1 Global Functions
- 1.1 Check if a BMO module class has a callable method
- 1.2 Get all modules that have method
- 1.3 Check status
- 1.4 Get signature of Module
- 1.5 Parse Module XML

Check if a BMO module class has a callable method

Check if a BMO module class has a callable method, will check status of said module first before checking on it

/**
 * Check to see if said module has method and is publicly callable
 * @param {string} $module The raw module name
 * @param {string} $method The method name
 */
FreePBX::Modules()->moduleHasMethod($module, $method);

Get all modules that have method

Get an array of all BMO modules that have said method

/**
 * Get all modules that have said method
 * @param {string} $method The method name to look for
 */
FreePBX::Modules()->getModulesByMethod($method);

Check status

Check the status of said module to see if it is said state.

The 5 states are as follows:

MODULE_STATUS_NOTINSTALLED

MODULE_STATUS_DISABLED

MODULE_STATUS_ENABLED

MODULE_STATUS_NEEDUPGRADE

MODULE_STATUS_BROKEN

/**
 * Boolean return for checking a module's status
 * @param {string} $modname Module Raw Name
 * @param {constant} $status  Integer/Constant, status to compare to
 */
FreePBX::Modules()->checkStatus($modname,$status=MODULE_STATUS_ENABLED);

Get signature of Module

Get the signature status of Module

/**
 * Get Signature
 * @param string $modulename The raw module name
 * @param bool $cached     Get cached data or update the signature
 */
FreePBX::Modules()->getSignature($modulename,$cached=true);

Parse Module XML

Get the module XML of module as a simpleXML object

/**
 * Parse a modules XML from filesystem
 *
 * This function loads a modules xml file from the filesystem, and return
 * a simpleXML object.  This explicitly does NOT care about the active or
 * inactive state of the module. It also caches the object, so this can
 * be called multiple times without re-reading and re-generating the XML.
 *
 * @param (string) $modname Raw module name
 * @returns (object) SimpleXML Object.
 *
 * @throws Exception if module does not exist
 * @throws Exception if module xml file is not parseable
 */
FreePBX::Modules()->getXML($modname = false);
