Member Function Documentation

◆ call_external_function()

static external_api::call_external_function (   $function,
  $args,
  $ajaxonly = false 
)
staticinherited

Call an external function validating all params/returns correctly.

Note that an external function may modify the state of the current page, so this wrapper saves and restores tha PAGE and COURSE global variables before/after calling the external function.

Parameters
string$functionA webservice function name.
array$argsParams array (named params)
boolean$ajaxonlyIf true, an extra check will be peformed to see if ajax is required.
Return values
arraycontaining keys for error (bool), exception and data.

◆ clean_returnvalue()

static external_api::clean_returnvalue ( external_description  $description,
  $response 
)
staticinherited

Clean response If a response attribute is unknown from the description, we just ignore the attribute.

If a response attribute is incorrect, invalid_response_exception is thrown. Note: this function is similar to validate parameters, however it is distinct because parameters validation must be distinct from cleaning return values.

Parameters
external_description$descriptiondescription of the return values
mixed$responsethe actual response
Return values
mixedresponse with added defaults for optional items, invalid_response_exception thrown if any problem found

◆ external_function_info()

static external_api::external_function_info (   $function,
  $strictness = MUST_EXIST 
)
staticinherited

Returns detailed function information.

Parameters
string | object$functionname of external function or record from external_function
int$strictnessIGNORE_MISSING means compatible mode, false returned if record not found, debug message if more found; MUST_EXIST means throw exception if no record or multiple records found
Return values
stdClassdescription or false if not found or exception thrown
Since
Moodle 2.0

◆ get_context_from_params()

static external_api::get_context_from_params (   $param)
staticprotectedinherited

Get context from passed parameters.

The passed array must either contain a contextid or a combination of context level and instance id to fetch the context. For example, the context level can be "course" and instanceid can be courseid.

See context_helper::get_all_levels() for a list of valid context levels.

Parameters
array$param
Since
Moodle 2.6
Exceptions
invalid_parameter_exception
Return values
context

◆ get_context_parameters()

static external_api::get_context_parameters ( )
staticprotectedinherited

Returns a prepared structure to use a context parameters.

Return values
external_single_structure

Reimplemented in core_competency\external, and tool_lp\external.

◆ get_trusted_h5p_file()

static core_h5p\external::get_trusted_h5p_file ( string  $url,
int  $frame,
int  $export,
int  $embed,
int  $copyright 
)
static

Return the H5P file trusted.

The Mobile App needs to work with an H5P package which can trust. And this H5P package is only trusted by the Mobile App once it's been processed by the core checking the right caps, validating the H5P package and doing any clean-up process involved.

Since
Moodle 3.8
Parameters
string$urlH5P file url
int$frameThe frame allow to show the bar options below the content
int$exportThe export allow to download the package
int$embedThe embed allow to copy the code to your site
int$copyrightThe copyright option
Return values
array
Exceptions
moodle_exception

◆ get_trusted_h5p_file_parameters()

static core_h5p\external::get_trusted_h5p_file_parameters ( )
static

get_trusted_h5p_file parameters.

Since
Moodle 3.8
Return values
external_function_parameters

◆ get_trusted_h5p_file_returns()

static core_h5p\external::get_trusted_h5p_file_returns ( )
static

get_trusted_h5p_file return

Since
Moodle 3.8
Return values
external_description

◆ set_context_restriction()

static external_api::set_context_restriction (   $context)
staticinherited

Set context restriction for all following subsequent function calls.

Parameters
stdClass$contextthe context restriction
Since
Moodle 2.0

◆ set_timeout()

static external_api::set_timeout (   $seconds = 360)
staticinherited

This method has to be called before every operation that takes a longer time to finish!

Parameters
int$secondsmax expected time the next operation needs
Since
Moodle 2.0

◆ validate_context()

static external_api::validate_context (   $context)
staticinherited

Makes sure user may execute functions in this context.

Parameters
stdClass$context
Since
Moodle 2.0

◆ validate_parameters()

static external_api::validate_parameters ( external_description  $description,
  $params 
)
staticinherited

Validates submitted function parameters, if anything is incorrect invalid_parameter_exception is thrown.

This is a simple recursive method which is intended to be called from each implementation method of external API.

Parameters
external_description$descriptiondescription of parameters
mixed$paramsthe actual parameters
Return values
mixedparams with added defaults for optional items, invalid_parameters_exception thrown if any problem found
