Member Function Documentation

ApiModuleManager::addModule ( name,
group,
class,
factory = null 
)

Add or overwrite a module in this ApiMain instance.

Intended for use by extending classes who wish to add their own modules to their lexicon or override the behavior of inherent ones.

Parameters:
string$nameThe identifier for this module.
string$groupName of the module group
string$classThe class where this module is implemented.
callable | null$factoryCallback for instantiating the module.
Exceptions:
InvalidArgumentException

Definition at line 122 of file ApiModuleManager.php.

ApiModuleManager::addModules ( array modules,
group 
)

Add a list of modules to the manager.

Each module is described by a module spec.

Each module spec is an associative array containing at least the 'class' key for the module's class, and optionally a 'factory' key for the factory function to use for the module.

That factory function will be called with two parameters, the parent module (an instance of ApiBase, usually ApiMain) and the name the module was registered under. The return value must be an instance of the class given in the 'class' field.

For backward compatibility, the module spec may also be a simple string containing the module's class name. In that case, the class' constructor will be called with the parent module and module name as parameters, as described above.

Examples for defining module specs:

  $modules['foo'] = 'ApiFoo';
  $modules['bar'] = array(
      'class' => 'ApiBar',
      'factory' => function( $main, $name ) { ... }
  );
  $modules['xyzzy'] = array(
      'class' => 'ApiXyzzy',
      'factory' => array( 'XyzzyFactory', 'newApiModule' )
  );
Parameters:
array$modulesA map of ModuleName => ModuleSpec; The ModuleSpec is either a string containing the module's class name, or an associative array (see above for details).
string$groupWhich group modules belong to (action,format,...)

Definition at line 95 of file ApiModuleManager.php.

Returns the class name of the given module.

Parameters:
string$moduleModule name
Returns:
string|bool class name or false if the module does not exist
Since:

Definition at line 247 of file ApiModuleManager.php.

Get a list of groups this manager contains.

Returns:
array

ApiModuleManager::getModule ( moduleName,
group = null,
ignoreCache = false 
)

Get module instance by name, or instantiate it if it does not exist.

Parameters:
string$moduleNameModule name
string$groupOptionally validate that the module is in a specific group
bool$ignoreCacheIf true, force-creates a new instance and does not cache it
Returns:
ApiBase|null The new module instance, or null if failed

Definition at line 152 of file ApiModuleManager.php.

Returns the group name for the given module.

Parameters:
string$moduleName
Returns:
string Group name or null if missing

Definition at line 274 of file ApiModuleManager.php.

ApiModuleManager::getNames ( group = null)

Get an array of modules in a specific group or all if no group is set.

Parameters:
string$groupOptional group filter
Returns:
array List of module names

Definition at line 210 of file ApiModuleManager.php.

Create an array of (moduleName => moduleClass) for a specific group or for all.

Parameters:
string$groupName of the group to get or null for all
Returns:
array Name=>class map

Definition at line 229 of file ApiModuleManager.php.

ApiModuleManager::instantiateModule ( name,
class,
factory = null 
) [private]

Instantiate the module using the given class or factory function.

Parameters:
string$nameThe identifier for this module.
string$classThe class where this module is implemented.

Exceptions:
MWException
Returns:
ApiBase

Definition at line 189 of file ApiModuleManager.php.

ApiModuleManager::isDefined ( moduleName,
group = null 
)

Returns true if the specific module is defined at all or in a specific group.

Parameters:
string$moduleNameModule name
string$groupGroup name to check against, or null to check all groups,
Returns:
bool True if defined
