Lifespan Events#

Sometimes you need to define the logic that should be executed before launching the application. This means that the code will be executed once - even before your application starts receiving messages.

Also, you may need to terminate some processes after stopping the application. In this case, your code will also be executed exactly once: but after the completion of the main application.

Since this code is executed before the application starts and after it stops, it covers the entire lifecycle (lifespan) of the application.

This can be very useful for initializing your application settings at startup, raising a pool of connections to a database, or running machine learning models.
