Hook for overriding Output?
Developer Preview
Hi,
upgrading Simple Registration from EE2 to EE3 I had to deprecate some functionality, specifically JSON response for errors on registration and the ability to skip the standard EE user messages.
I’d like to ask for a hook in Output->show_message() that get the $data array and that can end the execution before the final;
echo stripslashes($row['template_data'] );
exit;The “User Message” functionality of EE has always been something many users want modified/removed, whether it be during registration or any other form that will give you the standard EE error message - so I think something that enables this would be useful for many add ons/users.
Hey Bjørn,
Sorry for the delay. I think we can add this hook for you. What if we replace those last couple of lines in show_message with this:
$output = stripslashes($row['template_data']);
if (ee()->extensions->active_hook('output_show_message') === TRUE)
{
$output = ee()->extensions->call('output_show_message', $data, $output);
}
echo $output;
exit;Does that do what you need? Then you can just return whatever output data you want from the hook.
That’s great news, Kevin, and yes that should do the trick!
For the JSON responses I’d probably just do the output in the extension and exit myself, but looks like that should work fine there since not much else will be happening there after that call anyway.
Cool! We’ll get this in for 3.2, then.
Excellent, thanks! 😊
