FPLTemplate

Summary: Alternative FPLTemplate() function with hooks for developers for more flexible pagelist output

Version: 2009-03-15

Prerequisites: PmWiki 2.2.0

Status: experimental

Maintainer:

Description

From PmWiki 2.2.5 this function is part of of the core pagelist.php script, with most of its features integrated. Consider this recipe obsolete.

A revised FPLTemplate function as a proof-of-concept idea for core development of the FPLTemplate function in pagelist.php

See and check out code: fpltemplate.php Δ

For testing install fpltemplate.php as standard cookbook recipe. Doing so will make pagelist to use the included function instead of the original FPLTemplate function.

Features:

All features (see PageListTemplates) offered by original FPLTemplate() function are retained
Original function broken into 5 (sub-)functions, called in a chain, offering possibilities of adding custom functions into the chain.
Additional pagelist supplied by custom function can be merged with list returned by MakePageList() function
Additional {$$PageListCount} template variable, giving total count of pagelist before any slicing into chunks.
Additional optional start= parameter for (:pagelist:)
Additional optional (:template none:) as template section for the case of "no matches"

Notes for Developers

Comments of changes to original function are provided in the script.

Default array of functions called in turn:

SDV($FPLTemplateFunctions, array(
   'FPLTemplateLoad',      //load pagelist template
   'FPLTemplateDefaults',  //add any defaults from template to options
   'FPLTemplatePageList',  //make pagelist, calls MakePageList(), merges with previous list 
   'FPLTemplateSliceList', //slice pagelist according to start= and count= parameters
   'FPLTemplateFormat'));  //construct and return HTML formatted output

To add a custom function into the chain define the array with the custom function added at the right place.
