Constructor Details

#initialize(options = {}) ⇒ Definition

Configuration ‘definitions’ are metadata held in memory that add restriction and description to individual config entries.

By default radiant’s configuration machinery is open and ad-hoc: config items are just globally-accessible variables. They’re created when first mentioned and then available in all parts of the application. The definition mechanism is a way to place limits on that behavior. It allows you to protect a config entry, to specify the values it can take and to validate it when it changes. In the next update it will also allow you to declare that a config item is global or site-specific.

The actual defining is done by TrustyCms::Config#define and usually in a block like this:

TrustyCms::Config.prepare do |config|
  config.namespace('users', :allow_change => true) do |users|
    users.define 'allow_password_reset?', :label => 'Allow password reset?'
  end
end

See the method documentation in TrustyCms::Config for options and conventions.

Instance Method Details

#allow_blank?Boolean

Returns true unless :allow_blank has been explicitly set to false. Defaults to true. A config item that does not allow_blank must be set or it will not be valid.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)


118
119
120
# File 'lib/trusty_cms/config/definition.rb', line 118

def allow_blank?
  true unless allow_blank == false
end

#boolean?Boolean

Returns true if the definition included a :type => :boolean parameter. Config entries that end in ‘?’ are automatically considered boolean, whether a type is declared or not. config.boolean? may therefore differ from config.definition.boolean?

Returns:

  • (Boolean)


41
42
43
# File 'lib/trusty_cms/config/definition.rb', line 41

def boolean?
  type == :boolean
end

#empty?Boolean

Returns true if the definition included an :empty flag, which should only be the case for the blank, unrestricting definitions created when an undefined config item is set or got.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)


34

36
# File 'lib/trusty_cms/config/definition.rb', line 34

def empty?
  !!empty
end

#hidden?Boolean

Returns true if :allow_display has been explicitly set to false. Defaults to true.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

137
# File 'lib/trusty_cms/config/definition.rb', line 135

def hidden?
  true if allow_display == false
end

#integer?Boolean

Returns true if the definition included a :type => :integer parameter

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

# File 'lib/trusty_cms/config/definition.rb', line 52

def integer?
  type == :integer
end

#normalize_selection(choices) ⇒ Object

in definitions we accept anything that options_for_select would normally take here we standardises on an options array-of-arrays so that it’s easier to validate input

# File 'lib/trusty_cms/config/definition.rb', line 72

def normalize_selection(choices)
  choices = choices.to_a if Hash === choices
  choices = choices.collect{|c| (c.is_a? Array) ? c : [c,c]}
end

#selectable?(value) ⇒ Boolean

Returns true if the value is one of the permitted selections. Not case-sensitive.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

# File 'lib/trusty_cms/config/definition.rb', line 111

def selectable?(value)
  return true unless selector?
  selection.map(&:last).map(&:downcase).include?(value.downcase)
end

#selected(value) ⇒ Object

If the config item is a selector and :select_from specifies [name, value] pairs (as hash or array), this will return the name corresponding to the currently selected value.

def selected(value)
  if value && selector? && pair = selection.find{|s| s.last == value}
    pair.first
  end
end

#selectionObject

Returns the list of possible values for this config entry in a form suitable for passing to options_for_select. if :select_from is a proc it is called first with no arguments and its return value passed through.

    choices = normalize_selection(choices)
    choices.unshift ["",""] if allow_blank?
    choices
  end
end

Returns true if the definition included a :select_from parameter (either as list or proc).

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

end

#settable?Boolean

Returns true unless :allow_change has been explicitly set to false. Defaults to true. A config item that is not settable cannot be changed in the running application.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)

# File 'lib/trusty_cms/config/definition.rb', line 124

def settable?
  true unless allow_change == false
end

#validate(setting) ⇒ Object

Checks the supplied value against the validation rules for this definition. There are several ways in which validations might be defined or implied:

  • if :validate_with specifies a block, the setting object is passed to the block

  • if :type is :integer, we test that the supplied string resolves to a valid integer

  • if the config item is a selector we test that its value is one of the permitted options

  • if :allow_blank has been set to false, we test that the value is not blank

#visible?Boolean

Returns true unless :allow_change has been explicitly set to false. Defaults to true. A config item that is not visible cannot be displayed in a radius tag.
