How to define custom signals

[tokyob0t]

So, im trying to make a custom GObject.Object with custom props/signals but idk how to

atm i know how to define custom props

local MyClass = GObject.Object:derive('MyClass')

MyClass._property.my_property =
    GObject.ParamSpecString('my_property', 'my_property', 'my_property', '', { 'READWRITE' })

MyClass._signal.my_signal = {} -- ????? idk what goes here

local obj = MyClass { my_property = 'Hello, World!' }
obj.my_property = 'New Value'

obj.on_my_signal = function() end -- do something

Huh, looks like LuaGObject lacks a way to define custom signals.

I'll have to study how PyGObject does it so I can adapt it to LuaGObject.

Ideally, I'd also want some syntactical sugar for defining signals because it seems to be quite complicated. Regardless, this is a glaring absence from LuaGObject and I'll try to rectify.
