/**
|
||
* @defgroup views_handlers About Views handlers
|
||
* @{
|
||
* In Views, a handler is an object that is part of the view and is part of the
|
||
* query building flow.
|
||
*
|
||
* Handlers are objects; much of the time, the base handlers will work, but
|
||
* often you'll need to override the handler to achieve something meaningful.
|
||
* One typical handler override will be views_handler_filter_operator_in which
|
||
* allows you to have a filter select from a list of options; you'll need to
|
||
* override this to provide your list.
|
||
*
|
||
* Handlers have two distinct code flows; the UI flow and the view building
|
||
* flow.
|
||
*
|
||
* For the query flow:
|
||
* - handler->construct()
|
||
* - Create the initial handler; at this time it is not yet attached to a
|
||
* view. It is here that you can set basic defaults if needed, but there
|
||
* will be no knowledge of the environment yet.
|
||
* - handler->set_definition()
|
||
* - Set the data from hook_views_data() relevant to the handler.
|
||
* - handler->init()
|
||
* - Attach the handler to a view, and usually provides the options from the
|
||
* display.
|
||
* - handler->pre_query()
|
||
* - Run prior to the query() stage to do early processing.
|
||
* - handler->query()
|
||
* - Do the bulk of the work this handler needs to do to add itself to the
|
||
* query.
|
||
*
|
||
* Fields, being the only handlers concerned with output, also have an extended
|
||
* piece of the flow:
|
||
*
|
||
* - handler->pre_render(&$values)
|
||
* - Called prior to the actual rendering, this allows handlers to query for
|
||
* extra data; the entire resultset is available here, and this is where
|
||
* items that have "multiple values" per record can do their extra query for
|
||
* all of the records available. There are several examples of this at work
|
||
* in the code, see for example views_handler_field_user_roles.
|
||
* - handler->render()
|
||
* - This does the actual work of rendering the field.
|
||
*
|
||
* Most handlers are just extensions of existing classes with a few tweaks that
|
||
* are specific to the field in question. For example,
|
||
* views_handler_filter_in_operator provides a simple mechanism to set a
|
||
* multiple-value list for setting filter values. Below,
|
||
* views_handler_filter_node_type overrides the list options, but inherits
|
||
* everything else.
|
||
*
|
||
* @code
|
||
* class views_handler_filter_node_type extends views_handler_filter_in_operator {
|
||
* function get_value_options() {
|
||
* if (!isset($this->value_options)) {
|
||
* $this->value_title = t('Node type');
|
||
* $types = node_get_types();
|
||
* foreach ($types as $type => $info) {
|
||
* $options[$type] = $info->name;
|
||
* }
|
||
* $this->value_options = $options;
|
||
* }
|
||
* }
|
||
* }
|
||
* @endcode
|
||
*
|
||
* Handlers are stored in their own files and loaded on demand. Like all other
|
||
* module files, they must first be registered through the module's info file.
|
||
* For example:
|
||
*
|
||
* @code
|
||
* name = Example module
|
||
* description = "Gives an example of a module."
|
||
* core = 7.x
|
||
* files[] = example.module
|
||
* files[] = example.install
|
||
*
|
||
* ; Views handlers
|
||
* files[] = includes/views/handlers/example_handler_argument_string.inc
|
||
* @endcode
|
||
*
|
||
* The best place to learn more about handlers and how they work is to explore
|
||
* @link views_handlers Views' handlers @endlink and use existing handlers as a
|
||
* guide and a model. Understanding how views_handler and its child classes work
|
||
* is handy but you can do a lot just following these models. You can also
|
||
* explore the views module directory, particularly node.views.inc.
|
||
*
|
||
* Please note that while all handler names in views are prefixed with views_,
|
||
* you should use your own module's name to prefix your handler names in order
|
||
* to ensure namespace safety. Note that the basic pattern for handler naming
|
||
* goes like this:
|
||
*
|
||
* [module]_handler_[type]_[tablename]_[fieldname].
|
||
*
|
||
* Sometimes table and fieldname are not appropriate, but something that
|
||
* resembles what the table/field would be can be used.

/**
|
||
* @defgroup views_plugins About Views plugins
|
||
*
|
||
* In Views, a plugin is a bit like a handler, but plugins are not directly
|
||
* responsible for building the query. Instead, they are objects that are used
|
||
* to display the view or make other modifications.
|
||
*
|
||
* There are 10 types of plugins in Views:
|
||
* - Display: Display plugins are responsible for controlling *where* a view
|
||
* lives; that is, how they are being exposed to other parts of Drupal. Page
|
||
* and block are the most common displays, as well as the ubiquitous 'master'
|
||
* (or 'default') display.
|
||
* - Style: Style plugins control how a view is displayed. For the most part
|
||
* they are object wrappers around theme templates. Styles could for example
|
||
* be HTML lists or tables.
|
||
* - Row style: Row styles handle each individual record from the main view
|
||
* table. The two included by default render the entire entity (nodes only),
|
||
* or selected fields.
|
||
* - Argument default: Argument default plugins allow pluggable ways of
|
||
* providing default values for contextual filters (previously 'arguments').
|
||
* This is useful for blocks and other display types lacking a natural
|
||
* argument input. Examples are plugins to extract node and user IDs from the
|
||
* URL.
|
||
* - Argument validator: Validator plugins can ensure arguments are valid, and
|
||
* even do transformations on the arguments. They can also provide replacement
|
||
* patterns for the view title. For example, the 'content' validator
|
||
* verifies verifies that the argument value corresponds to a node, loads
|
||
* that node and provides the node title as a replacement pattern.
|
||
* - Access: Access plugins are responsible for controlling access to the view.
|
||
* Views includes plugins for checking user roles and individual permissions.
|
||
* - Query: Query plugins generate and execute a query, so they can be seen as
|
||
* a data backend. The default implementation is using SQL. There are
|
||
* contributed modules reading data from other sources, see for example the
|
||
* Views XML Backend module.
|
||
* - Cache: Cache plugins control the storage and loading of caches. Currently
|
||
* they can do both result and render caching, but maybe one day cache the
|
||
* generated query.
|
||
* - Pager plugins: Pager plugins take care of everything regarding pagers.
|
||
* From getting and setting the total amount of items to render the pager and
|
||
* setting the global pager arrays.
|
||
* - Exposed form plugins: Exposed form plugins are responsible for building,
|
||
* rendering and controlling exposed forms. They can expose new parts of the
|
||
* view to the user and more.
|
||
* - Localization plugins: Localization plugins take care how the view options
|
||
* are translated. There are example implementations for t(), 'no
|
||
* translation' and i18n.
|
||
* - Display extenders: Display extender plugins allow scaling of views options
|
||
* horizontally. This means that you can add options and do stuff on all
|
||
* views displays. One theoretical example is metatags for views.
|
||
*
|
||
* Plugins are registered by implementing hook_views_plugins() in your
|
||
* modulename.views.inc file and returning an array of data.
|
||
* For examples please look at views_views_plugins() in
|
||
* views/includes/plugins.inc as it has examples for all of them.
|
||
*
|
||
* Similar to handlers, make sure that you add your plugin files to the
|
||
* module.info file.
|
||
*
|
||
* The array defining plugins will look something like this:
|
||
* @code
|
||
* return array(
|
||
* 'display' => array(
|
||
* // ... list of display plugins,
|
||
* ),
|
||
* 'style' => array(
|
||
* // ... list of style plugins,
|
||
* ),
|
||
* 'row' => array(
|
||
* // ... list of row style plugins,
|
||
* ),
|
||
* 'argument default' => array(
|
||
* // ... list of argument default plugins,
|
||
* ),
|
||
* 'argument validator' => array(
|
||
* // ... list of argument validator plugins,
|
||
* ),
|
||
* 'access' => array(
|
||
* // ... list of access plugins,
|
||
* ),
|
||
* 'query' => array(
|
||
* // ... list of query plugins,
|
||
* ),,
|
||
* 'cache' => array(
|
||
* // ... list of cache plugins,
|
||
* ),,
|
||
* 'pager' => array(
|
||
* // ... list of pager plugins,
|
||
* ),,
|
||
* 'exposed_form' => array(
|
||
* // ... list of exposed_form plugins,
|
||
* ),,
|
||
* 'localization' => array(
|
||
* // ... list of localization plugins,
|
||
* ),
|
||
* 'display_extender' => array(
|
||
* // ... list of display extender plugins,
|
||
* ),
|
||
* );
|
||
* @endcode
|
||
*
|
||
* Each plugin will be registered with an identifier for the plugin, plus a
|
||
* fairly lengthy list of items that can define how and where the plugin is
|
||
* used. Here is an example of a row style plugin from Views core:
|
||
* @code
|
||
* 'node' => array(
|
||
* 'title' => t('Node'),
|
||
* 'help' => t('Display the node with standard node view.'),
|
||
* 'handler' => 'views_plugin_row_node_view',
|
||
* 'path' => drupal_get_path('module', 'views') . '/modules/node', // not necessary for most modules
|
||
* 'theme' => 'views_view_row_node',
|
||
* 'base' => array('node'), // only works with 'node' as base.
|
||
* 'uses options' => TRUE,
|
||
* 'type' => 'normal',
|
||
* ),
|
||
* @endcode
|
||
*
|
||
* Of particular interest is the *path* directive, which works a little
|
||
* differently from handler registration; each plugin must define its own path,
|
||
* rather than relying on a global info for the paths. For example:
|
||
* @code
|
||
* 'feed' => array(
|
||
* 'title' => t('Feed'),
|
||
* 'help' => t('Display the view as a feed, such as an RSS feed.'),
|
||
* 'handler' => 'views_plugin_display_feed',
|
||
* 'uses hook menu' => TRUE,
|
||
* 'use ajax' => FALSE,
|
||
* 'use pager' => FALSE,
|
||
* 'accept attachments' => FALSE,
|
||
* 'admin' => t('Feed'),
|
||
* 'help topic' => 'display-feed',
|
||
* ),
|
||
* @endcode
|
||
*
|
||
* Please be sure to prefix your plugin identifiers with your module name to
|
||
* ensure namespace safety; after all, two different modules could try to
|
||
* implement the 'grid2' plugin, and that would cause one plugin to completely
|
||
* fail.
|
||
*

* @todo Finish this document.

/**
|
||
* Describes plugins defined by the module.
|

*
|
||
* This hook should be placed in MODULENAME.views.inc and it will be
|
||
* auto-loaded. MODULENAME.views.inc must be in the directory specified by the
|
||
* 'path' key returned by MODULENAME_views_api(), or the same directory as the
|
||
* .module file, if 'path' is unspecified.
|
||
*
|
||
* @return
|
||
* An array on the form $plugins['PLUGIN TYPE']['PLUGIN NAME']. The plugin
|
||
* must be one of row, display, display_extender, style, argument default,
|
||
* argument validator, access, query, cache, pager, exposed_form or
|
||
* localization. The plugin name should be prefixed with your module name.
|
||
* The value for each entry is an associateive array that may contain the
|
||
* following entries:
|
||
* - Used by all plugin types:
|
||
* - title (required): The name of the plugin, as shown in Views. Wrap in
|
||
* t().
|
||
* - handler (required): The name of the file containing the class
|
||
* describing the handler, which must also be the name of the handler's
|
||
* class.
|
||
* - path: Path to the handler. Only required if the handler is not placed
|
||
* in the same folder as the .module file or in the subfolder 'views'.
|
||
* - parent: The name of the plugin this plugin extends. Since Drupal 7 this
|
||
* is no longer required, but may still be useful from a code readability
|
||
* perspective.
|
||
* - no ui: Set to TRUE to denote that the plugin doesn't appear to be
|
||
* selectable in the ui, though on the api side they still exists.
|
||
* - uses options: Set to TRUE to denote that the plugin has an additional
|
||
* options form.
|
||
* - help: A short help text, wrapped in t() used as description on the plugin settings form.
|
||
* - help topic: The name of an entry by advanced help for the plugin.
|
||
* - theme: The name of a theme suggestion to use for the display.
|
||
* - js: An array with paths to js files that should be included for the
|
||
* display. Note that the path should be relative Drupal root, not module
|
||
* root.
|
||
* - type: Each plugin can specify a type parameter to group certain
|
||
* plugins together. For example all row plugins related to feeds are
|
||
* grouped together, because a rss style plugin only accepts feed row
|
||
* plugins.
|
||
*
|
||
* - Used by display plugins:
|
||
* - admin: The administrative name of the display, as displayed on the
|
||
* Views overview and also used as default name for new displays. Wrap in
|
||
* t().
|
||
* - no remove: Set to TRUE to make the display non-removable. (Basically
|
||
* only used for the master/default display.)
|
||
* - use ajax: Set to TRUE to allow AJAX loads in the display. If it's
|
||
* disabled there will be no ajax option in the ui.
|
||
* - use pager: Set to TRUE to allow paging in the display.
|
||
* - use more: Set to TRUE to allow the 'use more' setting in the display.
|
||
* - accept attachments: Set to TRUE to allow attachment displays to be
|
||
* attached to this display type.
|
||
* - contextual links locations: An array with places where contextual links
|
||
* should be added. Can for example be 'page' or 'block'. If you don't
|
||
* specify it there will be contextual links around the rendered view. If
|
||
* this is not set or regions have been specified, views will display an
|
||
* option to 'hide contextual links'. Use an empty array if you do not want
|
||
* this.
|
||
* - uses hook menu: Set to TRUE to have the display included by
|
||
* views_menu_alter(). views_menu_alter executes then execute_hook_menu
|
||
* on the display object.
|
||
* - uses hook block: Set to TRUE to have the display included by
|
||
* views_block_info().
|
||
* - theme: The name of a theme suggestion to use for the display.
|
||
* - js: An array with paths to js files that should be included for the
|
||
* display. Note that the path should be relative Drupal root, not module
|
||
* root.
|
||
*
|
||
* - Used by style plugins:
|
||
* - uses row plugin: Set to TRUE to allow row plugins for this style.
|
||
* - uses row class: Set to TRUE to allow the CSS class settings for rows.
|
||
* - uses fields: Set to TRUE to have the style plugin accept field
|
||
* handlers.
|
||
* - uses grouping: Set to TRUE to allow the grouping settings for rows.
|
||
* - even empty: May have the value 'even empty' to tell Views that the style
|
||
* should be rendered even if there are no results.
|
||
*
|
||
* - Used by row plugins:
|
||
* - uses fields: Set to TRUE to have the row plugin accept field handlers.
