$node access from QForm
Fri, 08/14/2009 - 16:49
I'm working with the new release of QDrupal attempting to port over my forms that worked with the previous version of QDrupal. I started out by creating a basic form (unrelated to my old forms) and I've been able to successfully render the form in the node, however I cannot access drupal's $node variable. I executed get_defined_vars() while inside the QForm and only found the variables passed into qdrupal_run_qform function. With the new version of QDrupal, is there a new way to access $node and other drupal variables?
Thanks!
I did a little test and got this working:
<?php
global $GLOBALS;
class FirstForm extends QForm{
protected function Form_Create(){
$x = $GLOBALS;
var_dump($x['user']);
}
}
?>
I believe you can just do global $node;
You have access to all of drupals functions inside the form, if you want a drupal varaible just add the global in front of it..
Thanks so much for the replies-
I tried declaring global $GLOBALS outside before the form_create function. I was able to get the $user object as you had indicated, though $node was not found in the array.
I also tried just accessing global $node and I could not access the node information either ($node came back null/undefined).
Just to clarify, I still haven't been able to successfully access the Drupal $node variable.
I'm currently getting around it by passing in the node when running qdrupal_run_qform instead of just the $node->title (and subsequently changed the qdrupal_run_qform function as well), though I'd prefer not to change QDrupal code if the $node variable can be accessed any other way.
Any ideas?
Mike Hostetler sent me an email with the following solution inside the qform's Form_Create(), which I tried out and it works just fine.
$nid = arg(1);
$objNode = node_load($nid);
Thanks Mike.
Phobulous - if you can do a write-up on how to integrate QCubed with Drupal, it'd really, really help the community. Would you be up for it?
It was great to be around some of the conscious people and just relax a bit.
