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

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.

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.

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.
