Extended Classes

We extended some classes from FuelPHP. The additions we made are listed in this page.

Core Classes

Arr

Added the static recursive_filter($array, $callback) method.

Autoloader

• Filename suffixes are available for model, controller, and view, as follow: model.model.php, controller.ctrl.php, view.view.php. For instance, if you have a Controller_Admin_Page controller, its filename can either be classes/controller/admin/page.php or classes/controller/admin/page.ctrl.php.
• It is possible to add new class aliases and access existing aliases using the addClassAlias and getClassAliases functions.
• The generateSuffixedNamespace function allow to generate a customized namespace for files such as tasks or migrations

Cache_Storage_File

__construct() will try to create the specified cache directory when it doesn’t exists.

Config

Added events to alter the loaded configuration.

Date

• Added the static method compare($date1, $date2)
• Added the instance method modify($modify)

Email_Driver

send(): we added two events email.before_send and email.after_send

Event_Instance

Added two methods register_function() and trigger_function() to deal with by-reference arguments.

Fieldset and Fieldset_Field

• Added the static method Fieldset::build_from_config()
• Added the public method $fieldset->getInstance(): it gets the current model instance processed by the fieldset
• Integration of renderers in the methods of these two classes

File

Added the method relativeSymlink()

Finder

• Added the Novius OS framework path in the searched paths
• Allow for filename suffixes for config, views and lang files (same rule as the Autoloader, see above)

Added the static method shrink($max_width, $max_height = null, $keepar = true, $pad = false)

Log

• Added the static method Log::deprecated($message, $since)
• Added the static method Log::exception($e, $prefix)
