Page Query Boss
Build complex nested queries containing multiple fields and pages and return an array or JSON. This is useful to fetch data for SPA and PWA.
You can use the Module to transform a ProcessWire Page or PageArray – even RepeaterMatrixPageArrays – into an array or JSON. Queries can be nested and contain closures as callback functions. Some field-types are transformed automatically, like Pageimages or MapMarker.
Installation
Via ProcessWire Backend
It is recommended to install the Module via the ProcessWire admin "Modules" > "Site" > "Add New" > "Add Module from Directory" using the PageQueryBoss class name.
Manually
Download the files from Github or the ProcessWire repository: https://modules.processwire.com/modules/page-query-builder/
Copy all of the files for this module into /site/modules/PageQueryBoss/ Go to “Modules > Refresh” in your admin, and then click “install” for the this module. Module Methods
There are two main methods:
Return query as JSON
$page->pageQueryJson($query); Return query as Array
$page->pageQueryArray($query); Building the query
The query can contain key and value pairs, or only keys. It can be nested and
contain closures for dynamic values. To illustrate a short example:
// simple query: $query = [ 'height', 'floors', ]; $pages->find('template=skyscraper')->pageQueryJson($query); Queries can be nested, contain page names, template names or contain functions and ProcessWire selectors:
// simple query: $query = [ 'height', 'floors', 'images', // < some fileds contain default sub-queries to return data 'files' => [ // but you can also overrdide these defaults: 'filename' 'ext', 'url', ], // Assuming there are child pages with the architec template, or a // field name with a page relation to architects 'architect' => [ // sub-query 'name', 'email' ], // queries can contain closure functions that return dynamic content 'querytime' => function($parent){ return "Query for $parent->title was built ".time(); } ]; $pages->find('template=skyscraper')->pageQueryJson($query); Keys:
A single fieldname; height or floors or architects
The Module can handle the following fields:
Strings, Dates, Integer… any default one-dimensional value Page references Pageimages Pagefiles PageArray MapMarker FieldtypeFunctional A template name; skyscraper or city
Name of a child page (page.child.name=pagename); my-page-name A ProcessWire selector; template=building, floors>=25
A new name for the returned index passed by a # delimiter:
// the field skyscraper will be renamed to "building": $query = ["skyscraper`#building`"]
Key value pars:
Any of the keys above (1-5) with an new nested sub-query array:
$query = [ 'skyscraper' => [ 'height', 'floors' ], 'architect' => [ 'title', 'email' ], ]
A named key and a closure function to process and return a query. The closure gets the parent object as argument:
$query = [ 'architecs' => function($parent) { $architects = $parent->find('template=architect'); return $architects->arrayQuery(['name', 'email']); // or return $architects->explode('name, email'); } ] Real life example:
$query = [ 'title', 'subtitle', // naming the key invitation 'template=Invitation, limit=1#invitation' => [ 'title', 'subtitle', 'body', ], // returns global speakers and local ones... 'speakers' => function($page){ $speakers = $page->speaker_relation; $speakers = $speakers->prepend(wire('pages')->find('template=Speaker, global=1, sort=-id')); // build a query of the speakers with return $speakers->arrayQuery([ 'title#name', // rename title field to name 'subtitle#ministry', // rename subtitle field to ministry 'links' => [ 'linklabel#label', // rename linklabel field to minlabelistry 'link' ], ]); }, 'Program' => [ // Child Pages with template=Program 'title', 'summary', 'start' => function($parent){ // calculate the startdate from timetables return $parent->children->first->date; }, 'end' => function($parent){ // calculate the endate from timetables return $parent->children->last->date; }, 'Timetable' => [ 'date', // date 'timetable#entry'=> [ 'time#start', // time 'time_until#end', // time 'subtitle#description', // entry title ], ], ], // ProcessWire selector, selecting children > name result "location" 'template=Location, limit=1#location' => [ 'title#city', // summary title field to city 'body', 'country', 'venue', 'summary#address', // rename summary field to address 'link#tickets', // rename ticket link 'map', // Mapmarker field, automatically transformed 'images', 'infos#categories' => [ // repeater matrix! > rename to categories 'title#name', // rename title field to name 'entries' => [ // nested repeater matrix! 'title', 'body' ] ], ], ]; if ($input->urlSegment1 === 'json') { header('Content-type: application/json'); echo $page->pageQueryJson($query); exit(); } Module default settings
The modules settings are public. They can be directly modified, for example:
$modules->get('PageQueryBoss')->debug = true; $modules->get('PageQueryBoss')->defaults = []; // reset all defaults Default queries for fields:
Some field-types or templates come with default selectors, like Pageimages etc. These are the default queries:
// Access and modify default queries: $modules->get('PageQueryBoss')->defaults['queries'] … public $defaults = [ 'queries' => [ 'Pageimages' => [ 'basename', 'url', 'httpUrl', 'description', 'ext', 'focus', ], 'Pagefiles' => [ 'basename', 'url', 'httpUrl', 'description', 'ext', 'filesize', 'filesizeStr', 'hash', ], 'MapMarker' => [ 'lat', 'lng', 'zoom', 'address', ], 'User' => [ 'name', 'email', ], ], ]; These defaults will only be used if there is no nested sub-query for the respective type. If you query a field with complex data and do not provide a sub-query, it will be transformed accordingly:
$page->pageQueryArry(['images']); // returns something like this 'images' => [ 'basename', 'url', 'httpUrl', 'description', 'ext', 'focus'=> [ 'top', 'left', 'zoom', 'default', 'str', ] ]; You can always provide your own sub-query, so the defaults will not be used:
$page->pageQueryArry([ 'images' => [ 'filename', 'description' ], ]); Overriding default queries:
You can also override the defaults, for example
$modules->get('PageQueryBoss')->defaults['queries']['Pageimages'] = [ 'basename', 'url', 'description', ]; Index of nested elements
The index for nested elements can be adjusted. This is also done with defaults. There are 3 possibilities:
Nested by name (default) Nested by ID Nested by numerical index Named index (default):
This is the default setting. If you have a field that contains sub-items, the name will be the key in the results:
// example $pagesByName = [ 'page-1-name' => [ 'title' => "Page one title", 'name' => 'page-1-name', ], 'page-2-name' => [ 'title' => "Page two title", 'name' => 'page-2-name', ] ] ID based index:
If an object is listed in $defaults['index-id'] the id will be the key in the results. Currently, no items are listed as defaults for id-based index:
// Set pages to get ID based index: $modules->get('PageQueryBoss')->defaults['index-id']['Page']; // Example return array: $pagesById = [ 123 => [ 'title' => "Page one title", 'name' => 123, ], 124 => [ 'title' => "Page two title", 'name' => 124, ] ] Number based index
By default, a couple of fields are transformed automatically to contain numbered indexes:
// objects or template names that should use numerical indexes for children instead of names $defaults['index-n'] => [ 'Pageimage', 'Pagefile', 'RepeaterMatrixPage', ]; // example $images = [ 0 => [ 'filename' => "image1.jpg", ], 1 => [ 'filename' => "image2.jpg", ] ] Tipp: When you remove the key 'Pageimage' from $defaults['index-n'], the index will again be name-based.
Help-fill closures & tipps:
These are few helpfill closure functions you might want to use or could help as a
starting point for your own (let me know if you have your own):
Get an overview of languages:
$query = ['languages' => function($page){ $ar = []; $l=0; foreach (wire('languages') as $language) { // build the json url with segment 1 $ar[$l]['url']= $page->localHttpUrl($language).wire('input')->urlSegment1; $ar[$l]['name'] = $language->name == 'default' ? 'en' : $language->name; $ar[$l]['title'] = $language->getLanguageValue($language, 'title'); $ar[$l]['active'] = $language->id == wire('user')->language->id; $l++; } return $ar; }]; Get county info from ContinentsAndCountries Module
Using the [ContinentsAndCountries Module](https://modules.processwire.com/modules/continents-and-countries/) you can extract iso
code and names for countries:
$query = ['country' => function($page){ $c = wire('modules')->get('ContinentsAndCountries')->findBy('countries', array('name', 'iso', 'code'),['code' =>$page->country]); return count($c) ? (array) $c[count($c)-1] : null; }]; Custom strings from a RepeaterTable for interface
Using a RepeaterMatrix you can create template string for your frontend. This is
usefull for buttons, labels etc. The following code uses a repeater with the
name `strings` has a `key` and a `body` field, the returned array contains the `key` field as,
you guess, keys and the `body` field as values:
// build custom translations $query = ['strings' => function($page){ return array_column($page->get('strings')->each(['key', 'body']), 'body', 'key'); }]; Multilanguage with default language fallback
Using the following setup you can handle multilanguage and return your default
language if the requested language does not exist. The url is composed like so:
`page/path/{language}/{content-type}` for example: `api/icf/zurich/conference/2019/de/json`
// get contenttype and language (or default language if not exists) $lang = wire('languages')->get($input->urlSegment1); if(!$lang instanceof Nullpage){ $user->language = $lang; } else { $lang = $user->language; } // contenttype segment 2 or 1 if language not present $contenttype = $input->urlSegment2 ? $input->urlSegment2 : $input->urlSegment1; if ($contenttype === 'json') { header('Content-type: application/json'); echo $page->pageQueryJson($query); exit(); } Debug
The module respects wire('config')->debug. It integrates with TracyDebug. You can override it like so:
// turns on debug output no mather what: $modules->get('PageQueryBoss')->debug = true; Todos
Make defaults configurable via Backend. How could that be done in style with the default queries?
Module in alpha Stage: Subject to change
This module is in alpha stage … Query behaviour (especially selecting child-templates, renaming, naming etc) could change

i am receiving and error whenever I try to run my processwire on localhost,
sql code
-- -- Table structure for table `field_fieldset_meta_end` -- CREATE TABLE `field_fieldset_meta_end` ( `pages_id` int(10) UNSIGNED NOT NULL, `data` int(11) NOT NULL ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8; -- -------------------------------------------------------- -- -- Table structure for table `field_fieldset_meta_END` -- CREATE TABLE `field_fieldset_meta_END` ( `pages_id` int(10) UNSIGNED NOT NULL, `data` int(11) NOT NULL ) ENGINE=MyISAM DEFAULT CHARSET=utf8; anyone ?
whenever I make a new database and upload it there, database get imported without errors.

By modifiedcontent
I have one central website, with membership registration and content etc., and then several related websites with their own URL/domains, each on Processwire, all on the same server.
I would like to access the database of the central website from the sister websites. How would I do that?
You can't bootstrap one PW installation into another. You can include template parts from one in the other by just using the server path, but whatever you try to get/post just comes/goes to the database of the site you are on.
Could you switch databases by including the config.php from another PW installation somewhere?
What is the correct, secure way to do this?

Hi everybody,
we started our first Processwire driven project in my new company and for the first time, I was working on one site with more than 2 colleagues on the same site.
It didn't take long for us to stumble across some problems when multiple developers work at the same time, conflicts with updating the database on vagrant machines, like duplicate entries for page IDs, errors when setting up fields and stuff like this. We ended up working on a dedicated database server, that we linked to our vagrant machines and most of the problems were gone, but the performance of this constellation is really bad compared to our first approach with database running on vagrant machines.
I already tried to find a solution in the forums but I couldn't find anyone with problems like this.
So I was wondering: how do you manage projects with multiple developers on vagrant machines in a git-based workflow?
