| |
− | <!-- Pod2Wiki=head_description -->=DESCRIPTION=
| |
− | This class represents a single node in the subejcts tree. It also contains a number of methods for handling the entire tree.
| |
− |
| |
− | EPrints::DataObj::Subject is a subclass of EPrints::DataObj

| |
− | $subject = EPrints::DataObj::Subject->new( $session, $subjectid )
| |
− |
| |
− | Create a new subject object given the id of the subject. The values for the subject are loaded from the database.

| |
− |
| |
− | Construct a new subject object from a hash reference containing the relevant fields. Generally this method is only used to construct new Subjects coming out of the database.

− | Similar to EPrints::DataObj::Subject::create, but this creates the new subject as a child of the current subject.

− | $boolean = $subject->can_post( [$user] )
| |
− |
| |
− | Determines whether the given user can post in this subject.
| |
− |
| |
− | Currently there is no way to configure subjects for certain users, so this just returns the true or false depending on the "depositable" flag.

| |
− |
| |
− | Return the name of this subject including it's path from $topsubjid.
| |
− |
| |
− | $topsubjid must be an ancestor of this subject.

| |
− |
| |
− | @paths = $subject->get_paths( $session, $topsubjid )
| |
− |
| |
− | This function returns all the paths from this subject back up to the specified top subject.
| |
− |
| |
− | @paths is an array of array references. Each of the inner arrays is a list of subject id's describing a path down the tree from $topsubjid to $session.

| |
− |
| |
− | $subject_pairs = $subject->get_subjects ( [$postable_only], [$show_top_level], [$nes_tids], [$no_nest_label] )
| |
− |
| |
− | Return a reference to an array. Each item in the array is a two element list.
| |
− |
| |
− | The first element in the list is an indenifier string.
| |
− |
| |
− | The second element is a utf-8 string describing the subject (in the current language), including all the items above it in the tree, but only as high as this subject.
| |
− |
| |
− | The subjects which are returned are this item and all its children, and childrens children etc. The order is it returns this subject, then the first child of this subject, then children of that (recursively), then the second child of this subject etc.
| |
− |
| |
− | If $postable_only is true then filter the results to only contain subjects which have the "depositable" flag set to true.
| |
− |
| |
− | If $show_top_level is not true then the pair representing the current subject is not included at the start of the list.
| |
− |
| |
− | If $nest_ids is true then each then the ids retured are nested so that the ids of the children of this subject are prefixed with this subjects id and a colon, and their children are prefixed by their nested id and a colon. eg. L:LC:LC003 rather than just "LC003"
| |
− |
| |
− | if $no_nest_label is true then the subject label only contains the name of the subject, not the higher level ones.
| |
− |
| |
− | A default result from this method would look something like this:
| |
− |
| |
− | [
| |
− | [ "D", "History" ],
| |
− | [ "D1", "History: History (General)" ],
| |
− | [ "D111", "History: History (General): Medieval History" ]

− |
| |
− | Get all the subjects for the current archvive of $session.
| |
− |
| |
− | $subject_map is a reference to a hash. The keys of the hash are the id's of the subjects. The values of the hash are the EPrint::Subject object relating to that id.
| |
− |
| |
− | $reverse_map is a reference to a hash. Each key is the id of a subject. Each value is a reference to an array. The array contains a EPrints::DataObj::Subject objects, one for each child of the subject with the id. The array is sorted by the labels for the subjects, in the current language.
