[Python] How to implement WebDriver Event Listeners in Robot Framework

I'm new to Robot Framework. I'm trying to implement WebDriver Event Listeners by importing Selenium Library.

In my Test case, I have this import

Library SeleniumLibrary event_firing_webdriver=${CURDIR}/RobotFrameworkListener.py


In RobotFrameworkListener.py file,

from robot.api import logger
from selenium.webdriver.support.events import AbstractEventListener
from robot.libraries.BuiltIn import BuiltIn
from selenium.webdriver.support.events import EventFiringWebDriver

selib = BuiltIn().get_library_instance("SeleniumLibrary")
driver = selib.driver

class RobotFrameworkListener(AbstractEventListener):
def before_navigate_to(self, url, driver):
logger.info("URL before navigation: '%s'." % url)
def after_navigate_to(self, url, driver):
logger.info("URL after navigation: '%s'." % driver.current_url)
def before_change_value_of(self, element, driver):
dict= element.get_property('attributes')
element_value = dict[2]['value']
logger.info("Before clearing/entering the text field '%s'." % element_value)
def after_change_value_of(self, element, driver):
dict= element.get_property('attributes')
element_value = dict[2]['value']
logger.info("After clearing/entering the text field '%s'." % element_value)


So could some one help me on how to trigger listeners for my main Test case so that I can do an action on web driver events like after click, before click, after entering the text etc? Let me know if there is any other way to do it Thanks in advance!
