controller.onViewWillAppear {
    print("viewWillAppear was called!")
}

This extension is very useful when composing view controllers with other modules. For example:

let analytics = ItemsAnalytics()
itemsListController.onViewDidAppear(run: analytics.reportListPageView)

You can also stop receiving messages by removing observers:

let service = ItemsService()
let observer = controller.onViewWillAppear(run: service.reloadItems)
observer.remove()
