Return values
void

addAlternativePluginFolder()

A path to a specific folder in which should be search for plugins.

public static addAlternativePluginFolder(mixed $sPluginFolder) : void

Tags
Return values
void

addLicenseFields()

This method will be called by the install Dialog to add all necessary license input fields.

public addLicenseFields(CSLicense $csLicense) : mixed

It it is not overwritten, there is only one checkbox for activating and deactivating the module

Parameters

the current object where fields can be added using the addLicenseField method

Tags
public
Return values
mixed

checkLicense()

This method will be called sometimes by the LicenseCheck to check if the state of the project matches the license settings for this module.

public checkLicense() : string

As default behaviour it checks all numeric values with the getCurrentLicenseCount method.

An error message which is later displayed, should be returned, if it doesn't match.

Tags
public
Return values
string

an error message which should be displayed as alert warning

getAlternativePluginFolder()

public static getAlternativePluginFolder() : array<string|int, mixed>
Tags
Return values
array<string|int, mixed>

getCurrentLicenseCount()

This method will be called sometimes by the default checkLicense method to get the current value for a numeric licenseField, which must be checked, e.g. with a Database query.

public getCurrentLicenseCount(string $fieldName) : int
Parameters
$fieldName : string

the name of the license field which should be checked in the form [MODULE]:[NAME].

Tags
public
Return values
int

the current count or null, if the $fieldName is not countable

getLevel()

The getLevel method may be overwritten in the plugins and defines the order, the plugins are called, where the highest level is called first.

public getLevel() : int

The method can also be set for all plugins within a module by overwriting the modules getLevel method.

Tags
Return values
int

the level of the plugin where it is called

getMetaData()

Returns the CSMetaData of the current plugin.

public getMetaData() : CSMetaData
Tags
access

public

Return values
CSMetaData

getModule()

Returns the module, if the plugin is defined within a module.

public getModule() : CSModule

This method can be used in the plugin api and the plugin wherever access to the defining module is required. If it is used in the Api, it should be noticed that this method may return null, if the plugin is directly defined in the projects or admin.local plugins directory.

Tags
Return values
CSModule

the module object, if the plugin defined in a module or null otherwise

getPlugin()

Returns a CSPlugin for the given plugin type and plugin class name.

public static getPlugin(string $pluginApiPath, string $className[, mixed $arguments = NULL ]) : CSPlugin|null

As standard behaviour the module subfolder is guessed from the forward URL parameter. If a plugin should point to something in a special module subfolder, this scope can be added by adding the module name in squared bracket at the end of the $pluginApiPath, e.g. 'core/api/plugins/CSRecordPlugin.php[pms]' to get all CSRecordPlugins defined for pms records.

Parameters
$pluginApiPath : string

The relative path in filesystem for the requested plugin api (optional: ending with the module subfolder).

$className : string

The target plugin class name, which should be loaded.
