Function __global->get_downloads_tree

Definitions

sources/downloads.php

  • Get a list of maps containing all the downloads, and path information, under the specified category - and those beneath it, recursively.
  • Visibility: public
  • Is abstract?: No
  • Is static?: No
  • Is final?: No
  • Returns: array

Parameters

Name Type Passed by reference? Variadic? Default Set Range Description
$submitter ?MEMBER No No Null N/A N/A Only show images/videos submitted by this member (null: no filter)
$category_id ?AUTO_LINK No No Null N/A N/A The category being at the root of our recursion (null: true root)
$breadcrumbs ?string No No Null N/A N/A The breadcrumbs up to this point in the recursion (null: blank, as we are starting the recursion)
$title ?ID_TEXT No No Null N/A N/A The name of the $category_id we are currently going through (null: look it up). This is here for efficiency reasons, as finding children IDs to recurse to also reveals the child's title
$shun ?integer No No Null N/A N/A The number of recursive levels to search (null: all)
$levels ?AUTO_LINK No No Null N/A N/A Download we do not want to show (null: none to not show)
$use_compound_list boolean No No False N/A N/A Whether to get a list of child categories (not just direct ones, recursively), instead of just IDs
$editable_filter boolean No No False N/A N/A Whether to only show for what may be edited by the current member
$tar_filter boolean No No False N/A N/A Whether to only show entries that are TAR files (addons)

Returns

  • A list of maps for all categories. Each map entry containing the fields 'id' (category ID) and 'breadcrumbs' (to the category, including the categories own title), and more. Or if $use_compound_list, the tree structure built with pairs containing the compound list in addition to the child branches
  • Type: array
  • Set: N/A
  • Range: N/A
