TcaDescription extends AbstractNode
Render localized ['columns']['theField']['description'] text as default field information node. This is typically displayed in elements below the element label and the field content.
since v14.2, will be removed in v15. Description is now rendered next to the label by AbstractFormElement::renderDescription() and AbstractContainer::wrapWithFieldsetAndLegend().
Table of Contents
Properties
- $data : array<string|int, mixed>
- Main data array to work on, given from parent to child elements
- $defaultFieldControl : array<string|int, mixed>
- A list of default field controls added to the element / container.
- $defaultFieldInformation : array<string|int, mixed>
- A list of default field information added to the element / container.
- $defaultFieldWizard : array<string|int, mixed>
- A list of default field wizards added to the element / container.
Methods
- render() : array<string|int, mixed>
- Handler for single nodes
- setData() : void
- Retrieve the current data array from NodeFactory.
- getValidationDataAsJsonString() : string
- Build JSON string for validations rules.
- initializeResultArray() : array<string|int, mixed>
- Initialize the array that is returned to parent after calling. This structure is identical for *all* nodes. Parent will merge the return of a child with its own stuff and in itself return an array of the same structure.
- mergeChildReturnIntoExistingResult() : array<string|int, mixed>
- Merge existing data with a child return array.
