class EfFieldFormatter implements IteratorAggregate, Countable

Base class for Entity fields. Extend this class to implement custom field formatter.

Methods

__construct(EntityMetadataWrapper $property, bool $isMultivalue)

Constructor.

array|string
value()

Returns the current field item as a raw array.

array
values()

Returns all raw field items in an array.

all()

Returns an array of all field items as EfFieldFormatter objects.

array
setDelta($delta)

Set the current field delta.

bool
isDeltaValid(null $delta = NULL)

Checks if the given or current field delta exists.

bool
notEmpty()

Shortcut for the possible not so easy to understand isDeltaValid() method.

bool
isAccessible()

Check if current user is allowed to view this field.

getIterator()

Implementing IteratorAggregate interface.

int
count()

Implementing Countable interface.
