This method publishes a single event to the remote server and waits for acknowledgement. Args: stream: The stream to publish the event to. type: the event's type. body: a serializable body for the event. id: a unique id for the event. PhotonPump will automatically generate an id if none is provided. metadata: Optional serializable metadata block for the event. expected_version: Used for concurrency control. If a positive integer is provided, EventStore will check that the stream is at that version before accepting a write. There are three magic values: -4: StreamMustExist. Checks that the stream already exists. -2: Any. Disables concurrency checks -1: NoStream. Checks that the stream does not yet exist. 0: EmptyStream. Checks that the stream has been explicitly created but does not yet contain any events. require_master: If true, slave nodes will reject this message. Examples: """
