//!   for a real example), define it in the static EventT::isValid() member
//!   function accepting QJsonObject and returning bool.
//! - for leaf (specific) event types - simply use QUO_EVENT and it will do
//!   everything necessary, including the TypeId definition.
//! \sa QUO_EVENT, QUO_BASE_EVENT
template <class EventT>
class QUOTIENT_API EventMetaType : public AbstractEventMetaType {
    // Above: can't constrain EventT to be EventClass because it's incomplete
    // at the point of EventMetaType<EventT> instantiation.
public:
    using AbstractEventMetaType::AbstractEventMetaType;

    //! \brief Try to load an event from JSON, with dynamic type resolution
    //!
    //! The generic logic defined in this class template and invoked applies to
    //! all event types defined in the library and boils down to the following:
    //! 1.
    //!    a. If EventT has TypeId defined (which normally is a case of
    //!       all leaf - specific - event types, via QUO_EVENT macro) and
    //!       \p type doesn't exactly match it, nullptr is immediately returned.
    //!    b. In absence of TypeId, an event type is assumed to be a base;
    //!       its derivedTypes are examined, and this algorithm is applied
    //!       recursively on each.
    //! 2. Optional validation: if EventT (or, due to the way inheritance works,
    //!    any of its base event types) has a static isValid() predicate and
    //!    the event JSON does not satisfy it, nullptr is immediately returned
    //!    to the upper level or to the loadFrom() caller. This is how existence
    //!    of `state_key` is checked in any type derived from StateEventBase.
    //! 3. If step 1b above returned non-nullptr, immediately return it.
    //! 4.
    //!    a. If EventT::isValid() or EventT::TypeId (either, or both) exist and
    //!       are satisfied (see steps 1a and 2 above), an object of this type
    //!       is created from the passed JSON and returned. In case of a base
    //!       event type, this will be a generic (aka "unknown") event.
    //!    b. If neither exists, a generic event is only created and returned
    //!       when on the top level (i.e., outside of recursion into
    //!       derivedTypes); lower levels return nullptr instead and the type
    //!       lookup continues. The latter is a case of a derived base event
    //!       metatype (e.g. RoomEvent) called from its base event metatype
    //!       (i.e., Event). If no matching type derived from RoomEvent is found,
    //!       the nested lookup returns nullptr rather than a generic RoomEvent,
    //!       so that other types derived from Event could be examined.

//! \brief A template base class to derive your event type from
//!
//! This simple class template generates commonly used event constructor
//! signatures and the content() method with the appropriate return type.
//! The generic version here is only used with non-trivial \p ContentT (if you
//! don't need to create an event from its content structure, just go and derive
//! straight from the respective \p EventBaseT instead of using EventTemplate);
//! specialisations may override that and provide useful semantics even without
//! \p ContentT (see EventTemplate<CallEventBase>, e.g.).
//!
//! The template uses CRTP to pick the event type id from the actual class;
//! it will fail to compile if \p EventT doesn't provide TypeId. It also uses
//! the base event type's basicJson(); if you need extra keys to be inserted
//! you may want to bypass this template as writing the code to that effect in
//! your class will likely be clearer and more concise.
