Member Function Documentation

close_output()

core\dataformat\base::close_output

(

)

Write the end of the file.

Reimplemented in core\dataformat\spout_base, dataformat_html\writer, dataformat_json\writer, and dataformat_pdf\writer.

close_output_to_file()

core\dataformat\base::close_output_to_file

(

)

Write the data to disk.

Calling code should have previously called {

See also

base\start_output_to_file()}

Return values

bool	Whether the write succeeded

Reimplemented in core\dataformat\spout_base, and dataformat_pdf\writer.

close_sheet()

core\dataformat\base::close_sheet

(

$columns

)

Write the end of the sheet containing the data.

Parameters

array

$columns

Reimplemented in dataformat_html\writer, and dataformat_json\writer.

export_html_image_source()

core\dataformat\base::export_html_image_source ( \stored_file $file )

protected

Given a stored_file, return a suitable source attribute for an img element in the export (or null to use the original)

Parameters

stored_file

$file

Return values

string|null

Reimplemented in dataformat_pdf\writer.

format_record()

core\dataformat\base::format_record ( $record )

protected

Parameters

array | stdClass

$record

Return values

array

get_extension()

(

)

Get the file extension.

Return values

string

file extension

replace_pluginfile_images()

core\dataformat\base::replace_pluginfile_images ( ?string $content )

protected

We need to locate all img tags within a given cell that match pluginfile URL's.

Partly so the exported file will show the image without requiring the user is logged in; and also to prevent some of the dataformats requesting the file themselves, which is likely to fail due to them not having an active session

Parameters

string | null

$content

string
