SilverStripe\View\TemplateIteratorProvider

interface TemplateIteratorProvider (View source)

Interface that is implemented by any classes that want to expose a method that can be called in any scope in a template that returns values dependent on the state of the iterator of the current scope.

SSViewer_BasicIteratorSupport is an example of this. See also @TemplateGlobalProvider

Methods

public static

array

get_template_iterator_variables()

Called by SSViewer to get a list of iterator variables to expose to the template, the instance method to call on an instance of this class to get the value for those variables, and the class to use for casting the returned value for use in a template

public

iteratorProperties(int $pos, int $totalItems)

Set the current iterator properties - where we are on the iterator.

Details

at line 34
`static array get_template_iterator_variables()`

If the method to call is not included for a particular template variable, a method named the same as the template variable will be called

If the casting class is not specified for a particular template variable, ViewableData::$default_cast is used

The first letter of the template variable is case-insensitive. However the method name is always case sensitive.

Return Value

array

Returns an array of items. Each key => value pair is one of three forms:

template name (no key)
template name => method name
template name => array(), where the array can contain these key => value pairs
- "method" => method name
- "casting" => casting class to use (i.e., Varchar, HTMLFragment, etc)

at line 46
`iteratorProperties(int $pos, int $totalItems)`

Set the current iterator properties - where we are on the iterator.

This is called by SSViewer prior to calling any of the variables exposed to the template (that is, as returned from a call to get_template_iterator_variables)

Parameters

int	$pos	position in iterator
int	$totalItems	total number of items
