# getBodyHtml()

Returns the widget's body HTML.

IWidget::getBodyHtml()

IWidget::getBodyHtml()

View source (opens new window)

Returns

string (opens new window), false (opens new window) – The widget’s body HTML, or false if the widget should not be visible. (If you don’t want the widget to be selectable in the first place, use {@link isSelectable()}.)

Signature

public string, false getBodyHtml ( )

# getIconPath()

Returns the path to the widget’s SVG icon.

IWidget::getIconPath()

IWidget::getIconPath()

View source (opens new window)

Returns

string (opens new window) – The path to the widget’s SVG icon

Signature

public string getIconPath ( )

# getName()

Returns the component’s name.

This is what your component will be called throughout the Control Panel.

IComponentType::getName()

View source (opens new window)

Returns

string (opens new window) – The component’s name.

Signature

public string getName ( )

# getSettingsHtml()

Returns the component’s settings HTML.

An extremely simple implementation would be to directly return some HTML:

return '<textarea name="foo">'.$this->getSettings()->foo.'</textarea>';

For more complex settings, you might prefer to create a template, and render it via {@link TemplatesService::render()}. For example, the following code would render a template loacated at craft/plugins/myplugin/templates/_settings.html, passing the settings to it:

return craft()->templates->render('myplugin/_settings', array(
    'settings' => $this->getSettings()
));

If you need to tie any JavaScript code to your settings, it’s important to know that any name= and id= attributes within the returned HTML will probably get {@link TemplatesService::namespaceInputs() namespaced}, however your JavaScript code will be left untouched.

For example, if getSettingsHtml() returns the following HTML:

<textarea id="foo" name="foo"></textarea>

<script type="text/javascript">
    var textarea = document.getElementById('foo');
</script>

…then it might actually look like this before getting output to the browser:

<textarea id="namespace-foo" name="namespace[foo]"></textarea>

<script type="text/javascript">
    var textarea = document.getElementById('foo');
</script>

As you can see, that JavaScript code will not be able to find the textarea, because the textarea’s id= attribute was changed from foo to namespace-foo.

Before you start adding namespace- to the beginning of your element ID selectors, keep in mind that the actual namespace is going to change depending on the context. Often they are randomly generated. So it’s not quite that simple.

Thankfully, {@link TemplatesService} provides a couple handy methods that can help you deal with this:

  • {@link TemplatesService::namespaceInputId()} will give you the namespaced version of a given ID.
  • {@link TemplatesService::namespaceInputName()} will give you the namespaced version of a given input name.
  • {@link TemplatesService::formatInputId()} will format an input name to look more like an ID attribute value.

So here’s what a getSettingsHtml() method that includes field-targeting JavaScript code might look like:

public function getSettingsHtml()
{
    // Come up with an ID value for 'foo'
    $id = craft()->templates->formatInputId('foo');

    // Figure out what that ID is going to be namespaced into
    $namespacedId = craft()->templates->namespaceInputId($id);

    // Render and return the input template
    return craft()->templates->render('myplugin/_fieldinput', array(
        'id'           => $id,
        'namespacedId' => $namespacedId,
        'settings'     => $this->getSettings()
    ));
}

And the _settings.html template might look like this:

<textarea id="{{ id }}" name="foo">{{ settings.foo }}</textarea>

<script type="text/javascript">
    var textarea = document.getElementById('{{ namespacedId }}');
</script>

The same principles also apply if you’re including your JavaScript code with {@link TemplatesService::includeJs()}.
