Customer Login to Magento2 without triggering event 'customer_login'

Question

How to login a user with an E-mail to magento2 site without triggering event customer_login.

Actually, I am able to login with email using customer session but the customer session also triggers the customer_login events.

I don't want to use a trigger.

$customer = $this->_customer->loadByEmail("[email protected]"); 

$this->_customerSession->setCustomerAsLoggedIn($customer);

To modify any default functionality of magento you can simply override it's class.

Use this reference to do the same.

In this case you have to override this method.

Magento\Customer\Model\Session::setCustomerAsLoggedIn()

Remove the line from setCustomerAsLoggedIn() function which trigger 'customer_login' event.

 $this->_eventManager->dispatch('customer_login', ['customer' => $customer]);

Your function setCustomerAsLoggedIn will look like this.

 public function setCustomerAsLoggedIn($customer)
{
    $this->setCustomer($customer);
    $this->_eventManager->dispatch('customer_data_object_login', ['customer' => $this->getCustomerDataObject()]);
    $this->regenerateId();
    return $this;
}

I hope it will helps you. And let me know if you need further help.
