Overview

AbstractFormat manages the basic format API, including API to define a #view. Whenever you create a format block in a set module in a mod, you create a format module that is extended with AbstractFormat.

def set_module
  Card.const_get name.split("::")[0..-2].join("::")
end

#setting(name) ⇒ Object

Defines a setting method that can be used in all formats. Example:

format do
  setting :cols
  cols 5, 7

  view :some_view do
    cols  # => [5, 7]
  end
end

Parameters:

  • name (Symbol) —

#view(viewname, *args, &block) ⇒ Object

Views are the primary way that both sharks and monkeys interact with cards. Sharks select views to use in nests. Monkeys can define and tweak those views. These docs will introduce the basics of view definition.

## Sample view definitions

Here is a very simple view that just defines a label for the card(its name):

view :label do
  card.name
end

View definitions can take the following forms:

view :viewname[, option_hash][, &block]          # standard
view :viewname, alias_to_viewname[, option_hash] # aliasing

## View definition options

  • :alias_to [Symbol] name of view to which this view should be aliased. View must already be defined in self or specified mod.

  • :async render view asynchronously by first rendering a card placeholder and then completing a request. Only applies to HtmlFormat

  • :cache directs how to handle caching for this view. Supported values:

    * *:standard* - (default)
* *:always* - cache even when rendered within another cached view
* *:never* - don't ever cache this view. Frequently used to prevent caching
  problems

    You should certainly learn more about caching if you want to develop mods that are safe in a caching environment.

  • :compact [True/False]. Is view acceptable for rendering inside ‘compact` view? Default is false.

  • :denial [Symbol]. View to render if permission is denied. Value can be any viewname. Default is ‘:denial`. `:blank` is a common alternative.

  • :perms restricts view permissions. Supported values:

    * *:create*, *:read* (default), *:update*, *:delete* - only users with the
  given permission for the card viewed.
* *:none* - no permission check; anyone can view
* a *Proc* object.  Eg `perms: ->(_fmt) { Auth.needs_setup? }`

  • :template [Symbol] view is defined in a template. Currently ‘:haml` is the only supported value. See HamlViews

  • :unknown [True/False, Symbol]. Configures handling of “unknown” cards. (See card states). Supported values:

    * *true* render view even if card is unknown
* *false* default unknown handling (depends on context, create permissions,
  etc)
* a *Symbol*: name of view to render

  • :wrap wrap view dynamically. Value is Symbol for wrapper or Hash with wrappers and wrapper options. See Wrapper
