` from a `bool` to:
```rust
/// The outcome of system / system param validation,
/// used by system executors to determine what to do with a system.
pub enum ValidationOutcome {
/// All system parameters were validated successfully and the system can be run.
Valid,
/// At least one system parameter failed validation, and an error must be handled.
/// By default, this will result in1 a panic. See [crate::error] for more information.
///
/// This is the default behavior, and is suitable for system params that should *always* be valid,
/// either because sensible fallback behavior exists (like [`Query`] or because
/// failures in validation should be considered a bug in the user's logic that must be immediately addressed (like [`Res`]).
Invalid,
/// At least one system parameter failed validation, but the system should be skipped due to [`ValidationBehavior::Skip`].
/// This is suitable for system params that are intended to only operate in certain application states, such as [`Single`].
Skipped,
}
```
Then, inside of each `SystemParam` implementation, return either Valid,
Invalid or Skipped.
Currently, only `Single`, `Option<Single>` and `Populated` use the
`Skipped` behavior. Other params (like resources) retain their current
failing
## Testing
Messed around with the fallible_params example. Added a pair of tests:
one for panicking when resources are missing, and another for properly
skipping `Single` and `Populated` system params.
## To do
- [x] get https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/pull/18454 merged
- [x] fix the todo!() in the macro-powered tuple implementation (please
help 🥺)
- [x] test
- [x] write a migration guide
- [x] update the example comments
## Migration Guide
Various system and system parameter validation methods
(`SystemParam::validate_param`, `System::validate_param` and
`System::validate_param_unsafe`) now return and accept a
`ValidationOutcome` enum, rather than a `bool`. The previous `true`
values map to `ValidationOutcome::Valid`, while `false` maps to
`ValidationOutcome::Invalid`.
However, if you wrote a custom schedule executor, you should now respect
the new `ValidationOutcome::Skipped` parameter, skipping any systems
whose validation was skipped. By contrast, `ValidationOutcome::Invalid`
systems should also be skipped, but you should call the
`default_error_handler` on them first, which by default will result in a
panic.
If you are implementing a custom `SystemParam`, you should consider
whether failing system param validation is an error or an expected
state, and choose between `Invalid` and `Skipped` accordingly. In Bevy
itself, `Single` and `Populated` now once again skip the system when
their conditions are not met. This is the 0.15.0 behavior, but stands in
contrast to the 0.15.1 behavior, where they would panic.

## Objective
Fixes#18092
Bevy's current error type is a simple type alias for `Box<dyn Error +
Send + Sync + 'static>`. This largely works as a catch-all error, but it
is missing a critical feature: the ability to capture a backtrace at the
point that the error occurs. The best way to do this is `anyhow`-style
error handling: a new error type that takes advantage of the fact that
the `?` `From` conversion happens "inline" to capture the backtrace at
the point of the error.
## Solution
This PR adds a new `BevyError` type (replacing our old
`std::error::Error` type alias), which uses the "from conversion
backtrace capture" approach:
```rust
fn oh_no() -> Result<(), BevyError> {
// this fails with Rust's built in ParseIntError, which
// is converted into the catch-all BevyError type
let number: usize = "hi".parse()?;
println!("parsed {number}");
Ok(())
}
```
This also updates our exported `Result` type alias to default to
`BevyError`, meaning you can write this instead:
```rust
fn oh_no() -> Result {
let number: usize = "hi".parse()?;
println!("parsed {number}");
Ok(())
}
```
When a BevyError is encountered in a system, it will use Bevy's default
system error handler (which panics by default). BevyError does custom
"backtrace filtering" by default, meaning we can cut out the _massive_
amount of "rust internals", "async executor internals", and "bevy system
scheduler internals" that show up in backtraces. It also trims out the
first generally-unnecssary `From` conversion backtrace lines that make
it harder to locate the real error location. The result is a blissfully
simple backtrace by default:
The full backtrace can be shown by setting the `BEVY_BACKTRACE=full`
environment variable. Non-BevyError panics still use the default Rust
backtrace behavior.
One issue that prevented the truly noise-free backtrace during panics
that you see above is that Rust's default panic handler will print the
unfiltered (and largely unhelpful real-panic-point) backtrace by
default, in _addition_ to our filtered BevyError backtrace (with the
helpful backtrace origin) that we capture and print. To resolve this, I
have extended Bevy's existing PanicHandlerPlugin to wrap the default
panic handler. If we panic from the result of a BevyError, we will skip
the default "print full backtrace" panic handler. This behavior can be
enabled and disabled using the new `error_panic_hook` cargo feature in
`bevy_app` (which is enabled by default).
One downside to _not_ using `Box<dyn Error>` directly is that we can no
longer take advantage of the built-in `Into` impl for strings to errors.
To resolve this, I have added the following:
```rust
// Before
Err("some error")?
// After
Err(BevyError::message("some error"))?
```
We can discuss adding shorthand methods or macros for this (similar to
anyhow's `anyhow!("some error")` macro), but I'd prefer to discuss that
later.
I have also added the following extension method:
```rust
// Before
some_option.ok_or("some error")?;
// After
some_option.ok_or_message("some error")?;
```
I've also moved all of our existing error infrastructure from
`bevy_ecs::result` to `bevy_ecs::error`, as I think that is the better
home for it
## Why not anyhow (or eyre)?
The biggest reason is that `anyhow` needs to be a "generically useful
error type", whereas Bevy is a much narrower scope. By using our own
error, we can be significantly more opinionated. For example, anyhow
doesn't do the extensive (and invasive) backtrace filtering that
BevyError does because it can't operate on Bevy-specific context, and
needs to be generically useful.
Bevy also has a lot of operational context (ex: system info) that could
be useful to attach to errors. If we have control over the error type,
we can add whatever context we want to in a structured way. This could
be increasingly useful as we add more visual / interactive error
handling tools and editor integrations.
Additionally, the core approach used is simple and requires almost no
code. anyhow clocks in at ~2500 lines of code, but the impl here uses
160. We are able to boil this down to exactly what we need, and by doing
so we improve our compile times and the understandability of our code.
This commit builds on top of the work done in #16589 and #17051, by
adding support for fallible observer systems.
As with the previous work, the actual results of the observer system are
suppressed for now, but the intention is to provide a way to handle
errors in a global way.
Until then, you can use a `PipeSystem` to manually handle results.

This pr uses the `extern crate self as` trick to make proc macros behave
the same way inside and outside bevy.
# Objective
- Removes noise introduced by `crate as` in the whole bevy repo.
- Fixes#17004.
- Hardens proc macro path resolution.
## TODO
- [x] `BevyManifest` needs cleanup.
- [x] Cleanup remaining `crate as`.
- [x] Add proper integration tests to the ci.
## Notes
- `cargo-manifest-proc-macros` is written by me and based/inspired by
the old `BevyManifest` implementation and
[`bkchr/proc-macro-crate`](https://github.com/bkchr/proc-macro-crate).
- What do you think about the new integration test machinery I added to
the `ci`?
More and better integration tests can be added at a later stage.
The goal of these integration tests is to simulate an actual separate
crate that uses bevy. Ideally they would lightly touch all bevy crates.
## Testing
- Needs RA test
- Needs testing from other users
- Others need to run at least `cargo run -p ci integration-test` and
verify that they work.

# Objective
Occasionally bevy users will want to store systems or observer systems
in a component or resource, but they first try to store `IntoSystem`
instead of `System`, which leads to some headaches having to deal with
the `M` marker type parameter. We should recommend they use the `X`
trait instead of the `IntoX` trait in that case, as well for returning
from a function.
## Solution
Add usage notes to the `IntoX` traits about using `X` instead.
# Objective
- Closes#15752
Calling the functions `App::observe` and `World::observe` doesn't make
sense because you're not "observing" the `App` or `World`, you're adding
an observer that listens for an event that occurs *within* the `World`.
We should rename them to better fit this.
## Solution
Renames:
- `App::observe` -> `App::add_observer`
- `World::observe` -> `World::add_observer`
- `Commands::observe` -> `Commands::add_observer`
- `EntityWorldMut::observe_entity` -> `EntityWorldMut::observe`
(Note this isn't a breaking change as the original rename was introduced
earlier this cycle.)
## Testing
Reusing current tests.

# Objective
- Fixes#14924
- Closes#9584
## Solution
- We introduce a new trait, `SystemInput`, that serves as a type
function from the `'static` form of the input, to its lifetime'd
version, similarly to `SystemParam` or `WorldQuery`.
- System functions now take the lifetime'd wrapped version,
`SystemInput::Param<'_>`, which prevents the issue presented in #14924
(i.e. `InRef<T>`).
- Functions for running systems now take the lifetime'd unwrapped
version, `SystemInput::Inner<'_>` (i.e. `&T`).
- Due to the above change, system piping had to be re-implemented as a
standalone type, rather than `CombinatorSystem` as it was previously.
- Removes the `Trigger<'static, E, B>` transmute in observer runner
code.
## Testing
- All current tests pass.
- Added additional tests and doc-tests.

## Showcase
```rust
let mut world = World::new();
let mut value = 2;
// Currently possible:
fn square(In(input): In<usize>) -> usize {
input * input
}
value = world.run_system_once_with(value, square);
// Now possible:
fn square_mut(InMut(input): InMut<usize>) {
*input *= *input;
}
world.run_system_once_with(&mut value, square_mut);
// Or:
fn square_ref(InRef(input): InRef<usize>) -> usize {
*input * *input
}
value = world.run_system_once_with(&value, square_ref);
```
## Migration Guide
- All current explicit usages of the following types must be changed in
the way specified:
- `SystemId<I, O>` to `SystemId<In<I>, O>`
- `System<In = T>` to `System<In = In<T>>`
- `IntoSystem<I, O, M>` to `IntoSystem<In<I>, O, M>`
- `Condition<M, T>` to `Condition<M, In<T>>`
- `In<Trigger<E, B>>` is no longer a valid input parameter type. Use
`Trigger<E, B>` directly, instead.

# Objective
Fixes https://github.com/bevyengine/bevy/issues/14157
## Solution
- Update the ObserverSystem traits to accept an `Out` parameter
## Testing
- Added a test where an observer system has a non-empty output which is
piped into another system

# Objective
- Bevy currently has lot of invalid intra-doc links, let's fix them!
- Also make CI test them, to avoid future regressions.
- Helps with #1983 (but doesn't fix it, as there could still be explicit
links to docs.rs that are broken)
## Solution
- Make `cargo r -p ci -- doc-check` check fail on warnings (could also
be changed to just some specific lints)
- Manually fix all the warnings (note that in some cases it was unclear
to me what the fix should have been, I'll try to highlight them in a
self-review)
# Objective
- Provide an expressive way to register dynamic behavior in response to
ECS changes that is consistent with existing bevy types and traits as to
provide a smooth user experience.
- Provide a mechanism for immediate changes in response to events during
command application in order to facilitate improved query caching on the
path to relations.
## Solution
- A new fundamental ECS construct, the `Observer`; inspired by flec's
observers but adapted to better fit bevy's access patterns and rust's
type system.
---
## Examples
There are 3 main ways to register observers. The first is a "component
observer" that looks like this:
```rust
world.observe(|trigger: Trigger<OnAdd, Transform>, query: Query<&Transform>| {
let transform = query.get(trigger.entity()).unwrap();
});
```
The above code will spawn a new entity representing the observer that
will run it's callback whenever the `Transform` component is added to an
entity. This is a system-like function that supports dependency
injection for all the standard bevy types: `Query`, `Res`, `Commands`
etc. It also has a `Trigger` parameter that provides information about
the trigger such as the target entity, and the event being triggered.
Importantly these systems run during command application which is key
for their future use to keep ECS internals up to date. There are similar
events for `OnInsert` and `OnRemove`, and this will be expanded with
things such as `ArchetypeCreated`, `TableEmpty` etc. in follow up PRs.
Another way to register an observer is an "entity observer" that looks
like this:
```rust
world.entity_mut(entity).observe(|trigger: Trigger<Resize>| {
// ...
});
```
Entity observers run whenever an event of their type is triggered
targeting that specific entity. This type of observer will de-spawn
itself if the entity (or entities) it is observing is ever de-spawned so
as to not leave dangling observers.
Entity observers can also be spawned from deferred contexts such as
other observers, systems, or hooks using commands:
```rust
commands.entity(entity).observe(|trigger: Trigger<Resize>| {
// ...
});
```
Observers are not limited to in built event types, they can be used with
any type that implements `Event` (which has been extended to implement
Component). This means events can also carry data:
```rust
#[derive(Event)]
struct Resize { x: u32, y: u32 }
commands.entity(entity).observe(|trigger: Trigger<Resize>, query: Query<&mut Size>| {
let event = trigger.event();
// ...
});
// Will trigger the observer when commands are applied.
commands.trigger_targets(Resize { x: 10, y: 10 }, entity);
```
You can also trigger events that target more than one entity at a time:
```rust
commands.trigger_targets(Resize { x: 10, y: 10 }, [e1, e2]);
```
Additionally, Observers don't _need_ entity targets:
```rust
app.observe(|trigger: Trigger<Quit>| {
})
commands.trigger(Quit);
```
In these cases, `trigger.entity()` will be a placeholder.
Observers are actually just normal entities with an `ObserverState` and
`Observer` component! The `observe()` functions above are just shorthand
for:
```rust
world.spawn(Observer::new(|trigger: Trigger<Resize>| {});
```
This will spawn the `Observer` system and use an `on_add` hook to add
the `ObserverState` component.
Dynamic components and trigger types are also fully supported allowing
for runtime defined trigger types.
## Possible Follow-ups
1. Deprecate `RemovedComponents`, observers should fulfill all use cases
while being more flexible and performant.
2. Queries as entities: Swap queries to entities and begin using
observers listening to archetype creation triggers to keep their caches
in sync, this allows unification of `ObserverState` and `QueryState` as
well as unlocking several API improvements for `Query` and the
management of `QueryState`.
3. Trigger bubbling: For some UI use cases in particular users are
likely to want some form of bubbling for entity observers, this is
trivial to implement naively but ideally this includes an acceleration
structure to cache hierarchy traversals.
4. All kinds of other in-built trigger types.
5. Optimization; in order to not bloat the complexity of the PR I have
kept the implementation straightforward, there are several areas where
performance can be improved. The focus for this PR is to get the
behavior implemented and not incur a performance cost for users who
don't use observers.
I am leaving each of these to follow up PR's in order to keep each of
them reviewable as this already includes significant changes.
