PHP Class Piwik\Plugin\ViewDataTable

ViewDataTable instances load analytics data via Piwik's Reporting API and then output some type of visualization of that data. Visualizations can be in any format. HTML-based visualizations should extend {@link Visualization}. Visualizations that use other formats, such as visualizations that output an image, should extend ViewDataTable directly. ### Creating ViewDataTables ViewDataTable instances are not created via the new operator, instead the {@link Piwik\ViewDataTable\Factory} class is used. The specific subclass to create is determined, first, by the **viewDataTable** query paramater. If this parameter is not set, then the default visualization type for the report being displayed is used. ### Configuring ViewDataTables **Display properties** ViewDataTable output can be customized by setting one of many available display properties. Display properties are stored as fields in {@link Piwik\ViewDataTable\Config} objects. ViewDataTables store a {@link Piwik\ViewDataTable\Config} object in the {@link $config} field. Display properties can be set at any time before rendering. **Request properties** Request properties are similar to display properties in the way they are set. They are, however, not used to customize ViewDataTable instances, but in the request to Piwik's API when loading analytics data. Request properties are set by setting the fields of a {@link Piwik\ViewDataTable\RequestConfig} object stored in the {@link $requestConfig} field. They can be set at any time before rendering. Setting them after data is loaded will have no effect. **Customizing how reports are displayed** Each individual report should be rendered in its own controller method. There are two ways to render a report within its controller method. You can either: 1. manually create and configure a ViewDataTable instance 2. invoke {@link Piwik\Plugin\Controller::renderReport} and configure the ViewDataTable instance in the {@hook ViewDataTable.configure} event. ViewDataTable instances are configured by setting and modifying display properties and request properties. ### Creating new visualizations New visualizations can be created by extending the ViewDataTable class or one of its descendants. To learn more read our guide on creating new visualizations. ### Examples **Manually configuring a ViewDataTable** a controller method that displays a single report public function myReport() { $view = \Piwik\ViewDataTable\Factory::build('table', 'MyPlugin.myReport'); $view->config->show_limit_control = true; $view->config->translations['myFancyMetric'] = "My Fancy Metric"; ... return $view->render(); } **Using {@link Piwik\Plugin\Controller::renderReport}** First, a controller method that displays a single report: public function myReport() { return $this->renderReport(__FUNCTION__);` } Then the event handler for the {@hook ViewDataTable.configure} event: public function configureViewDataTable(ViewDataTable $view) { switch ($view->requestConfig->apiMethodToRequestDataTable) { case 'MyPlugin.myReport': $view->config->show_limit_control = true; $view->config->translations['myFancyMetric'] = "My Fancy Metric"; ... break; } } **Using custom configuration objects in a new visualization** class MyVisualizationConfig extends Piwik\ViewDataTable\Config { public $my_new_property = true; } class MyVisualizationRequestConfig extends Piwik\ViewDataTable\RequestConfig { public $my_new_property = false; } class MyVisualization extends Piwik\Plugin\ViewDataTable { public static function getDefaultConfig() { return new MyVisualizationConfig(); } public static function getDefaultRequestConfig() { return new MyVisualizationRequestConfig(); } }

Public Methods

Method Description

Method Details

__construct() public method

Posts the {@hook ViewDataTable.configure} event which plugins can use to configure the way reports are displayed.
public __construct ( $controllerAction, $apiMethodToRequestDataTable, $overrideParams = [] )

canDisplayViewDataTable() public static method

New visualization classes should override this method if they can only visualize certain types of data. The evolution graph visualization, for example, can only visualize sets of DataTables. If the API method used results in a single DataTable, the evolution graph footer icon should not be displayed.
public static canDisplayViewDataTable ( ViewDataTable $view ) : boolean
$view ViewDataTable Contains the API request being checked.
return boolean

checkStandardDataTable() protected method

Checks that the API returned a normal DataTable (as opposed to DataTable\Map)
protected checkStandardDataTable ( ) : void
return void

getDataTable() public method

Returns the DataTable loaded from the API.
public getDataTable ( ) : DataTable
return Piwik\DataTable

getDefaultConfig() public static method

Visualizations that define their own display properties should override this method and return an instance of their new {@link Piwik\ViewDataTable\Config} descendant. See the last example {@link ViewDataTable here} for more information.
public static getDefaultConfig ( ) : Config
return Piwik\ViewDataTable\Config

getDefaultDataTableCssClass() protected method

getDefaultRequestConfig() public static method

Visualizations that define their own request properties should override this method and return an instance of their new {@link Piwik\ViewDataTable\RequestConfig} descendant. See the last example {@link ViewDataTable here} for more information.
public static getDefaultRequestConfig ( ) : RequestConfig
return Piwik\ViewDataTable\RequestConfig

getNonOverridableParams() public method

public getNonOverridableParams ( $overrideParams ) : array
$overrideParams
return array

getOverridableProperties() protected method

Returns the list of view properties that can be overriden by query parameters.
protected getOverridableProperties ( ) : array
return array

getPropertyFromQueryParam() protected method

protected getPropertyFromQueryParam ( $name, $defaultValue )

getViewDataTableId() public static method

Derived classes should not override this method. They should instead declare a const ID field with the viewDataTable ID.
public static getViewDataTableId ( ) : string
return string

isRequestingSingleDataTable() public method

Returns true if this instance will request a single DataTable, false if requesting more than one.

isViewDataTableId() public method

Can be used to test whether a ViewDataTable object is an instance of a certain visualization or not, without having to know where that visualization is.
public isViewDataTableId ( string $viewDataTableId ) : boolean
$viewDataTableId string The viewDataTable ID to check for, eg, `'table'`.
return boolean

loadDataTableFromAPI() protected method

protected loadDataTableFromAPI ( )

render() public method

Requests all needed data and renders the view.
public render ( ) : string
return string The result of rendering.

setDataTable() public method

It won't be loaded from the API in this case.
public setDataTable ( DataTable $dataTable ) : void
$dataTable Piwik\DataTable The DataTable to use.
return void

throwWhenSettingNonOverridableParameter() public method

Display a meaningful error message when any invalid parameter is being set.
public throwWhenSettingNonOverridableParameter ( $overrideParams )
