PHP Class eZ\Publish\Core\FieldType\FieldType

All other field types extend FieldType providing the specific functionality desired in each case. The capabilities supported by each individual field type is decided by which interfaces the field type implements support for. These individual capabilities can also be checked via the supports*() methods. Field types are the base building blocks of Content Types, and serve as data containers for Content objects. Therefore, while field types can be used independently, they are designed to be used as a part of a Content object. Field types are primed and pre-configured with the Field Definitions found in Content Types.

Method Details

acceptValue() final public method

This method first inspects $inputValue and convert it into a dedicated value object. After that, the value is checked for structural validity. Note that this does not include validation after the rules from validators, but only plausibility checks for the general data format. Note that this method must also cope with the empty value for the field type as e.g. returned by {@link getEmptyValue()}.

final public acceptValue ( mixed $inputValue ) : Value
$inputValue	mixed
return	Value	The potentially converted and structurally plausible value.

applyDefaultSettings() public method

This is a base implementation, expecting best practice field settings format used by field types in standard eZ publish installation. Overwrite in derived types if needed.

public applyDefaultSettings ( mixed &$fieldSettings )
$fieldSettings	mixed

applyDefaultValidatorConfiguration() public method

This is a base implementation, expecting best practice validator configuration format used by field types in standard eZ publish installation. Overwrite in derived types if needed.

public applyDefaultValidatorConfiguration ( mixed &$validatorConfiguration )
$validatorConfiguration	mixed

checkValueStructure() abstract protected method

Note that this does not include validation after the rules from validators, but only plausibility checks for the general data format. This is an operation method for {@see \acceptValue()}. Example implementation:


 protected function checkValueStructure( Value $value )
 {
     if ( !is_array( $value->cookies ) )
     {
         throw new InvalidArgumentException( "An array of assorted cookies was expected." );
     }
 }

abstract protected checkValueStructure ( Value $value )
$value	Value

checkValueType() protected static method

This is an operation method for {@see \acceptValue()}. Default implementation expects the value class to reside in the same namespace as its FieldType class and is named "Value". Example implementation:


 static protected function checkValueType( $value )
 {
     if ( !$inputValue instanceof \eZ\Publish\Core\FieldType\CookieJar\Value ) )
     {
         throw new InvalidArgumentException( "Given value type is not supported." );
     }
 }

protected static checkValueType ( mixed $value )
$value	mixed	A value returned by {@see \createValueFromInput()}.

createValueFromInput() abstract protected method

If given $inputValue could not be converted or is already an instance of dedicate value object, the method should simply return it. This is an operation method for {@see \acceptValue()}. Example implementation:


 protected function createValueFromInput( $inputValue )
 {
     if ( is_array( $inputValue ) )
     {
         $inputValue = \eZ\Publish\Core\FieldType\CookieJar\Value( $inputValue );
     }

     return $inputValue;
 }

abstract protected createValueFromInput ( mixed $inputValue ) : mixed
$inputValue	mixed
return	mixed	The potentially converted input value.

fieldSettingsFromHash() public method

This is the reverse operation of {@link fieldSettingsToHash()}. This is the default implementation, which just returns the given $fieldSettingsHash, assuming the supported field settings are already in a hash format. Overwrite this in your specific implementation, if necessary.

public fieldSettingsFromHash ( array \| hash \| scalar \| null $fieldSettingsHash ) : mixed
$fieldSettingsHash	array \| hash \| scalar \| null
return	mixed

fieldSettingsToHash() public method

This is the default implementation, which just returns the given $fieldSettings, assuming they are already in a hash format. Overwrite this in your specific implementation, if necessary.

public fieldSettingsToHash ( mixed $fieldSettings ) : array \| hash \| scalar \| null
$fieldSettings	mixed
return	array \| hash \| scalar \| null

fromPersistenceValue() public method

Converts a persistence $fieldValue to a Value.

public fromPersistenceValue ( eZ\Publish\SPI\Persistence\Content\FieldValue $fieldValue ) : Value
$fieldValue	eZ\Publish\SPI\Persistence\Content\FieldValue
return	Value

getRelations() public method

Not intended for \eZ\Publish\API\Repository\Values\Content\Relation::COMMON type relations, there is an API for handling those.

public getRelations ( eZ\Publish\SPI\FieldType\Value $fieldValue ) : array
$fieldValue	eZ\Publish\SPI\FieldType\Value
return	array	Hash with relation type as key and array of destination content ids as value. Example: `array( \eZ\Publish\API\Repository\Values\Content\Relation::LINK => array( "contentIds" => array( 12, 13, 14 ), "locationIds" => array( 24 ) ), \eZ\Publish\API\Repository\Values\Content\Relation::EMBED => array( "contentIds" => array( 12 ), "locationIds" => array( 24, 45 ) ), \eZ\Publish\API\Repository\Values\Content\Relation::FIELD => array( 12 ) )`

getSettingsSchema() public method

This implementation returns an array. where the key is the setting name, and the value is the default value for given setting and set to null if no particular default should be set.

public getSettingsSchema ( ) : mixed
return	mixed

getSortInfo() protected method

Return value is mixed. It should be something which is sensible for sorting. It is up to the persistence implementation to handle those values. Common string and integer values are safe. For the legacy storage it is up to the field converters to set this value in either sort_key_string or sort_key_int.

protected getSortInfo ( Value $value ) : mixed
$value	Value
return	mixed

getValidatorConfigurationSchema() public method

Returns a schema for the validator configuration expected by the FieldType.

See also: FieldTypeInterface::getValidatorConfigurationSchema() This implementation returns a three dimensional map containing for each validator configuration referenced by identifier a map of supported parameters which are defined by a type and a default value (see example).


 array(
     'stringLength' => array(
         'minStringLength' => array(
             'type'    => 'int',
             'default' => 0,
         ),
         'maxStringLength' => array(
             'type'    => 'int'

         )
     ),
 );

public getValidatorConfigurationSchema ( ) : mixed
return	mixed

isEmptyValue() public method

Default implementation, which performs a "==" check with the value returned by {@link getEmptyValue()}. Overwrite in the specific field type, if necessary.

public isEmptyValue ( eZ\Publish\SPI\FieldType\Value $value ) : boolean
$value	eZ\Publish\SPI\FieldType\Value
return	boolean

isSearchable() public method

public validateFieldSettings ( mixed $fieldSettings ) : eZ\Publish\SPI\FieldType\ValidationError[]
$fieldSettings	mixed
return	eZ\Publish\SPI\FieldType\ValidationError[]

validateValidatorConfiguration() public method

This method expects that given $validatorConfiguration is complete, for this purpose method {@link self::applyDefaultValidatorConfiguration()} is provided. This is a base implementation, returning a validation error for each specified validator, since by default no validators are supported. Overwrite in derived types, if validation is supported.

public validateValidatorConfiguration ( mixed $validatorConfiguration ) : eZ\Publish\SPI\FieldType\ValidationError[]
$validatorConfiguration	mixed
return	eZ\Publish\SPI\FieldType\ValidationError[]

$validatorConfigurationHash	array \| hash \| scalar \| null
return	mixed
