Triggers does not yet exist in pkg, it is a really useful feature (rather
complex to get done properly), but I am affraid that this is really low on the
TODO list please open a ticket on our github so maybe a volunteer will come in
and work on that suggest ( we are a small team and there is lot of things to
work on in pkg)
