Schema

An implementation of the factory method, allows you to create an instance of a class

This method will defer class substitution to the Injector API, which can be customised via the Config API to declare substitution classes.

This can be called in one of two ways - either calling via the class directly, or calling on Object and passing the class name as the first parameter. The following are equivalent: $list = DataList::create('SiteTree'); $list = SiteTree::get();

Creates a class instance by the "singleton" design pattern.

It will always return the same instance for this class, which can be used for performance reasons and as a simple way to access instance methods which don't rely on instance data (e.g. the custom SilverStripe static handling).

Get a configuration accessor for this class. Short hand for Config::inst()->get($this->class, .....).

Get inherited config value

Gets the uninherited value for the given config option

Update the config value for a given property

Converts a configuration array to instance state.

This is only needed for deeper customisations, since the configuration is auto-discovered and applied through the {@link SchemaBuilder::boot()} step.

Creates a readonly object that can be used by a storage service.

Processes all of the types, fields, models, etc to end up with a coherent, schema that can be validated and stored.

Given a type name, try to resolve it to any model-implementing component

Gets all the models that were generated from a given ancestor, e.g. DataObject

Some types must be eagerly loaded into the schema if they cannot be discovered through introspection.

This may include types that do not appear in any queries.
