FileLink
class FileLink extends DataObject
Represents a link between a dataobject parent and a file shortcode in a HTML content area
Traits
Constants
| CHANGE_NONE |
Represents a field that hasn't changed (before === after, thus before == after) |
| CHANGE_STRICT |
Represents a field that has changed type, although not the loosely defined value. (before !== after && before == after) E.g. change 1 to true or "true" to true, but not true to 0. Value changes are by nature also considered strict changes. |
| CHANGE_VALUE |
Represents a field that has changed the loosely defined value (before != after, thus, before !== after)) E.g. change false to true, but not false to 0 |

Get an extension instance attached to this object by name.
Returns TRUE if this object instance has a specific extension applied in {@link $extension_instances}. Extension instances are initialized at constructor time, meaning if you use {@link add_extension()} afterwards, the added extension will just be added to new instances of the extended class.

__call(string $method, array $arguments)
Attempts to locate and call a method dynamically added to a class at runtime if a default cannot be located
You can add extra methods to a class using {@link Extensions}, {@link Object::createMethod()} or {@link Object::addWrapperMethod()}
in CustomMethods at line 144
bool
hasMethod(string $method)
Return TRUE if a method exists on this object
This should be used rather than PHP's inbuild method_exists() as it takes into account methods added via extensions

allMethodNames(bool $custom = false)
Return the names of all the methods available on this object
in Extensible at line 163
static bool
add_extension(string $classOrExtension, string $extension = null)
Add an extension to a specific class.
The preferred method for adding extensions is through YAML config, since it avoids autoloading the class, and is easier to override in more specific configurations.
As an alternative, extensions can be added to a specific class directly in the {@link Object::$extensions} array. See {@link SiteTree::$extensions} for examples. Keep in mind that the extension will only be applied to new instances, not existing ones (including all instances created through {@link singleton()}).
in Extensible at line 224
static
remove_extension(string $extension)
Remove an extension from a class.
Note: This will not remove extensions from parent classes, and must be called directly on the class assigned the extension.
Keep in mind that this won't revert any datamodel additions of the extension at runtime, unless its used before the schema building kicks in (in your _config.php). Doesn't remove the extension from any {@link Object} instances which are already created, but will have an effect on new extensions. Clears any previously created singletons through {@link singleton()} to avoid side-effects from stale extension information.

invokeWithExtensions(string $method, mixed $arguments)
Calls a method if available on both this object and all applied {@link Extensions}, and then attempts to merge all results into an array
in Extensible at line 424
array
extend(string $method, mixed $arguments)
Run the given function on all of this object's extensions. Note that this method originally returned void, so if you wanted to return results, you're hosed
Currently returns an array, with an index resulting every time the function is called. Only adds returns if they're not NULL, to avoid bogus results from methods just defined on the parent extension. This is important for permission-checks through extend, as they use min() to determine if any of the returns is FALSE. As min() doesn't do type checking, an included NULL return would fail the permission checks.
The extension methods are defined during {@link __construct()} in {@link defineMethods()}.

getExtensionInstance(string $extension)
Get an extension instance attached to this object by name.

bool
hasExtension(string $extension)
Returns TRUE if this object instance has a specific extension applied in {@link $extension_instances}. Extension instances are initialized at constructor time, meaning if you use {@link add_extension()} afterwards, the added extension will just be added to new instances of the extended class. Use the static method {@link has_extension()} to check if a class (not an instance) has a specific extension.
Caution: Don't use singleton(
in Extensible at line 508
Extension[]
getExtensionInstances()
Get all extension instances for this specific object instance.
See {@link get_extensions()} to get all applied extension classes for this class (not the instance).
This method also provides lazy-population of the extension_instances property.
in Injectable at line 26
static Injectable
create(array $args)
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();
in Injectable at line 43
static Injectable
singleton(string $class = null)
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).

string
getClassName()
Gets name of this class
in DataObject at line 664
$this
setClassName(string $className)
Set the ClassName attribute. {@link $class} is also updated.
Warning: This will produce an inconsistent record, as the object instance will not automatically switch to the new subclass. Please use {@link newClassInstance()} for this purpose, or destroy and reinstanciate the record.
in DataObject at line 692
DataObject
newClassInstance(string $newClassName)
Create a new instance of a different class from this object's record.
This is useful when dynamically changing the type of an instance. Specifically, it ensures that the instance of the class is a match for the className of the record. Don't set the {@link DataObject->class} or {@link DataObject->ClassName} property manually before calling this method, as it will confuse change detection.
If the new class is different to the original class, defaults are populated again because this will only occur automatically on instantiation of a DataObject if there is no record, or the record has no ID. In this case, we do have an ID but we still need to repopulate the defaults.

getTitle()
Standard implementation of a title/label for a specific record. Tries to find properties 'Title' or 'Name', and falls back to the 'ID'. Useful to provide user-friendly identification of a record, e.g. in errormessages or UI-selections.
Overload this method to have a more specialized implementation,
e.g. for an Address record this could be:
function getTitle() {
return "{$this->StreetNumber} {$this->StreetName} {$this->City}";
}
in DataObject at line 911
DataObject
data()
Returns the associated database record - in this case, the object itself.
This is included so that you can call $dataOrController->data() and get a DataObject all the time.
in DataObject at line 921
array
toMap()
Convert this object to a map.
in DataObject at line 935
array
getQueriedDatabaseFields()
Return all currently fetched database fields.
This function is similar to toMap() but doesn't trigger the lazy-loading of all unfetched fields. Obviously, this makes it a lot faster.
in DataObject at line 955
DataObject
update(array $data)
Update a number of fields on this object, given a map of the desired changes.
The field names can be simple names, or you can use a dot syntax to access $has_one relations. For example, array("Author.FirstName" => "Jim") will set $this->Author()->FirstName to "Jim".
Doesn't write the main object, but if you use the dot syntax, it will write() the related objects that it alters.
When using this method with user supplied data, it's very important to whitelist the allowed keys.
in DataObject at line 1016
DataObject
castedUpdate(array $data)
Pass changes as a map, and try to get automatic casting for these fields.
Doesn't write to the database. To write the data, use the write() method.
in DataObject at line 1045
Boolean
merge(DataObject $rightObj, string $priority = 'right', bool $includeRelations = true, bool $overwriteWithEmpty = false)
Merges data and relations from another object of same class, without conflict resolution. Allows to specify which dataset takes priority in case its not empty.
has_one-relations are just transferred with priority 'right'. has_many and many_many-relations are added regardless of priority.
Caution: has_many/many_many relations are moved rather than duplicated, meaning they are not connected to the merged object any longer. Caution: Just saves updated has_many/many_many relations to the database, doesn't write the updated object itself (just writes the object-properties). Caution: Does not delete the merged object. Caution: Does now overwrite Created date on the original object.
in DataObject at line 1126
$this
forceChange()
Forces the record to think that all its data has changed.
Doesn't write to the database. Force-change preseved until next write. Existing CHANGE_VALUE or CHANGE_STRICT values are preserved.
in DataObject at line 1158
ValidationResult
validate()
Validate the current object.
By default, there is no validation - objects are always valid! However, you can overload this method in your DataObject sub-classes to specify custom validation, or use the hook through DataExtension.
Invalid objects won't be able to be written - a warning will be thrown and no write will occur. onBeforeWrite() and onAfterWrite() won't get called either.
It is expected that you call validate() in your own application to test that an object is valid before attempting a write, and respond appropriately if it isn't.

ArrayList
findCascadeDeletes(bool $recursive = true, ArrayList $list = null)
Find all objects that will be cascade deleted if this object is deleted
Notes: - If this object is versioned, objects will only be searched in the same stage as the given record. - This will only be useful prior to deletion, as post-deletion this record will no longer exist.
in DataObject at line 1258

Writes all changes to this object to the database.
- It will insert a record whenever ID isn't set, otherwise update.
- All relevant tables will be updated.
- $this->onBeforeWrite() gets called beforehand.
- Extensions such as Versioned will ammend the database-write to ensure that a version is saved.

getComponent(string $componentName)
Return a unary component object from a one to one relationship, as a DataObject.
If no component is available, an 'empty component' will be returned for non-polymorphic relations, or for polymorphic relations with a class set.
in DataObject at line 1830

in DataObject at line 1989
DataList|DataObject
inferReciprocalComponent(string $remoteClass, string $remoteRelation)
Given a relation declared on a remote class, generate a substitute component for the opposite side of the relation.
Notes on behaviour: - This can still be used on components that are defined on both sides, but do not need to be. - All has_ones on remote class will be treated as local has_many, even if they are belongs_to - Polymorphic relationships do not have two natural endpoints (only on one side) and thus attempting to infer them will return nothing. - Cannot be used on unsaved objects.
in DataObject at line 2089
ManyManyList|UnsavedRelationList
getManyManyComponents(string $componentName, int|array $id = null)
Returns a many-to-many component, as a ManyManyList.
in DataObject at line 2158
string|array
hasOne()
Return the class of a one-to-one component. If $component is null, return all of the one-to-one components and their classes. If the selected has_one is a polymorphic field then 'DataObject' will be returned for the type.
in DataObject at line 2171
string|array
belongsTo(bool $classOnly = true)
Returns the class of a remote belongs_to relationship. If no component is specified a map of all components and their class name will be returned.
in DataObject at line 2189
string|array|false
hasMany(bool $classOnly = true)
Gets the class of a one-to-many relationship. If no $component is specified then an array of all the one-to-many relationships and their classes will be returned.
in DataObject at line 2207
array|null
manyManyExtraFields()
Return the many-to-many extra fields specification.
If you don't specify a component name, it returns all extra fields for all components available.
in DataObject at line 2220
array|null
manyMany()
Return information about a many-to-many component.
The return value is an array of (parentclass, childclass). If $component is null, then all many-many components are returned.
in DataObject at line 2237
array|false
database_extensions(string $class)
This returns an array (if it exists) describing the database extensions that are required, or false if none
This is experimental, and is currently only a Postgres-specific enhancement.

SearchContext
getDefaultSearchContext()
Generates a SearchContext to be used for building and processing a generic search form for properties on this object.
in DataObject at line 2277
FieldList
scaffoldSearchFields(array $_params = null)
Determine which properties on the DataObject are searchable, and map them to their default {@link FormField} representations. Used for scaffolding a searchform for {@link ModelAdmin}.
Some additional logic is included for switching field labels, based on how generic or specific the field type is.
Used by {@link SearchContext}.
in DataObject at line 2352
FieldList
scaffoldFormFields(array $_params = null)
Scaffold a simple edit form for all properties on this dataobject, based on default {@link FormField} mapping in {@link DBField::scaffoldFormField()}.
Field labels/titles will be auto generated from {@link DataObject::fieldLabels()}.
in DataObject at line 2411
FieldList
getCMSFields()
Centerpiece of every data administration interface in Silverstripe, which returns a {@link FieldList} suitable for a {@link Form} object.
If not overloaded, we're using {@link scaffoldFormFields()} to automatically generate this set. To customize, overload this method in a subclass or extended onto it by using {@link DataExtension->updateCMSFields()}.
class MyCustomClass extends DataObject {
static $db = array('CustomProperty'=>'Boolean');
function getCMSFields() {
$fields = parent::getCMSFields();
$fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Content',new CheckboxField('CustomProperty'));
return $fields;
}
}
in DataObject at line 2431
FieldList
getCMSActions()
need to be overload by solid dataobject, so that the customised actions of that dataobject, including that dataobject's extensions customised actions could be added to the EditForm.
in DataObject at line 2450
FieldList
getFrontEndFields(array $params = null)
Used for simple frontend forms without relation editing or {@link TabSet} behaviour. Uses {@link scaffoldFormFields()} by default. To customize, either overload this method in your subclass, or extend it by {@link DataExtension->updateFrontEndFields()}.
in DataObject at line 2601
array
getChangedFields(boolean|array $databaseFieldsOnly = false, int $changeLevel = self::CHANGE_STRICT)
Return the fields that have changed since the last write.
The change level affects what the functions defines as "changed": - Level CHANGE_STRICT (integer 1) will return strict changes, even !== ones. - Level CHANGE_VALUE (integer 2) is more lenient, it will only return real data changes, for example a change from 0 to null would not be included.
Example return:
array(
'Title' = array('before' => 'Home', 'after' => 'Home-Changed', 'level' => DataObject::CHANGE_VALUE)
)
in DataObject at line 2669
boolean
isChanged(string $fieldName = null, int $changeLevel = self::CHANGE_STRICT)
Uses {@link getChangedFields()} to determine if fields have been changed since loading them from the database.
in DataObject at line 2780
$this
setCastedField(string $fieldName, mixed $value)
Set the value of the field, using a casting object.
This is useful when you aren't sure that a date is in SQL format, for example. setCastedField() can also be used, by forms, to set related data. For example, uploaded images can be saved into the Image table.
in DataObject at line 2846
boolean
hasDatabaseField(string $field)
Returns true if the given field exists as a database column
in DataObject at line 2863
boolean
can(string $perm, Member $member = null, array $context = array())
Returns true if the member is allowed to do the given action.
See {@link extendedCan()} for a more versatile tri-state permission control.
in DataObject at line 2907
boolean|null
extendedCan(string $methodName, Member|int $member, array $context = array())
Process tri-state responses from permission-alterting extensions. The extensions are expected to return one of three values:
- false: Disallow this permission, regardless of what other extensions say
- true: Allow this permission, as long as no other extensions return false
- NULL: Don't affect the outcome
This method itself returns a tri-state value, and is designed to be used like this:
$extended = $this->extendedCan('canDoSomething', $member);
if($extended !== null) return $extended;
else return $normalValue;

DBField
dbObject(string $fieldName)
Return the DBField object that represents the given field.
This works similarly to obj() with 2 key differences: - it still returns an object even when the field has no value. - it only matches fields and not methods - it matches foreign keys generated by has_one relationships, eg, "ParentID"
in DataObject at line 3054
mixed
relObject(string $fieldPath)
Traverses to a DBField referenced by relationships between data objects.
The path to the related field is specified with dot separated syntax (eg: Parent.Child.Child.FieldName).
If a relation is blank, this will return null instead. If a relation name is invalid (e.g. non-relation on a parent) this can throw a LogicException.
in DataObject at line 3092
mixed
relField(string $fieldName)
Traverses to a field referenced by relationships between data objects, returning the value The path to the related field is specified with dot separated syntax (eg: Parent.Child.Child.FieldName)

getReverseAssociation(string $className)
Temporary hack to return an association name, based on class, to get around the mangle of having to deal with reverse lookup of relationships to determine autogenerated foreign keys.

static DataList
get(string $callerClass = null, string|array $filter = "", string|array $sort = "", string $join = "", string|array $limit = null, string $containerClass = DataList::class)

in DataObject at line 3225
static DataObject|null
get_one(string|null $callerClass = null, string|array $filter = "", boolean $cache = true, string $orderBy = "")
Return the first item matching the given query.
All calls to get_one() are cached.
The filter argument supports parameterised queries (see SQLSelect::addWhere() for syntax examples). Because
of that (and differently from e.g. DataList::filter()) you need to manually escape the field names:
$member = DataObject::get_one('Member', [ '"FirstName"' => 'John' ]);

flushCache(boolean $persistent = true)
Flush the cached results for all relations (has_one, has_many, many_many) Also clears any cached aggregate data.

requireDefaultRecords()
Add default records to database. This function is called whenever the database is built, after the database tables have all been created. Overload this to add default records when the database is built, but make sure you call parent::requireDefaultRecords().
in DataObject at line 3566
array
searchableFields()
Get the default searchable fields for this object, as defined in the $searchable_fields list. If searchable fields are not defined on the data object, uses a default selection of summary fields.
in DataObject at line 3666
array
fieldLabels(boolean $includerelations = true)
Get any user defined searchable fields labels that exist. Allows overriding of default field names in the form interface actually presented to the user.
The reason for keeping this separate from searchable_fields, which would be a logical place for this functionality, is to avoid bloating and complicating the configuration array. Currently much of this system is based on sensible defaults, and this property would generally only be set in the case of more complex relationships between data object being required in the search interface.
Generates labels based on name of the field itself, if no static property {@link self::field_labels} exists.

string
fieldLabel(string $name)
Get a human-readable label for a single field, see {@link fieldLabels()} for more details.

summaryFields()
Get the default summary fields for this object.
in DataObject at line 3804
array
defaultSearchFilters()

provideI18nEntities()
Returns the list of provided translations for this object.
Note: Pluralised forms are always returned in array format.
Example usage:
class MyTestClass implements i18nEntityProvider
{
public function provideI18nEntities()
{
$entities = [];
foreach($this->config()->get('my_static_array') as $key => $value) {
$entities["MyTestClass.my_static_array_{$key}"] = $value;
}
$entities["MyTestClass.PLURALS"] = [
'one' => 'A test class',
'other' => '{count} test classes',
]
return $entities;
}
}
Example usage in {@link DataObject->provideI18nEntities()}.
You can ask textcollector to add the provided entity to a different module. Simply wrap the returned value for any item in an array with the format: [ 'default' => $defaultValue, 'module' => $module ]
class MyTestClass implements i18nEntityProvider
{
public function provideI18nEntities()
{
$entities = [
