Gallery3:Developer Handbook:Event Hooks

From Gallery Codex

Contents

Disclaimer: I am not one of the Gallery 3 developers. I have written a couple of modules and have made one of them (emboss) available as a 3rd party Gallery 3 contribution. The following is simply what I have been able to weasel out of the code by reading through it. If you find anything that is incorrect, PLEASE feel free to either make the corrections yourself or contact me and I will make the changes.

The Gallery3 Modules page provides a list of all nearly all of the event hooks defined by Gallery 3, but does not provide any details about what triggers these hooks or the arguments provided to the hooks. The following is an attempt to tackle this omission. I have attempted to group the events in a somewhat logical order... but they don't necessarily fit cleanly into any categorization. If you have a suggestion for a better way of laying them out, please feel free to let me know.

Each of the following hook description follows a similar (exact?) pattern, showing when the hook is triggered, what arguments are sent to the handler function, an example stack trace (or two), and a list of the modules that I could find that currently implement a handler for the hook. Note that the stack traces are not necessarily the only scenarios; they are simply those that I could find by walking backward through the code. Note too that the location of the handler is well-defined for any given module (i.e. module/example/helpers/example_events.php) and thus are not spelled out for each hook.

Finally, I am not as comfortable with writing themes as I am with writing modules (not that I'm terribly proficient there either). I suspect the stack trace often begins within a theme implementation. When I could figure this out, I identified it. When I could not, I began the stack trace up as far as I could crawl backward through the php code.

Form Population Events

Most of the events in this section follow a common pattern. In particular, they come in pairs: one event (xxx_form) is sent while the form is being constructed (after all of the nominal fields have been added), and the other (xxx_form_completed) is sent after the nominal action driven by the form has completed. Note that the completed event is only sent if the form has been successfully validated.
