Variable Summary

string $cacheDir

array $classPath

mixed $corePluginDir

array $paths

Method Summary

Dwoo_Loader __construct ( $cacheDir)

void addDirectory (string $pluginDirectory)

void loadPlugin (string $class, [bool $forceRehash = true])

void rebuildClassPathCache (string $path, string $cacheFile)

Variables

string $cacheDir (line 46)

path where class paths cache files are written

access: protected

array $classPath = array() (line 39)

stores the plugins names/paths relationships don't edit this on your own, use addDirectory

see: Dwoo_Loader::addDirectory()
access: protected

mixed $corePluginDir (line 48)

access: protected

array $paths = array() (line 30)

stores the plugin directories

see: Dwoo_Loader::addDirectory()
access: protected

Methods

Constructor __construct (line 50)

access: public

Dwoo_Loader __construct ( $cacheDir)

$cacheDir

addDirectory (line 136)

adds a plugin directory, the plugins found in the new plugin directory

will take precedence over the other directories (including the default dwoo plugin directory), you can use this for example to override plugins in a specific directory for a specific application while keeping all your usual plugins in the same place for all applications.

TOCOM don't forget that php functions overrides are not rehashed so you need to clear the classpath caches by hand when adding those

access: public

void addDirectory (string $pluginDirectory)

string $pluginDirectory: the plugin path to scan

loadPlugin (line 104)

loads a plugin file

access: public

void loadPlugin (string $class, [bool $forceRehash = true])

string $class: the plugin name, without the Dwoo_Plugin_ prefix
bool $forceRehash: if true, the class path caches will be rebuilt if the plugin is not found, in case it has just been added, defaults to true

Implementation of:

Dwoo_ILoader::loadPlugin(): loads a plugin file

rebuildClassPathCache (line 70)

rebuilds class paths, scans the given directory recursively and saves all paths in the given file

access: protected

void rebuildClassPathCache (string $path, string $cacheFile)

string $path: the plugin path to scan
string $cacheFile: the file where to store the plugin paths cache, it will be overwritten
