Array of token => replacement_value items.

Return Value

string

array getAvailableGlobalTokens(bool $prepared = FALSE, array $types = [])

Parameters

bool $prepared

Whether to return the raw token info for each token or an array of prepared tokens for each type. E.g. "[view:name]".

FormStateInterface $form_state

The current state of the form.

static array preRenderAddFieldsetMarkup(array $form)

Moves form elements into fieldsets for presentation purposes.

Many views forms use #tree = TRUE to keep their values in a hierarchy for easier storage. Moving the form elements into fieldsets during form building would break up that hierarchy. Therefore, we wait until the pre_render stage, where any changes we make affect presentation only and aren't reflected in $form_state->getValues().

Parameters

array $form

The form build array to alter.

Return Value

array

The form build array.

static array preRenderFlattenData(array $form)

Flattens the structure of form elements.

If a form element has #flatten = TRUE, then all of its children get moved to the same level as the element itself. So $form['to_be_flattened'][$key] becomes $form[$key], and $form['to_be_flattened'] gets unset.

Parameters

array $form

The form build array to alter.

Return Value

array

The form build array.

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

string getProvider()

array $current_values

The currently-selected options in the list, if available.

Return Value

array

An array of language names, keyed by the language code. Negotiated and special languages have special codes that are substituted in queries by PluginBase::queryLanguageSubstitutions(). Only configurable languages and languages that are in $current_values are included in the list.

static array queryLanguageSubstitutions()

Returns substitutions for Views queries for languages.

This is needed so that the language options returned by PluginBase::listLanguages() are able to be used in queries. It is called by the Views module implementation of hook_views_query_substitutions() to get the language-related substitutions.

Return Value

array

An array in the format of hook_views_query_substitutions() that gives the query substitutions needed for the special language types.

bool access(AccountInterface $account)

Check whether given user has access to this handler.

Parameters

AccountInterface $account

The user account to check.

Return Value

bool

TRUE if the user has access to the handler, FALSE otherwise.

preQuery()

Run before the view is built.

This gives all the handlers some time to set up before any handler has been fully run.

postExecute($values)

Run after the view is executed, before the result is cached.

This gives all the handlers some time to modify values. This is primarily used so that handlers that pull up secondary data can put it in the $values so that the raw data can be used externally.

Parameters

$values

protected string placeholder()

Provides a unique placeholders for handlers.

Return Value

string

A placeholder which contains the table and the fieldname.

setRelationship()

Called just prior to query(), this lets a handler set up any relationship it needs.

bool isExposed()

Determine if this item is 'exposed', meaning it provides form elements to let users modify the view.

Return Value

bool

Returns TRUE if the exposed filter works like a grouped filter.

multipleExposedInput()

Returns TRUE if users can select multiple groups items of a grouped exposed filter.

acceptExposedInput($input)

Determines if the input from a filter should change the generated query.

Parameters

$input

storeExposedInput($input, $status)

If set to remember exposed input in the session, store it there.

Parameters

getJoin()

Get the join object that should be used for this handler.

This method isn't used a great deal, but it's very handy for easily getting the join if it is necessary to make some changes to it, such as adding an 'extra'.

broken()

Determines if the handler is considered 'broken', meaning it's a placeholder used when a handler can't be found.

string getDateFormat(string $format)

Creates cross-database SQL date formatting.

Parameters

$options

convertExposedInput($input, $selected_group_id = NULL)

Transform the input from a grouped filter into a standard filter.

When a filter is a group, find the set of operator and values that the chosen item represents, and inform views that a normal filter was submitted by telling the operator and the value selected.

The param $selected_group_id is only passed when the filter uses the checkboxes widget, and this function will be called for each item chosen in the checkboxes.

Parameters

$input
$selected_group_id

groupMultipleExposedInput($input)

Returns the options available for a grouped filter that users checkboxes as widget, and therefore has to be applied several times, one per item selected.

Parameters

$input

storeGroupInput($input, $status)

If set to remember exposed input in the session, store it there.

This function is similar to storeExposedInput but modified to work properly when the filter is a group.

Parameters

$input
$status

bool canGroup()

Can this filter be used in OR groups?

Some filters have complicated where clauses that cannot be easily used with OR groups. Some filters must also use HAVING which also makes them not groupable. These filters will end up in a special group if OR grouping is in use.

Return Value

bool

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.

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.

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.

static protected bool arrayFilterZero(string $var)

Parameters

string $var

The variable to evaluate.

Return Value

bool

TRUE if the value is equal to an empty string, FALSE otherwise.

array|null getValueOptions()

Child classes should be used to override this function and set the 'value options', unless 'options callback' is defined as a valid function or static public method to generate these values.

This can use a guard to be used to reduce database hits as much as possible.

Return Value

array|null

The stored values from $this->valueOptions.

operators()

This kind of construct makes it relatively easy for a child class to add or remove functionality by overriding this function and adding/removing items from this array.
