Interfaces

ActionInterface
Interface for all action classes.

Properties

$subaction

public string $subaction

The requested sub-action. This should be set by the constructor.

$subactions

public static array<string|int, mixed> $subactions = ['jumpto' => 'jumpTo', 'messageicons' => 'messageIcons', 'previews' => 'previews']

Available sub-actions.

$obj

protected static static $obj

An instance of this class. This is used by the load() method to prevent multiple instantiations.

Methods

buildRoute()

Builds a routing path based on URL query parameters.

public static buildRoute(array<string|int, mixed> $params) : array<string|int, mixed>
Parameters
$params : array<string|int, mixed>

URL query parameters.

Return values
array<string|int, mixed> —

Contains two elements: ['route' => [], 'params' => []]. The 'route' element contains the routing path. The 'params' element contains any $params that weren't incorporated into the route.

call()

Convenience method to load() and execute() an instance of this class.

public static call() : void

canBeLogged()

Determines whether this action can be logged in the online log.

public canBeLogged() : bool
Return values
bool

canShowDebuggingInfo()

Determines whether debugging info should be shown.

public canShowDebuggingInfo() : bool
Return values
bool

canShowInMaintenanceMode()

Determines whether this action allows access in maintenance mode.

public canShowInMaintenanceMode() : bool
Return values
bool —

True if access is allowed, false otherwise.

execute()

The main handler and designator for AJAX stuff - jumpto, message icons and previews

public execute() : void

isAgreementAction()

Determines whether this action can be accessed without accepting the registration agreement and privacy policy.

public isAgreementAction() : bool
Return values
bool

isRestrictedGuestAccessAllowed()

Determines whether this action allows access if guest access is restricted.

public isRestrictedGuestAccessAllowed() : bool
Return values
bool —

True if access is allowed, false otherwise.

isSimpleAction()

Determines whether this is a simple action.

public isSimpleAction() : bool

Simple actions don't require the index template at all.

Return values
bool

jumpTo()

Get a list of boards and categories used for the jumpto dropdown.

public jumpTo() : void

load()

Static wrapper for constructor.

public static load() : static
Return values
static —

An instance of this class.

messageIcons()

Gets a list of available message icons and sends the info to the template for display

public messageIcons() : void

newsletterpreview()

Handles previewing newsletters

public newsletterpreview() : void

newspreview()

Handles previewing news items

public newspreview() : void

parseRoute()

Parses a route to get URL query parameters.

public static parseRoute(array<string|int, mixed> $route[, array<string|int, mixed> $params = [] ]) : array<string|int, mixed>
Parameters
$route : array<string|int, mixed>

Array of routing path components.

$params : array<string|int, mixed> = []

Any existing URL query parameters.

Return values
array<string|int, mixed> —

URL query parameters

previews()

Handles retrieving previews of news items, newsletters, signatures and warnings.

public previews() : void|bool

Calls the appropriate function based on $_POST['item']

Return values
void|bool —

Returns false if $_POST['item'] isn't set or isn't valid

sig_preview()

Handles previewing signatures

public sig_preview() : void

subActionProvider()

Called by Subs-Compat.php BackwardCompatibility wrapper functions to provide subaction execution for existing mods

public static subActionProvider([null|string $sa = null ][, bool $return_config = false ][, string|null $activity = null ]) : null|array<string|int, mixed>
Parameters
$sa : null|string = null
$return_config : bool = false
$activity : string|null = null
Return values
null|array<string|int, mixed>

warning_preview()

Handles previewing user warnings

public warning_preview() : void

__construct()

Constructor. Protected to force instantiation via self::load().

protected __construct() : mixed

buildActionRoute()

Builds a routing path for an action based on URL query parameters.

protected static buildActionRoute(array<string|int, mixed> &$params) : array<string|int, mixed>

The 'action', 'area', and 'sa' parameters will be mapped to route path components in that order. The 'action' parameter is required, whereas 'area' and 'sa' are optional and will be silently skipped if not set.

The parameters are passed by reference and parameters are removed from the array when recognized. This lets wrapper methods continue parsing the remainder of the parameters without worrying about duplicate elements.

Parameters
$params : array<string|int, mixed>

URL query parameters.

Return values
array<string|int, mixed> —

The route path elements.

parseActionRoute()

Parses a route for an action to get URL query parameters.

protected static parseActionRoute(array<string|int, mixed> &$route) : array<string|int, mixed>

The first element of the route path is mapped to the 'action' parameter.

For the 'admin', 'moderate', and 'profile' actions, the second element of the route is mapped to the 'area' parameter and the third element is mapped to the 'sa' parameter.

For all other actions, the second element of the route path is mapped to the 'sa' parameter.

The route passed by reference and route path elements are removed from the route when recognized. This lets wrapper methods continue parsing the remainder of the route without worrying about duplicate elements.

Parameters
$route : array<string|int, mixed>

Array of routing path components.

Return values
array<string|int, mixed> —

URL query parameters
