Gets the list of attached objects, or, whether the given object is attached
Parameters
- string $name optional null
Optional. The name of the behavior to check the status of. If omitted, returns an array of currently-attached behaviors
Returns
If $name is specified, returns the boolean status of the corresponding behavior. Otherwise, returns an array of all attached behaviors.
disable() public ¶
disable( string|array $name )
Disables callbacks on a object or array of objects. Public object methods are still callable as normal.
Parameters
- string|array $name
- CamelCased name of the objects(s) to disable (string or array)
enable() public ¶
enable( string|array $name , boolean $prioritize = true )
Enables callbacks on an object or array of objects
Parameters
- string|array $name
- CamelCased name of the object(s) to enable (string or array)
- boolean $prioritize optional true
- enabled list after enabling object(s)
enabled() public ¶
enabled( string $name = null )
Gets the list of currently-enabled objects, or, the current status of a single objects
Parameters
- string $name optional null
Optional. The name of the object to check the status of. If omitted, returns an array of currently-enabled object
Returns
If $name is specified, returns the boolean status of the corresponding object. Otherwise, returns an array of all enabled objects.
normalizeObjectArray() public static ¶
normalizeObjectArray( array $objects )
Normalizes an object array, creates an array that makes lazy loading easier
Parameters
- array $objects
- Array of child objects to normalize.
Returns
Array of normalized objects.
prioritize() public ¶
prioritize( )
Prioritize list of enabled object
Returns
Prioritized list of object
set() public ¶
set( string $name = null , Object $object = null )
Adds or overwrites an instantiated object to the collection
Parameters
- string $name optional null
- Name of the object
-
Object$object optional null - The object to use
Returns
Loaded objects
setPriority() public ¶
setPriority( string|array $name , integer|null $priority = null )
Set priority for an object or array of objects
Parameters
- string|array $name
CamelCased name of the object(s) to enable (string or array) If string the second param $priority is used else it should be an associative array with keys as object names and values as priorities to set.
- integer|null $priority optional null
- priority to set or null for default
trigger() public ¶
trigger( string $callback , array $params = array() , array $options = array() )
Trigger a callback method on every object in the collection. Used to trigger methods on objects in the collection. Will fire the methods in the order they were attached.
Options
breakOnSet to the value or values you want the callback propagation to stop on. Can either be a scalar value, or an array of values to break on. Defaults tofalse.breakSet to true to enabled breaking. When a trigger is broken, the last returned value will be returned. If used in combination withcollectReturnthe collected results will be returned. Defaults tofalse.collectReturnSet to true to collect the return of each object into an array. This array of return values will be returned from the trigger() call. Defaults tofalse.modParamsAllows each object the callback gets called on to modify the parameters to the next object. Setting modParams to an integer value will allow you to modify the parameter with that index. Any non-null value will modify the parameter index indicated. Defaults to false.
Parameters
- string $callback
$callback|CakeEvent Method to fire on all the objects. Its assumed all the objects implement the method you are calling. If an instance of CakeEvent is provided, then then Event name will parsed to get the callback name. This is done by getting the last word after any dot in the event name (eg.
Model.afterSaveevent will trigger theafterSavecallback)- array $params optional array()
- Array of parameters for the triggered callback.
- array $options optional array()
- Array of options.
Returns
Either the last result or all results if collectReturn is on.
