Properties
$beforeTranslateCallback
Called before the translate method is executed.
public
callable
$beforeTranslateCallback
e.g. to modify translations on the fly.
Tags
$behaviors read-only
public
array<string|int, Behavior>
$behaviors
List of behaviors attached to this component.
$messageFormatter
public
MessageFormatter
$messageFormatter
The message formatter to be used to format message via ICU message format. Note that the type of this property differs in getter and setter. See [[getMessageFormatter()]] and [[setMessageFormatter()]] for details.
$messageOverwritePath
public
string
$messageOverwritePath
= '@config/messages'
path which contains message overwrites
$translations
public
array<string|int, mixed>
$translations
list of [[MessageSource]] configurations or objects. The array keys are message category patterns, and the array values are the corresponding [[MessageSource]] objects or the configurations for creating the [[MessageSource]] objects.
The message category patterns can contain the wildcard *
at the end to match multiple categories with the same prefix.
For example, app/*
matches both app/cat1
and app/cat2
.
The *
category pattern will match all categories that do not match any other category patterns.
This property may be modified on the fly by extensions who want to have their own message sources registered under their own namespaces.
The category yii
and app
are always defined. The former refers to the messages used in the Yii core
framework code, while the latter refers to the default message category for custom application code.
By default, both of these categories use [[PhpMessageSource]] and the corresponding message files are
stored under @yii/messages
and @app/messages
, respectively.
You may override the configuration of both categories.
$unsupportedYiiLanguages
Languages which are not supported by Yii.
public
array<string|int, mixed>
$unsupportedYiiLanguages
= ['an']
To overwrite this languages, a language file called "humhub.yii.php" needs to be placed in the messages folder.

Methods
__call()
Calls the named method which is not a class method.
public
__call(string $name, array<string|int, mixed> $params) : mixed
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.
Parameters
- $name : string
-
the method name
- $params : array<string|int, mixed>
-
method parameters
Tags
Return values
mixed —the method return value
__clone()
This method is called after the object is created by cloning an existing one.
public
__clone() : mixed
It removes all behaviors because they are attached to the old object.
__construct()
Constructor.
public
__construct([array<string|int, mixed> $config = [] ]) : mixed
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.
Parameters
- $config : array<string|int, mixed> = []
-
name-value pairs that will be used to initialize the object properties
__get()
Returns the value of a component property.
public
__get(string $name) : mixed
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;
.
Parameters
- $name : string
-
the property name
Tags
Return values
mixed —the property value or the value of a behavior's property
__isset()
Checks if a property is set, i.e. defined and not null.
public
__isset(string $name) : bool
This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:
- a property defined by a setter: return whether the property is set
- a property of a behavior: return whether the property is set
- return
false
for non existing properties
Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that
will be implicitly called when executing isset($component->property)
.
Parameters
- $name : string
-
the property name or the event name
Tags
Return values
bool —whether the named property is set
__set()
Sets the value of a component property.
public
__set(string $name, mixed $value) : mixed
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;
.
Parameters
- $name : string
-
the property name or the event name
- $value : mixed
-
the property value
Tags
__unset()
Sets a component property to be null.
public
__unset(string $name) : mixed
This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:
- a property defined by a setter: set the property value to be null
- a property of a behavior: set the property value to be null
Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that
will be implicitly called when executing unset($component->property)
.
Parameters
- $name : string
-
the property name
Tags
attachBehavior()
Attaches a behavior to this component.
public
attachBehavior(string $name, string|array<string|int, mixed>|Behavior $behavior) : Behavior
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 [[Behavior::attach()]] method.
Parameters
- $name : string
-
the name of the behavior.
- $behavior : string|array<string|int, mixed>|Behavior
-
the behavior configuration. This can be one of the following:
- a [[Behavior]] object
- a string specifying the behavior class
- an object configuration array that will be passed to [[Yii::createObject()]] to create the behavior object.
Tags
Return values
Behavior —the behavior object
attachBehaviors()
Attaches a list of behaviors to the component.
public
attachBehaviors(array<string|int, mixed> $behaviors) : mixed
Each behavior is indexed by its name and should be a [[Behavior]] object, a string specifying the behavior class, or an configuration array for creating the behavior.
Parameters
- $behaviors : array<string|int, mixed>
-
list of behaviors to be attached to the component
Tags
autosetLocale()
Automatically sets the current locale and time zone
public
autosetLocale() : mixed
behaviors()
Returns a list of behaviors that this component should behave as.
public
behaviors() : array<string|int, mixed>
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 [[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).
Return values
array<string|int, mixed> —the behavior configurations.
canGetProperty()
