Example

'events'    => [
    'onActivate' => '\OxidEsales\ModuleTemplate\Core\ModuleEvents::onActivate',
    'onDeactivate' => '\OxidEsales\ModuleTemplate\Core\ModuleEvents::onDeactivate'
],

Important

If you want to use your module services in the onActivate method the ContainerFactory should not be used for getting your services, because they aren’t included in the container from the ContainerFactory during the activation process. You have to get a new container from the ContainerBuilderFactory. See an example below:

public static function onActivate(): void
{
    $container = (new ContainerBuilderFactory())->create()->getContainer();
    $container->compile();

    $myService = $container->get('<service-id>');
    $myService->doSomething();
}
