Folder structure

The following folders are available:

├── content               = content files
│   ├── 1-home            = home page
│   └── shared            = shared files
├── media                 = media files
│   ├── downloads         = files to download
│   ├── images            = image files for content
│   └── thumbnails        = image thumbnails for content
└── system                = system files
    ├── extensions        = extension files and settings
    ├── layouts           = configurable layout files
    ├── themes            = configurable theme files
    └── trash             = deleted files

The content folder contains the content files of the website. You can edit the website here. The media folder contains the media files of the website. You can store images and other files here. The system folder contains the system files of the website. You can customise the website and create your own extensions here.

Objects

The following objects are available:

$this->yellow->page = access to current page
$this->yellow->content = access to content files
$this->yellow->media = access to media files
$this->yellow->system = access to system settings
$this->yellow->user = access to user settings
$this->yellow->language = access to language settings
$this->yellow->extension = access to extensions
$this->yellow->toolbox = access to toolbox with helper functions

With the help of $this->yellow you can access the website. The API is divided into several objects and basically reflects the file system. In the toolbox you can find helper functions and file operations for your own extensions. The source code of the entire API can be found in file system/extensions/core.php.

When a page is displayed, the extensions are loaded and onLoad will be called. As soon as all extensions are loaded onStartup will be called. The page can be handled with various onParse events. Then the page content will be generated. If an error has occurred, an error page will be generated. Finally the page is output and onShutdown will be called.

When a page is edited, the extensions are loaded and onLoad will be called. As soon as all extensions are loaded onStartup will be called. Changes at the page can be handled with various onEdit events. Then the page will be saved. Finally a status code is output to reload the page and onShutdown will be called.

When a command is executed, the extensions are loaded and onLoad will be called. As soon as all extensions are loaded onStartup will be called. The command can be handled with onCommand. If no command has been entered, onCommandHelp will be called and extensions can provide a help. Finally a return code is output and onShutdown will be called.

Yellow core events

Yellow core events notify when a page is displayed or a state has changed:

public function onLoad($yellow)
Handle initialisation

public function onStartup()
Handle startup

public function onUpdate($action)
Handle update

public function onRequest($scheme, $address, $base, $location, $fileName)
Handle request

public function onParseMeta($page)
Handle page meta data

public function onParseContentRaw($page, $text)
Handle page content in raw format

public function onParseContentShortcut($page, $name, $text, $type)
Handle page content of shortcut

public function onParseContentHtml($page, $text)

    // Handle initialisation
    public function onLoad($yellow) {
        $this->yellow = $yellow;
    }

    // Handle page content of shortcut
    public function onParseContentShortcut($page, $name, $text, $type) {
        $output = null;
        if ($name=="example" && ($type=="block" || $type=="inline")) {
            $output = "<div class=\"".htmlspecialchars($name)."\">";
            $output .= "Add more HTML code here";
            $output .= "</div>";
        }
        return $output;
    }
}

        $this->yellow = $yellow;
    }

    // Handle media file changes
    public function onEditMediaFile($file, $action, $email) {
        if ($action=="upload") {
            $fileName = $file->fileName;
            $fileType = $this->yellow->toolbox->getFileType($file->get("fileNameShort"));
            // Add more code here
        }
    }
}

Yellow command events

Yellow command events notify when a command is executed:

public function onCommand($command, $text)
Handle command

public function onCommandHelp()
Handle command help

Here's an example extension for handling a command:

    public function onCommand($command, $text) {
        $statusCode = 0;
        if ($command=="example") {

            $statusCode = 200;
        }
        return $statusCode;
    }

    // Handle command help
    public function onCommandHelp() {
        return "example\n";
    }
}

Miscellaneous

The following functions extend PHP string functions:

strtoloweru($string)
Make string lowercase, UTF-8 compatible

strtoupperu($string)
Make string uppercase, UTF-8 compatible

strlenu($string) + strlenb($string)
Return string length, UTF-8 characters or bytes

strposu($string, $search) + strposb($string, $search)
Return string position of first match, UTF-8 characters or bytes

strrposu($string, $search) + strrposb($string, $search)
Return string position of last match, UTF-8 characters or bytes

substru($string, $start, $length) + substrb($string, $start, $length)
Return part of a string, UTF-8 characters or bytes

strempty($string)
Check if string is empty

Here's an example code for using various string functions:

$string = "Datenstrom Yellow is for people who make small websites";
echo strtoloweru($string);    // datenstrom yellow is for people who make small websites
echo strtoupperu($string);    // DATENSTROM YELLOW IS FOR PEOPLE WHO MAKE SMALL WEBSITES

$string = "Text with UTF-8 characters åäö";
echo strlenu($string);        // 30
echo strposu($string, "UTF"); // 10
echo substru($string, -3, 3); // åäö

var_dump(strempty("text"));   // bool(false)
var_dump(strempty("0"));      // bool(false)
var_dump(strempty(""));       // bool(true)
