InputfieldImage::processUnknownFileAction() method

Called when a select dropdown action was received that InputfieldImage does not recognize (for hooking purposes)

This is what should be hooked to provide the processing for a custom action added from a hook. See the ___getFileActions() method documentation for full example including both hooks.

Usage

$bool = $inputfieldImage->processUnknownFileAction(Pageimage $pagefile, string $action, string $label);

Arguments

Name	Type(s)	Description
`pagefile`	Pageimage	Image file to process
`action`	string	Action to execute
`label`	string	Label that was provided to describe action

Return value

bool null

Returns true on success, false on fail, or null if action was not handled or recognized

Hooking InputfieldImage::processUnknownFileAction(…)

You can add your own hook events that are executed either before or after the InputfieldImage::processUnknownFileAction(…) method is executed. Examples of both are included below. A good place for hook code such as this is in your /site/ready.php file.

Hooking before

The 'before' hooks are called immediately before each InputfieldImage::processUnknownFileAction(…) method call is executed. This type of hook is especially useful for modifying arguments before they are sent to the method.

$this->addHookBefore('InputfieldImage::processUnknownFileAction', function(HookEvent $event) {
  // Get the object the event occurred on, if needed
  $InputfieldImage = $event->object;

  // Get values of arguments sent to hook (and optionally modify them)
  $pagefile = $event->arguments(0);
  $action = $event->arguments(1);
  $label = $event->arguments(2);

  /* Your code here, perhaps modifying arguments */

  // Populate back arguments (if you have modified them)
  $event->arguments(0, $pagefile);
  $event->arguments(1, $action);
  $event->arguments(2, $label);
});

Hooking after

The 'after' hooks are called immediately after each InputfieldImage::processUnknownFileAction(…) method call is executed. This type of hook is especially useful for modifying the value that was returned by the method call.

$this->addHookAfter('InputfieldImage::processUnknownFileAction', function(HookEvent $event) {
  // Get the object the event occurred on, if needed
  $InputfieldImage = $event->object;

  // An 'after' hook can retrieve and/or modify the return value
  $return = $event->return;

  // Get values of arguments sent to hook (if needed)
  $pagefile = $event->arguments(0);
  $action = $event->arguments(1);
  $label = $event->arguments(2);

  /* Your code here, perhaps modifying the return value */

  // Populate back return value, if you have modified it
  $event->return = $return;
});
