Frappe Impl Hooks

WHAT DO YOU WANT TO ACHIEVE?
│
├─► React to document lifecycle events?
│   ├─► On OTHER app's DocTypes → doc_events in hooks.py
│   ├─► On YOUR OWN DocTypes → controller methods (preferred)
│   └─► On ALL DocTypes → doc_events with "*" wildcard
│
├─► Run code on a schedule?
│   └─► scheduler_events (daily, hourly, cron, etc.)
│
├─► Modify an existing DocType's behavior?
│   ├─► V16+: extend_doctype_class (RECOMMENDED)
│   └─► V14/V15: override_doctype_class (last app wins!)
│
├─► Override an existing API endpoint?
│   └─► override_whitelisted_methods
│
├─► Add custom permission logic?
│   ├─► List filtering → permission_query_conditions
│   └─► Document-level → has_permission
│
├─► Send config data to client on page load?
│   └─► extend_bootinfo
│
├─► Export/import configuration?
│   └─► fixtures
│
├─► Add JS/CSS to desk or portal?
│   ├─► Desk-wide → app_include_js / app_include_css
│   ├─► Portal-wide → web_include_js / web_include_css
│   └─► Specific form → doctype_js
│
├─► Customize website/portal behavior?
│   └─► website_context, portal_menu_items, website_route_rules
│
└─► Hook into session/auth lifecycle?
    └─► on_login, on_session_creation, on_logout

BEFORE save: validate (every save), before_insert (new only)
AFTER save:  after_insert (new only), on_update (every save), on_change (any change)
SUBMIT flow: before_submit → on_submit → on_change
CANCEL flow: before_cancel → on_cancel → on_change
DELETE:      on_trash (before), after_delete (after)
RENAME:      before_rename, after_rename
