Properties

$obj

protected static object $obj

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

$backcompat

private static array<string|int, mixed> $backcompat = ['func_names' => ['call' => 'AcceptAgreement']]

BackwardCompatibility settings for this class.

Methods

call()

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

public static call() : void

canRequireAgreement()

Checks whether this user needs to accept the registration agreement.

public static canRequireAgreement() : bool
Return values
bool

Whether they need to accept the agreement.

canRequirePrivacyPolicy()

Checks whether this user needs to accept the privacy policy.

public static canRequirePrivacyPolicy() : bool
Return values
bool

Whether they need to accept the policy.

execute()

I solemly swear to no longer chase squirrels.

public execute() : void

Called when they actually accept the agreement and privacy policy. Saves the date when they accepted to the members database table. Redirects back to wherever they came from.

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.

load()

Static wrapper for constructor.

public static load() : object
Return values
object

An instance of this class.

__construct()

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

protected __construct() : mixed

prepareAgreementContext()

Loads the registration agreement and privacy policy into Utils::$context for display.

protected prepareAgreementContext() : void
