[Extension Support] Personal Extension

[cisco007]

I have just started back into phpbb, and i had an extension that only had template injections, and css injections. but i was wondering what file do i make or edit to have it inject my ext's language file? i tried using the skeleton extension maker, but as soon as i enable the extension and refresh my board goes blank so i deleted it and wanted to start again? @Stoker @Steve any help?

You need to add that in /event/listener.php
Something like:

Code: Select all

	public function load_language_on_setup($event)
	{
		$lang_set_ext = $event['lang_set_ext'];
		$lang_set_ext[] = array(
			'ext_name' => 'solidjeuh/boardmagic',
			'lang_set' => 'common',
		);
		$event['lang_set_ext'] = $lang_set_ext;
	}

Complete example:

Code: Select all

namespace solidjeuh\boardmagic\event;

/**
* @ignore
*/
use Symfony\Component\EventDispatcher\EventSubscriberInterface;

/**
* Event listener
*/
class listener implements EventSubscriberInterface
{
	/** @var \phpbb\config\config */
	protected $config;
	/** @var \phpbb\template\template */
	protected $template;

	/**
	* Constructor
	*
	* @param \phpbb\config\config		$config
	* @param \phpbb\template\template	$template
	*
	*/
	public function __construct(\phpbb\config\config $config, \phpbb\template\template $template)
	{
		$this->config = $config;
		$this->template = $template;
	}

	static public function getSubscribedEvents()
	{
		return array(
			'core.user_setup'		=> 'load_language_on_setup',
			'core.page_footer'		=> 'page_footer',
		);
	}

	public function load_language_on_setup($event)
	{
		$lang_set_ext = $event['lang_set_ext'];
		$lang_set_ext[] = array(
			'ext_name' => 'solidjeuh/boardmagic',
			'lang_set' => 'common',
		);
		$event['lang_set_ext'] = $lang_set_ext;
	}

	public function page_footer($event)
	{
		$start_date = @gmdate('Y', $this->config['board_startdate']);
		$this->template->assign_vars(array(
			'L_COPYRIGHT_YEAR'			=> $start_date,
		));
	}
}

i thought i had it like it that, but i will check it and see. i'll keep you posted.

[cisco007]

nah, i must be doing something wrong on the config/services.yml or on the event/listerner.php files.
i've uninstalled, deleted data, cleared the cache. used STK to uninstall extension, then reactivate it. and i still get a blank board

[Stoker]

What does your services look like?

[cisco007]

Code: Select all

services:
   cisco.myaddons.listener:
        class: cisco\myaddons\event\listener
        arguments:
            - '@config'
            - '@template'
        tags:
            - { name: event.listener }

and my listener like this:

Code: Select all

<?php
/**
 *
 * myaddons. An extension for the phpBB Forum Software package.
 *
 * @copyright (c) 2025, cisco, http://phpbbmexico.com
 * @license GNU General Public License, version 2 (GPL-2.0)
 *
 */

namespace cisco\myaddons\event;

/**
* @ignore
*/
use Symfony\Component\EventDispatcher\EventSubscriberInterface;

/**
* Event listener
*/
class listener implements EventSubscriberInterface
{
	/** @var \phpbb\config\config */
	protected $config;
	/** @var \phpbb\template\template */
	protected $template;

	/**
	* Constructor
	*
	* @param \phpbb\config\config		$config
	* @param \phpbb\template\template	$template
	*
	*/
	public function __construct(\phpbb\config\config $config, \phpbb\template\template $template)
	{
		$this->config = $config;
		$this->template = $template;
	}

	static public function getSubscribedEvents()
	{
		return array(
			'core.user_setup'		=> 'load_language_on_setup',
			'core.page_footer'		=> 'page_footer',
		);
	}

	public function load_language_on_setup($event)
	{
		$lang_set_ext = $event['lang_set_ext'];
		$lang_set_ext[] = array(
			'ext_name' => 'cisco/myaddons',
			'lang_set' => 'common',
		);
		$event['lang_set_ext'] = $lang_set_ext;
	}

	public function page_footer($event)
	{
		$start_date = @gmdate('Y', $this->config['board_startdate']);
		$this->template->assign_vars(array(
			'L_COPYRIGHT_YEAR'			=> $start_date,
		));
	}
}

[Stoker]

and you do have a lang file called common in cisco\myaddons\language\en (or es or both)?

[cisco007]

yeah, something is wrong there i can't get it. if i remove the services.yml file it works, but i can't get the language variables needed.

Take a look at this version:

addcss.zip

(13.57 KiB) Downloaded 2 times

Its testet and working with lang file.
You can compare it to your own and see what went wrong

[cisco007]

i just looked at my language file for some reason it had a [ instead of a (
and when i open your lang file notepad++ says yours is unix/ansi and mine is unix/utf8. isn't that what its supposed to be?
