The challenge here is the js interface is used by both js-ipfs, a full implemenation of ipfs in javascript, and js-ipfs-http-client, which is used to talk to the http api of a seperate ipfs daemon. js-ipfs could offer a reactive / evented api, but the current http api doesn't support anything other than standard http request / response. No web-sockets, no server-sent events.
There is work underway to rethink how the http client works, and there is desire to upgrade the http api to support simpler ways for clients to keep up to date with changing data, but it's not something the core team will be tackling soon. We'd welcome prototypes and proposals from the community!

If you want to do this programmatically in JS IPFS you can use:
ipfs.libp2p.on('peer:connect', peerInfo => {})
ipfs.libp2p.on('peer:disconnect', peerInfo => {})

Thank you @alanshaw Looks like the libp2p events can help. Will look into it.
