Public Methods

Method Description
URIbase ( boolean $pathonly = false ) : string Returns the base URI for the request.
URIroot ( boolean $pathonly = false, string $path = null ) : string Returns the root URI for the request.
authorise ( string $action, string $assetname ) : boolean Perform an ACL check.
authorizeAdmin ( string $component ) : boolean Authorise access to the component in the back-end.
checkExecution ( ) : boolean Checks if the current script is run inside a valid CMS execution
clearCache ( ) : boolean Clears the cache of system-wide F0F data. You are supposed to call this in your components' installation script post-installation and post-upgrade methods or whenever you are modifying the structure of database tables accessed by F0F. Please note that F0F's cache never expires and is not purged by Joomla!. You MUST use this method to manually purge the cache.
closeApplication ( integer $code ) : void Immediately terminate the containing application's execution
getCache ( string $key, string $default = null ) : string Retrieves data from the cache. This is supposed to be used for system-side F0F data, not application data.
getComponentBaseDirs ( string $component ) : array Returns the base (root) directories for a given component.
getConfig ( ) : JRegistry Returns an object that holds the configuration of the current site.
getDate ( mixed $time = 'now', null $tzOffest = null, boolean $locale = true ) : JDate Returns an object to handle dates

getDocument ( ) : JDocument Returns the JDocument object which handles this component's response.
getLanguage ( ) : JLanguage Return the \JLanguage instance of the CMS/application

getTemplate ( boolean | array $params = false ) : string Returns the application's template name
getTemplateOverridePath ( string $component, boolean $absolute = true ) : string Return the absolute path to the application's template overrides directory for a specific component. We will use it to look for template files instead of the regular component directories. If the application does not have such a thing as template overrides return an empty string.
getTemplateSuffixes ( ) : array Get application-specific suffixes to use with template paths. This allows you to look for view template overrides based on the application version.
getUser ( integer $id = null ) : JUser Return a user object.
getUserStateFromRequest ( string $key, string $request, Input $input, mixed $default = null, string $type = 'none', boolean $setUserState = true ) : mixed This method will try retrieving a variable from the request (input) data.

logAddLogger ( string $file ) : void Add a log file for FOF

supportsAjaxOrdering ( ) : boolean Is AJAX re-ordering supported? This is 100% Joomla!-CMS specific. All other platforms should return false and never ask why.
