Hi,
I wonder if it is possible to get the parent object of a file and I even found a solution but I’m not sure is this is the best and shortest way … Here’s what I came up with:
function get_parent($object) {
$objectPath = explode('/', $object->url());
//a::show($objectPath);
$pageUriStart = array_search('content', $objectPath)+1;
//echo "Start bei $pageUriStart<br>";
$pageUriEnd = count($objectPath)-2;
//echo "Ende bei bei $pageUriEnd<br>";
$objectPath = array_slice($objectPath, $pageUriStart, $pageUriEnd-$pageUriStart+1);
//a::show($objectPath);
$pageUri = array();
foreach ($objectPath as $p) {
$part = explode('-', $p);
array_shift($part);
$part = implode('-', $part);
//echo "Part: $part<br>";
array_push($pageUri, $part);
//a::show($pageUri);
}
$pageUri = implode('/', $pageUri);
//echo "URI: $pageUri<br>";
return page($pageUri);
}
I saved this in plugins/
as get_perent.php
. Is this a good way to make it available anywhere?
Bonus question: How can I transform this into something like $object->getPartent().
Background: Im building a function figure($image)
that gets an image file object and prepares the HTML output with all tags and a link to a bigger version of the image. The image is named image.jpg
and the bigger version myimage-big.jpg
for instance, and I want to be able to finde the bigger image automatically since they will be always named by the scheme “append -big
”.
Thanks for your comments!
