Research direction

Start by comparing the Rule class definition, the ruleEvent object, the JavaScript getEvent() method, and the index.d.ts declaration mentioned in the issue. Trace how event data is represented and exposed, then verify whether the public behavior and type declarations agree; done means the supported way to access event data is clear and accurately represented.

Description

Hello,

I'm working on a project in node that uses your rule engine, and I've noticed something that I can't understand.

The Rule class definition implements:
export class Rule implements RuleProperties { event: Event; }

But the Rule object uses
ruleEvent: {}

Trying to access a rule's events with rule.event returns nothing (as expected).

I've looked at the js code and there's a method getEvent(), that is not in index.d.ts.
What's the reason for all of this?
It seems it's impossible to access the event data.
