Properties

$cache_step_size

public int $cache_step_size = 500

The chunk size for the cached index.

public array<string|int, mixed> $sort_links = ['all' => ['label' => 'view_all_members', 'action' => 'all', 'selected' => true], 'search' => ['label' => 'mlist_search', 'action' => 'search', 'selected' => false]]

Initial definition of the sort_links array. Labels will be replaced with the indicated $txt strings. Selected will be changed to match the current sub-action.

$subaction

public string $subaction = 'all'

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

$subactions

public static array<string|int, mixed> $subactions = ['all' => 'all', 'search' => 'search']

Available sub-actions.

$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' => 'Memberlist', 'MLAll' => 'MLAll', 'MLSearch' => 'MLSearch', 'printRows' => 'printMemberListRows', 'getCustFields' => 'getCustFieldsMList']]

BackwardCompatibility settings for this class.

Methods

all()

List all members, page by page, with sorting.

public all() : mixed

Called from MemberList(). Can be passed a sort parameter, to order the display of members. Calls printRows to retrieve the results of the query.

call()

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

public static call() : void

execute()

Shows a listing of registered members.

public execute() : void
  • If a subaction is not specified, lists all registered members.
  • It allows searching for members with the 'search' sub action.
  • It calls all() or search() depending on the sub action.
  • Requires the view_mlist permission.
  • Accessed via ?action=mlist.

Uses Memberlist template, main sub template.

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.

getCustFields()

Sets the label, sort and join info for every custom field column.

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

An array of info about the custom fields for the member list

load()

Static wrapper for constructor.

public static load() : object
Return values
object

An instance of this class.

MLAll()

Backward compatibility wrapper for the all sub-action.

public static MLAll() : void

MLSearch()

Backward compatibility wrapper for the search sub-action.

public static MLSearch() : void

printRows()

Retrieves results of the request passed to it Puts results of request into the context for the sub template.

public static printRows(resource $request) : mixed
Parameters
$request : resource

An SQL result resource

Search for members, or display search results.

public search() : mixed
  • Called by MemberList().
  • If variable 'search' is empty displays search dialog box, using the search sub template.
  • Calls printRows to retrieve the results of the query.

__construct()

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

protected __construct() : mixed
