Interface TriggerProfile

All Superinterfaces:

Profile

@NonNullByDefault
public interface TriggerProfile
extends Profile

A TriggerProfile specifies the communication between the framework and the handler for trigger channels. Although trigger channels by their nature do not have a state, it becomes possible to link such trigger channels to items using such a profile.

The main purpose of a TriggerProfile is to listen to triggered events and use them to calculate a meaningful state.
