Return events on sendTransaction

[naumenkogs]

Is there a way to obtain generated events on sendTransaction call (in the same way I get it from contract.methods.method_name.send())?

This could be useful to observe events on deferred transactions (since I can't use regular send() on contract in this case) or when transfer goes through a fallback payable function (for example token minting generates events)?

That's what I'm getting now as a result from sendTransaction:

This should be implemented when the PR #2000 is merged and released.

Sorry I didn't see that you were meaning the eth.sendTransaction. Sadly, this isn't possible. Just use the contract methods if you would like to have these events decoded.
