Properties

$subaction

public string $subaction = 'index'

The requested sub-action. This should be set by the constructor.

$subactions

public static array<string|int, mixed> $subactions = [ 'index' => ['index', 'manage_membergroups'], 'add' => ['add', 'manage_membergroups'], 'edit' => ['edit', 'manage_membergroups'], 'settings' => ['settings', 'admin_forum'], // This subaction is handled by the Groups action. 'members' => ['SMF\\Actions\\Groups::call', 'manage_membergroups'], ]

Available sub-actions.

Format: 'sa' => array('method', 'required_permission')

$obj

protected static object $obj

An instance of this class. This is used by the load() method to prevent mulitple instantiations.

$backcompat

private static array<string|int, mixed> $backcompat = ['func_names' => ['call' => 'ModifyMembergroups', 'AddMembergroup' => 'AddMembergroup', 'DeleteMembergroup' => 'DeleteMembergroup', 'EditMembergroup' => 'EditMembergroup', 'MembergroupIndex' => 'MembergroupIndex', 'ModifyMembergroupsettings' => 'ModifyMembergroupsettings']]

BackwardCompatibility settings for this class.

Methods

add()

Handles adding a membergroup and setting some initial properties.

public add() : void

Called by ?action=admin;area=membergroups;sa=add. It requires the manage_membergroups permission. Allows to use a predefined permission profile or copy one from another group. Redirects to action=admin;area=membergroups;sa=edit;group=x.

AddMembergroup()

Backward compatibility wrapper for the add sub-action.

public static AddMembergroup() : void

call()

Convenience method to load() and execute() an instance of this class.

public static call() : void

DeleteMembergroup()

Backward compatibility wrapper for the delete sub-action.

public static DeleteMembergroup() : void

edit()

Editing a membergroup.

public edit() : void

Screen to edit a specific membergroup. Called by ?action=admin;area=membergroups;sa=edit;group=x. It requires the manage_membergroups permission. Also handles the delete button of the edit form. Redirects to ?action=admin;area=membergroups.

EditMembergroup()

Backward compatibility wrapper for the edit sub-action.

public static EditMembergroup() : void

execute()

Dispatcher to whichever sub-action method is necessary.

public execute() : void

exportStatic()

Provides a way to export a class's public static properties and methods to global namespace.

public static exportStatic() : void

To do so:

  1. Use this trait in the class.
  2. At the END of the class's file, call its exportStatic() method.

Although it might not seem that way at first glance, this approach conforms to section 2.3 of PSR 1, since executing this method is simply a dynamic means of declaring functions when the file is included; it has no other side effects.

Regarding the $backcompat items:

A class's static properties are not exported to global variables unless explicitly included in $backcompat['prop_names']. Likewise, a class's static methods are not exported as global functions unless explicitly included in $backcompat['func_names'].

$backcompat['prop_names'] is a simple array where the keys are the names of one or more of a class's static properties, and the values are the names of global variables. In each case, the global variable will be set to a reference to the static property. Static properties that are not named in this array will not be exported.

$backcompat['func_names'] is a simple array where the keys are the names of one or more of a class's static methods, and the values are the names that should be used for global functions that will encapsulate those methods. Methods that are not named in this array will not be exported.

Adding non-static properties or methods to the $backcompat arrays will produce runtime errors. It is the responsibility of the developer to make sure not to do this.

getConfigVars()

Gets the configuration variables for this admin area.

public static getConfigVars() : array<string|int, mixed>
Return values
array<string|int, mixed>

$config_vars for the membergroups area.

index()

Shows an overview of the current membergroups.

public index() : void

Called by ?action=admin;area=membergroups. Requires the manage_membergroups permission. Splits the membergroups in regular ones and post count based groups. It also counts the number of members part of each membergroup.

load()

Static wrapper for constructor.

public static load() : object
Return values
object

An instance of this class.

MembergroupIndex()

Backward compatibility wrapper for the index sub-action.

public static MembergroupIndex() : void

ModifyMembergroupsettings()

Backward compatibility wrapper for the settings sub-action.

public static ModifyMembergroupsettings([bool $return_config = false ]) : void|array<string|int, mixed>
Parameters
$return_config : bool = false

Whether to return the config_vars array.

Return values
void|array<string|int, mixed>

Returns nothing or returns the config_vars array.

settings()

Set some general membergroup settings and permissions.

public settings() : void

Called by ?action=admin;area=membergroups;sa=settings Requires the admin_forum permission (and manage_permissions for changing permissions) Redirects to itself.

__construct()

Constructor. Protected to force instantiation via self::load().

protected __construct() : mixed
