Those triggers aren't meant for display. They're meant to be used to rewrite URLs. See the file path provided above for an example of how they're used in a plugin. All you'll have is the information provided by the URL, which in most cases is just going to be the action to perform on the plugin, the function for that action, and if there's an id then also the id. If you need further details you'll have to build out an activity object from the id so yes you'll need to build an ActivityTable object.

Yes but even building the two functions build and parse are not enough.
Should we write directly a routertrigger file in the Plugin\Activity\Trigger folder like Groupjive ?
Or do we simply need to add a new class to extend cbPluginHandler and CB will do the following ?
Can you precise how to include the functions that we wrote ?

The functions are :

Code:

function ActivationBuildRoute($query)
{

        $app        = JFactory::getApplication(); 
        $menu        = $app->getMenu();

        if (empty($query['Itemid']) || $query['option']!="com_comprofiler" || $query['view']!="pluginclass" || $query['plugin']!="cbactivity" || $query['action']!="activity"  || $query['id']!="" )
        {
            return;
        }
        
        $app        = JFactory::getApplication(); 
        $menu        = $app->getMenu();
        $segments = array();

        unset($query['Itemid']);

        $segments[] = $query['view'];
        unset( $query['view']);
        
        $segments[] = $query['plugin'];
        unset( $query['plugin']);

        $segments[] = $query['action'];
        unset( $query['action']);

        $segments[] = $query['id'];
        unset( $query['id']);

         return $segments;

}

function ActivationParseRoute($segments)
{

     $vars = array();
     $vars['view'] = $segments[0];
     $vars['plugin'] = $segments[1];
     $vars['action'] = $segments[2];
     $vars['id'] = $segments[3];

     return $vars;

}

CB GroupJive provides a fully functional working example for you. Simply copy it over and implement whatever URL rewriting behavior you need. See the below relevant files.

Custom Routing
components/com_comprofiler/plugin/user/plug_cbgroupjive/library/Trigger/RouterTrigger.php

Binding to Routing Triggers
components/com_comprofiler/plugin/user/plug_cbgroupjive/cbgroupjive.php

Can you precise how to include the functions that we wrote ?

I cannot help you with custom coding without a Business Membership, sorry.

Additionally CB Activity 6.0.0 will have URL rewriting behavior implemented from the start as well.

I'd be glad to subscribe but we don't have an answer yet from Beat since our request !

Yes but we need a quick code and anyway we'll need to implement something like menuitem/[var_params_ourowntitlefield]-[var_id] and I doubt that we could do it with CB 6 routing implementation ?

Admit that the documentation for the triggers onparseroute and onbuildroute is rather sparse and as there is no output possible to test, it's rather difficult to move on.

At least tell me if adding something like this is fine or not ? is the third argument the path to the file ?

Code:

$_PLUGINS->registerFunction( 'onBuildRoute', 'ActivationBuildRoute', '/ahatools/activations/activation_router.php' );

$_PLUGINS->registerFunction( 'onParseRoute', 'ActivationParseRoute', '/ahatools/activations/activation_router.php' );

class ActivationRouter extends \cbPluginHandler
{
     function ActivationBuildRoute($query)
    {xx}

    function ActivationParseRoute($segments)
    {xx}
}

Sorry for the delay. He's working his way through all the requests.

Correct so you would still need custom routing for that.

Admit that the documentation for the triggers onparseroute and onbuildroute is rather sparse and as there is no output possible to test, it's rather difficult to move on.

Your best option is to just directly look at existing usages in plugins.

At least tell me if adding something like this is fine or not ? is the third argument the path to the file ?

No, it's the class. You need to include your file first if you intended to store this externally.

Code:

$_PLUGINS->registerFunction( 'TRIGGER', 'FUNCTION', 'CLASS' );

Well, I followed your advice and coded this with an autoaction only acting on the menuitem id with the triggers onparseroute and onbuildroute, but no luck so far...

Any idea of what's wrong (before we get the business subscription active, then you'll deduct from the time :-)

)

Code:

use CBLib\Language\CBTxt;
use CBLib\Application\Application;
use CB\Plugin\Activity\CBActivity;

$_PLUGINS->registerFunction( 'onBuildRoute', 'build', 'ActivationRouter' );

$_PLUGINS->registerFunction( 'onParseRoute', 'parse', 'ActivationRouter' );

class ActivationRouter extends \cbPluginHandler
{
    public function build( $router, $plugin, &$segments, &$query, &$menuItem )
    {
        if ( ( $plugin !== 'cbactivity' ) || ( ! $query ) || ( ! isset( $query['action'] ) ) ) {
            return;
        }        
        $action[] = $query['action'];        
        unset( $query['action']);
        unset( $query['id']);
        $menuAction                    =    ( $menuItem && isset( $menuItem->query['action'] ) && ( $menuItem->query['action'] !== '' ) ? $menuItem->query['action'] : null );
        $menuId                        =    ( $menuItem && isset( $menuItem->query['id'] ) && ( $menuItem->query['id'] !== '' ) ? (int) $menuItem->query['id'] : null );        
    }

    public function parse( $router, $plugin, $segments, &$vars, $menuItem )
    {
        if ( ( $plugin !== 'cbactivity' ) || ( ! $segments ) ) {
            return;
        }
        $menuAction                                    =    ( $menuItem && isset( $menuItem->query['action'] ) && ( $menuItem->query['action'] !== '' ) ? $menuItem->query['action'] : null );
        $menuId                                        =    ( $menuItem && isset( $menuItem->query['id'] ) && ( $menuItem->query['id'] !== '' ) ? (int) $menuItem->query['id'] : null );
                
         $vars['action'] = 'test';
         $vars['id'] = (int) $segments[0];

    }
}
