Detailed Description

This class represents the result of the API operations.

It simply wraps a nested array structure, adding some functions to simplify array's modifications. As various modules execute, they add different pieces of information to this result, structuring it as it will be given to the client.

Each subarray may either be a dictionary - key-value pairs with unique keys, or lists, where the items are added using $data[] = $value notation.

Since
1.25 this is no longer a subclass of ApiBase

◆ getResultData()

ApiResult::getResultData ( $path = [],
$transforms = [] )

Get the result data array.

The returned value should be considered read-only.

Transformations include:

Custom: (callable) Applied before other transformations. Signature is function ( &$data, &$metadata ), return value is ignored. Called for each nested array.

BC: (array) This transformation does various adjustments to bring the output in line with the pre-1.25 result format. The value array is a list of flags: 'nobool', 'no*', 'nosub'.

  • Boolean-valued items are changed to '' if true or removed if false, unless listed in META_BC_BOOLS. This may be skipped by including 'nobool' in the value array.
  • The tag named by META_CONTENT is renamed to '*', and META_CONTENT is set to '*'. This may be skipped by including 'no*' in the value array.
  • Tags listed in META_BC_SUBELEMENTS will have their values changed to [ '*' => $value ]. This may be skipped by including 'nosub' in the value array.
  • If META_TYPE is 'BCarray', set it to 'default'
  • If META_TYPE is 'BCassoc', set it to 'default'
  • If META_TYPE is 'BCkvp', perform the transformation (even if the Types transformation is not being applied).

Types: (assoc) Apply transformations based on META_TYPE. The values array is an associative array with the following possible keys:

  • AssocAsObject: (bool) If true, return arrays with META_TYPE 'assoc' as objects.
  • ArmorKVP: (string) If provided, transform arrays with META_TYPE 'kvp' and 'BCkvp' into arrays of two-element arrays, something like this: $output = []; foreach ( $input as $key => $value ) { $pair = []; $pair[$META_KVP_KEY_NAME ?: $ArmorKVP_value] = $key; ApiResult::setContentValue( $pair, 'value', $value ); $output[] = $pair; }

Strip: (string) Strips metadata keys from the result.

  • 'all': Strip all metadata, recursively
  • 'base': Strip metadata at the top-level only.
  • 'none': Do not strip metadata.
  • 'bc': Like 'all', but leave certain pre-1.25 keys.

◆ META_TYPE

const ApiResult::META_TYPE = '_type'

Key for the 'type' metadata item.

Value is one of the following strings:

  • default: Like 'array' if all (non-metadata) keys are numeric with no gaps, otherwise like 'assoc'.
  • array: Keys are used for ordering, but are not output. In a format like JSON, outputs as [].
  • assoc: In a format like JSON, outputs as {}.
  • kvp: For a format like XML where object keys have a restricted character set, use an alternative output format. For example, <container>value</container> rather than <container key="value" >
  • BCarray: Like 'array' normally, 'default' in backwards-compatibility mode.
  • BCassoc: Like 'assoc' normally, 'default' in backwards-compatibility mode.
  • BCkvp: Like 'kvp' normally. In backwards-compatibility mode, forces the alternative output format for all formats, for example [{"name":key,"*":value}] in JSON. META_KVP_KEY_NAME must also be set.
