MessageFormatter extends Component
in package

Application

MessageFormatter allows formatting messages via [ICU message format](https://unicode-org.github.io/icu/userguide/format_parse/messages/).

This class enhances the message formatter class provided by the PHP intl extension.

The following enhancements are provided:

It accepts named arguments and mixed numeric and named arguments.
Issues no error when an insufficient number of arguments have been provided. Instead, the placeholders will not be substituted.
Fixes PHP 5.5 weird placeholder replacement in case no arguments are provided at all (https://bugs.php.net/bug.php?id=65920).
Offers limited support for message formatting in case PHP intl extension is not installed. However it is highly recommended that you install PHP intl extension if you want to use MessageFormatter features.

The fallback implementation only supports the following message formats:
- plural formatting for english ('one' and 'other' selectors)
- select format
- simple parameters
- integer number parameters
The fallback implementation does NOT support the 'apostrophe-friendly' syntax. Also messages that are working with the fallback implementation are not necessarily compatible with the PHP intl MessageFormatter so do not rely on the fallback if you are able to install intl extension somehow.

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

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

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

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

__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

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.

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

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()

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).

Parameters

$name : string: the property name
$checkVars : bool = true: whether to treat member variables as properties
$checkBehaviors : bool = true: whether to treat behaviors' properties as properties of this component

off()

Detaches an existing event handler from this component.


    public
                    off(string $name[, callable|null $handler = null ]) : bool

This method is the opposite of [[on()]].

Note: in case wildcard pattern is passed for event name, only the handlers registered with this wildcard will be removed, while handlers registered with plain names matching this wildcard will remain.

Parameters

    public
                    on(string $name, callable $handler[, mixed $data = null ][, bool $append = true ]) : mixed

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 [[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.');
});

Parameters

$name : string: the event name
$handler : callable: the event handler
$data : mixed = null: the data to be passed to the event handler when the event is triggered. When the event handler is invoked, this data can be accessed via [[Event::data]].
$append : bool = true: whether to append new event handler to the end of the existing handler list. If false, the new handler will be inserted at the beginning of the existing handler list.

parse()
