interface ConditionInterface implements ExecutableInterface, PluginFormInterface, ConfigurableInterface, DependentPluginInterface, ConfigurablePluginInterface, PluginInspectionInterface, CacheableDependencyInterface (View source)

An interface for condition plugins.

Condition plugins are context-aware and configurable. They support the following keys in their plugin definitions:

  • context: An array of context definitions, keyed by context name. Each context definition is a typed data definition describing the context. Check the typed data definition docs for details.
  • configuration: An array of configuration option definitions, keyed by option name. Each option definition is a typed data definition describing the configuration option. Check the typed data definition docs for details.

Replace the dependency on \Drupal\Core\Form\FormInterface with a new interface from https://www.drupal.org/node/2006248. WARNING: The condition API is going to receive some additions before release. The following additions are likely to happen: - The way configuration is handled and configuration forms are built is likely to change in order for the plugin to be of use for Rules. - Conditions will receive a data processing API that allows for token replacements to happen outside of the plugin implementations, see https://www.drupal.org/node/2347023. - Conditions will have to implement access control for checking who is allowed to configure or perform the action at https://www.drupal.org/node/2172017.

Methods

execute()

Executes the plugin.

array
buildConfigurationForm(array $form, FormStateInterface $form_state)

Form constructor.

validateConfigurationForm(array $form, FormStateInterface $form_state)

Form validation handler.

submitConfigurationForm(array $form, FormStateInterface $form_state)

Form submission handler.

array
getConfiguration()

Gets this plugin's configuration.

setConfiguration(array $configuration)

Sets the configuration for this plugin instance.

array
defaultConfiguration()

Gets default configuration for this plugin.

array
calculateDependencies()

Calculates dependencies for the configured plugin.

string
getPluginId()

Gets the plugin_id of the plugin instance.

array
getPluginDefinition()

Gets the definition of the plugin implementation.

string[]
getCacheContexts()

The cache contexts associated with this object.

string[]
getCacheTags()

The cache tags associated with this object.

int
getCacheMaxAge()

The maximum age for which this object may be cached.

bool
isNegated()

Details

execute()

Executes the plugin.

array buildConfigurationForm(array $form, FormStateInterface $form_state)

Form constructor.

Plugin forms are embedded in other forms. In order to know where the plugin form is located in the parent form, #parents and #array_parents must be known, but these are not available during the initial build phase. In order to have these properties available when building the plugin form's elements, let this method return a form element that has a #process callback and build the rest of the form in the callback. By the time the callback is executed, the element's #parents and #array_parents properties will have been set by the form API. For more documentation on #parents and

array_parents, see \Drupal\Core\Render\Element\FormElement.

Parameters

array $form

An associative array containing the initial structure of the plugin form.

FormStateInterface $form_state

The current state of the form. Calling code should pass on a subform state created through \Drupal\Core\Form\SubformState::createForSubform().

Return Value

array

The form structure.

validateConfigurationForm(array $form, FormStateInterface $form_state)

Form validation handler.

Parameters

array $form

An associative array containing the structure of the plugin form as built by static::buildConfigurationForm().

FormStateInterface $form_state

The current state of the form. Calling code should pass on a subform state created through \Drupal\Core\Form\SubformState::createForSubform().

submitConfigurationForm(array $form, FormStateInterface $form_state)

Form submission handler.

Parameters

array $form

An associative array containing the structure of the plugin form as built by static::buildConfigurationForm().

FormStateInterface $form_state

The current state of the form. Calling code should pass on a subform state created through \Drupal\Core\Form\SubformState::createForSubform().

array getConfiguration()

Gets this plugin's configuration.

Return Value

array

An array of this plugin's configuration.

setConfiguration(array $configuration)

Sets the configuration for this plugin instance.

Parameters

array $configuration

An associative array containing the plugin's configuration.

array defaultConfiguration()

Gets default configuration for this plugin.

Return Value

array

An associative array with the default configuration.

array calculateDependencies()

Calculates dependencies for the configured plugin.

Dependencies are saved in the plugin's configuration entity and are used to determine configuration synchronization order. For example, if the plugin integrates with specific user roles, this method should return an array of dependencies listing the specified roles.

Return Value

array

An array of dependencies grouped by type (config, content, module, theme). For example: @code array( 'config' => array('user.role.anonymous', 'user.role.authenticated'), 'content' => array('node:article:f0a189e6-55fb-47fb-8005-5bef81c44d6d'), 'module' => array('node', 'user'), 'theme' => array('seven'), ); @endcode

EntityInterface::getConfigDependencyName

string getPluginId()

Gets the plugin_id of the plugin instance.

Return Value

string

The plugin_id of the plugin instance.

array getPluginDefinition()

Gets the definition of the plugin implementation.

Return Value

array

The plugin definition, as returned by the discovery object used by the plugin manager.

string[] getCacheContexts()

The cache contexts associated with this object.

These identify a specific variation/representation of the object.

Cache contexts are tokens: placeholders that are converted to cache keys by the @cache_contexts_manager service. The replacement value depends on the request context (the current URL, language, and so on). They're converted before storing an object in cache.

Return Value

string[]

An array of cache context tokens, used to generate a cache ID.

CacheContextsManager::convertTokensToKeys

string[] getCacheTags()

The cache tags associated with this object.

When this object is modified, these cache tags will be invalidated.

Return Value

string[]

A set of cache tags.

int getCacheMaxAge()

The maximum age for which this object may be cached.

Return Value

int

The maximum time in seconds that this object may be cached.

bool isNegated()

Determines whether condition result will be negated.

Return Value

bool

Whether the condition result will be negated.

bool evaluate()

Evaluates the condition and returns TRUE or FALSE accordingly.

Return Value

bool

TRUE if the condition has been met, FALSE otherwise.

summary()

Provides a human readable summary of the condition's configuration.

setExecutableManager(ExecutableManagerInterface $executableManager)

Sets the executable manager class.

Parameters

ExecutableManagerInterface $executableManager

The executable manager.
