Property Details

Hide inherited properties

$afterItem public property (available since version 2.0.11)

An anonymous function that is called once AFTER rendering each data model.

It should have the same signature as $beforeItem.

The return result of the function will be rendered directly. Note: If the function returns null, nothing will be rendered after the item.

See also renderAfterItem().

public Closure $afterItem null
$beforeItem public property (available since version 2.0.11)

An anonymous function that is called once BEFORE rendering each data model. It should have the following signature:

function ($model, $key, $index, $widget)
  • $model: the current data model being rendered
  • $key: the key value associated with the current data model
  • $index: the zero-based index of the data model in the model array returned by $dataProvider
  • $widget: the ListView object

The return result of the function will be rendered directly. Note: If the function returns null, nothing will be rendered before the item.

See also renderBeforeItem().

public Closure $beforeItem null
$itemOptions public property

The HTML attributes for the container of the rendering result of each data model. This can be either an array specifying the common HTML attributes for rendering each data item, or an anonymous function that returns an array of the HTML attributes. The anonymous function will be called once for every data model returned by $dataProvider. The "tag" element specifies the tag name of the container element and defaults to "div". If "tag" is false, it means no container element will be rendered.

If this property is specified as an anonymous function, it should have the following signature:

function ($model, $key, $index, $widget)

See also yii\helpers\Html::renderTagAttributes() for details on how attributes are being rendered.

$itemView public property

The name of the view for rendering each data item, or a callback (e.g. an anonymous function) for rendering each data item. If it specifies a view name, the following variables will be available in the view:

  • $model: mixed, the data model
  • $key: mixed, the key value associated with the data item
  • $index: integer, the zero-based index of the data item in the items array returned by $dataProvider.
  • $widget: ListView, this widget instance

Note that the view name is resolved into the view file by the current context of the $view object.

If this property is specified as a callback, it should have the following signature:

function ($model, $key, $index, $widget)
public string|callable $itemView null
$options public property

The HTML attributes for the container tag of the list view. The "tag" element specifies the tag name of the container element and defaults to "div".

See also yii\helpers\Html::renderTagAttributes() for details on how attributes are being rendered.

public array $options = [
    
'class' => 'list-view',
]
$separator public property

The HTML code to be displayed between any two consecutive items.

public string $separator "\n"
$viewParams public property

Additional parameters to be passed to $itemView when it is being rendered. This property is used only when $itemView is a string representing a view name.

public array $viewParams = []

Method Details

__call() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__call()

Calls the named method which is not a class method.

This method will check if any attached behavior has the named method and will execute it if available.

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when an unknown method is being invoked.

public mixed __call ( $name, $params )
$name string

The method name

$params array

Method parameters

return mixed

The method return value

throws yii\base\UnknownMethodException

when calling unknown method

                public function __call($name, $params)
{
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    foreach ($this->_behaviors as $object) {
        if ($object->hasMethod($name)) {
            return call_user_func_array([$object, $name], $params);
        }
    }
    throw new UnknownMethodException('Calling unknown method: ' . get_class($this) . "::$name()");
}

            
__clone() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__clone()

This method is called after the object is created by cloning an existing one.

It removes all behaviors because they are attached to the old object.

public void __clone ( )

                public function __clone()
{
    $this->_events = [];
    $this->_eventWildcards = [];
    $this->_behaviors = null;
}

            
__construct() public method

Defined in: yii\base\BaseObject::__construct()

Constructor.

The default implementation does two things:

  • Initializes the object with the given configuration $config.
  • Call init().

If this method is overridden in a child class, it is recommended that

  • the last parameter of the constructor is a configuration array, like $config here.
  • call the parent implementation at the end of the constructor.
public void __construct ( $config = [] )
$config array

Name-value pairs that will be used to initialize the object properties

                public function __construct($config = [])
{
    if (!empty($config)) {
        Yii::configure($this, $config);
    }
    $this->init();
}

            
__get() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__get()

Returns the value of a component property.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

  • a property defined by a getter: return the getter result
  • a property of a behavior: return the behavior property value

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing $value = $component->property;.

See also __set().

public mixed __get ( $name )
$name string

The property name

return mixed

The property value or the value of a behavior's property

throws yii\base\UnknownPropertyException

if the property is not defined

throws yii\base\InvalidCallException

if the property is write-only.

                public function __get($name)
{
    $getter = 'get' . $name;
    if (method_exists($this, $getter)) {
        // read property, e.g. getName()
        return $this->$getter();
    }
    // behavior property
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    foreach ($this->_behaviors as $behavior) {
        if ($behavior->canGetProperty($name)) {
            return $behavior->$name;
        }
    }
    if (method_exists($this, 'set' . $name)) {
        throw new InvalidCallException('Getting write-only property: ' . get_class($this) . '::' . $name);
    }
    throw new UnknownPropertyException('Getting unknown property: ' . get_class($this) . '::' . $name);
}

            
__isset() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__isset()

Checks if a property is set, i.e. defined and not null.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

  • a property defined by a setter: return whether the property is set
  • a property of a behavior: return whether the property is set
  • return false for non existing properties

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing isset($component->property).

See also https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.isset.php.

public boolean __isset ( $name )
$name string

The property name or the event name

return boolean

Whether the named property is set

                public function __isset($name)
{
    $getter = 'get' . $name;
    if (method_exists($this, $getter)) {
        return $this->$getter() !== null;
    }
    // behavior property
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    foreach ($this->_behaviors as $behavior) {
        if ($behavior->canGetProperty($name)) {
            return $behavior->$name !== null;
        }
    }
    return false;
}

            
__set() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__set()

Sets the value of a component property.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

  • a property defined by a setter: set the property value
  • an event in the format of "on xyz": attach the handler to the event "xyz"
  • a behavior in the format of "as xyz": attach the behavior named as "xyz"
  • a property of a behavior: set the behavior property value

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing $component->property = $value;.

See also __get().

public void __set ( $name, $value )
$name string

The property name or the event name

$value mixed

The property value

throws yii\base\UnknownPropertyException

if the property is not defined

throws yii\base\InvalidCallException

if the property is read-only.

                public function __set($name, $value)
{
    $setter = 'set' . $name;
    if (method_exists($this, $setter)) {
        // set property
        $this->$setter($value);
        return;
    } elseif (strncmp($name, 'on ', 3) === 0) {
        // on event: attach event handler
        $this->on(trim(substr($name, 3)), $value);
        return;
    } elseif (strncmp($name, 'as ', 3) === 0) {
        // as behavior: attach behavior
        $name = trim(substr($name, 3));
        $this->attachBehavior($name, $value instanceof Behavior ? $value : Yii::createObject($value));
        return;
    }
    // behavior property
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    foreach ($this->_behaviors as $behavior) {
        if ($behavior->canSetProperty($name)) {
            $behavior->$name = $value;
            return;
        }
    }
    if (method_exists($this, 'get' . $name)) {
        throw new InvalidCallException('Setting read-only property: ' . get_class($this) . '::' . $name);
    }
    throw new UnknownPropertyException('Setting unknown property: ' . get_class($this) . '::' . $name);
}

            
__unset() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__unset()

Sets a component property to be null.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

  • a property defined by a setter: set the property value to be null
  • a property of a behavior: set the property value to be null

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing unset($component->property).

See also https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.unset.php.

public void __unset ( $name )
$name string

The property name

throws yii\base\InvalidCallException

if the property is read only.

                public function __unset($name)
{

    if (method_exists($this, $setter)) {
        $this->$setter(null);
        return;
    }
    // behavior property
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    foreach ($this->_behaviors as $behavior) {
        if ($behavior->canSetProperty($name)) {
            $behavior->$name = null;
            return;
        }
    }
    throw new InvalidCallException('Unsetting an unknown or read-only property: ' . get_class($this) . '::' . $name);
}

            
afterRun() public method (available since version 2.0.11)

Defined in: yii\base\Widget::afterRun()

This method is invoked right after a widget is executed.

The method will trigger the EVENT_AFTER_RUN event. The return value of the method will be used as the widget return value.

If you override this method, your code should look like the following:

public function afterRun($result)
{
    $result = parent::afterRun($result);
    // your custom code here
    return $result;
}
public mixed afterRun ( $result )
$result mixed

The widget return result.

return mixed

The processed widget result.

                public function afterRun($result)
{
    $event = new WidgetEvent();
    $event->result = $result;
    $this->trigger(self::EVENT_AFTER_RUN, $event);
    return $event->result;
}

            
attachBehavior() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::attachBehavior()

Attaches a behavior to this component.

This method will create the behavior object based on the given configuration. After that, the behavior object will be attached to this component by calling the yii\base\Behavior::attach() method.

See also detachBehavior().

public yii\base\Behavior attachBehavior ( $name, $behavior )
$name string

The name of the behavior.

$behavior string|array|yii\base\Behavior

The behavior configuration. This can be one of the following:

return yii\base\Behavior

The behavior object

                public function attachBehavior($name, $behavior)
{
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    return $this->attachBehaviorInternal($name, $behavior);
}

            
attachBehaviors() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::attachBehaviors()

Attaches a list of behaviors to the component.

Each behavior is indexed by its name and should be a yii\base\Behavior object, a string specifying the behavior class, or an configuration array for creating the behavior.

See also attachBehavior().

public void attachBehaviors ( $behaviors )
$behaviors array

List of behaviors to be attached to the component

                public function attachBehaviors($behaviors)
{
    $this->ensureBehaviors();
    foreach ($behaviors as $name => $behavior) {
        $this->attachBehaviorInternal($name, $behavior);
    }
}

            
beforeRun() public method (available since version 2.0.11)

Defined in: yii\base\Widget::beforeRun()

This method is invoked right before the widget is executed.

The method will trigger the EVENT_BEFORE_RUN event. The return value of the method will determine whether the widget should continue to run.

When overriding this method, make sure you call the parent implementation like the following:

public function beforeRun()
{
    if (!parent::beforeRun()) {
        return false;
    }

    // your custom code here

    return true; // or false to not run the widget
}
public boolean beforeRun ( )
return boolean

Whether the widget should continue to be executed.

                public function beforeRun()
{
    $event = new WidgetEvent();
    $this->trigger(self::EVENT_BEFORE_RUN, $event);
    return $event->isValid;
}

            
begin() public static method

Defined in: yii\base\Widget::begin()

Begins a widget.

This method creates an instance of the calling class. It will apply the configuration to the created instance. A matching end() call should be called later. As some widgets may use output buffering, the end() call should be made in the same view to avoid breaking the nesting of output buffers.

See also end().

public static static begin ( $config = [] )
$config array

Name-value pairs that will be used to initialize the object properties

return yii\base\Widget

The newly created widget instance

                public static function begin($config = [])
{
    $config['class'] = get_called_class();
    /* @var $widget Widget */
    $widget = Yii::createObject($config);
    self::$stack[] = $widget;
    return $widget;
}

            
behaviors() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::behaviors()

Returns a list of behaviors that this component should behave as.

Child classes may override this method to specify the behaviors they want to behave as.

The return value of this method should be an array of behavior objects or configurations indexed by behavior names. A behavior configuration can be either a string specifying the behavior class or an array of the following structure:

'behaviorName' => [
    'class' => 'BehaviorClass',
    'property1' => 'value1',
    'property2' => 'value2',
]

Note that a behavior class must extend from yii\base\Behavior. Behaviors can be attached using a name or anonymously. When a name is used as the array key, using this name, the behavior can later be retrieved using getBehavior() or be detached using detachBehavior(). Anonymous behaviors can not be retrieved or detached.

Behaviors declared in this method will be attached to the component automatically (on demand).

public array behaviors ( )
return array

The behavior configurations.

                public function behaviors()
{
    return [];
}

            
canGetProperty() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::canGetProperty()

Returns a value indicating whether a property can be read.

A property can be read if:

  • the class has a getter method associated with the specified name (in this case, property name is case-insensitive);
  • the class has a member variable with the specified name (when $checkVars is true);
  • an attached behavior has a readable property of the given name (when $checkBehaviors is true).

        return true;
    } elseif ($checkBehaviors) {
        $this->ensureBehaviors();
        foreach ($this->_behaviors as $behavior) {
            if ($behavior->canGetProperty($name, $checkVars)) {
                return true;
            }
        }
    }
    return false;
}

            
canSetProperty() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::canSetProperty()

Returns a value indicating whether a property can be set.

A property can be written if:

  • the class has a setter method associated with the specified name (in this case, property name is case-insensitive);

on() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::on()

Attaches an event handler to an event.

The event handler must be a valid PHP callback. The following are some examples:

function ($event) { ... }         // anonymous function
[$object, 'handleClick']          // $object->handleClick()
['Page', 'handleClick']           // Page::handleClick()
'handleClick'                     // global function handleClick()

The event handler must be defined with the following signature,

function ($event)

where $event is an yii\base\Event object which includes parameters associated with the event.

Since 2.0.14 you can specify event name as a wildcard pattern:

$component->on('event.group.*', function ($event) {
    Yii::trace($event->name . ' is triggered.');
});
