- /**
- * @defgroup views_handlers About Views handlers
- * @{
- * In Views, a handler is an object that is part of the view and is part of the
- * query building flow.
- *
- * Handlers are objects; much of the time, the base handlers will work, but
- * often you'll need to override the handler to achieve something meaningful.
- * One typical handler override will be views_handler_filter_operator_in which
- * allows you to have a filter select from a list of options; you'll need to
- * override this to provide your list.
- *
- * Handlers have two distinct code flows; the UI flow and the view building
- * flow.
- *
- * For the query flow:
- * - handler->construct()
- * - Create the initial handler; at this time it is not yet attached to a
- * view. It is here that you can set basic defaults if needed, but there
- * will be no knowledge of the environment yet.
- * - handler->set_definition()
- * - Set the data from hook_views_data() relevant to the handler.
- * - handler->init()
- * - Attach the handler to a view, and usually provides the options from the
- * display.
- * - handler->pre_query()
- * - Run prior to the query() stage to do early processing.
- * - handler->query()
- * - Do the bulk of the work this handler needs to do to add itself to the
- * query.
- *
- * Fields, being the only handlers concerned with output, also have an extended
- * piece of the flow:
- *
- * - handler->pre_render(&$values)
- * - Called prior to the actual rendering, this allows handlers to query for
- * extra data; the entire resultset is available here, and this is where
- * items that have "multiple values" per record can do their extra query for
- * all of the records available. There are several examples of this at work
- * in the code, see for example views_handler_field_user_roles.
- * - handler->render()
- * - This does the actual work of rendering the field.
- *
- * Most handlers are just extensions of existing classes with a few tweaks that
- * are specific to the field in question. For example,
- * views_handler_filter_in_operator provides a simple mechanism to set a
- * multiple-value list for setting filter values. Below,
- * views_handler_filter_node_type overrides the list options, but inherits
- * everything else.
- *
- * @code
- * class views_handler_filter_node_type extends views_handler_filter_in_operator {
- * function get_value_options() {
- * if (!isset($this->value_options)) {
- * $this->value_title = t('Node type');
- * $types = node_get_types();
- * foreach ($types as $type => $info) {
- * $options[$type] = $info->name;
- * }
- * $this->value_options = $options;
- * }
- * }
- * }
- * @endcode
- *
- * Handlers are stored in their own files and loaded on demand. Like all other
- * module files, they must first be registered through the module's info file.
- * For example:
- *
- * @code
- * name = Example module
- * description = "Gives an example of a module."
- * core = 7.x
- * files[] = example.module
- * files[] = example.install
- *
- * ; Views handlers
- * files[] = includes/views/handlers/example_handler_argument_string.inc
- * @endcode
- *
- * The best place to learn more about handlers and how they work is to explore
- * @link views_handlers Views' handlers @endlink and use existing handlers as a
- * guide and a model. Understanding how views_handler and its child classes work
- * is handy but you can do a lot just following these models. You can also
- * explore the views module directory, particularly node.views.inc.
- *
- * Please note that while all handler names in views are prefixed with views_,
- * you should use your own module's name to prefix your handler names in order
- * to ensure namespace safety. Note that the basic pattern for handler naming
- * goes like this:
- *
- * [module]_handler_[type]_[tablename]_[fieldname].
- *
- * Sometimes table and fieldname are not appropriate, but something that
- * resembles what the table/field would be can be used.

- /**
- * @defgroup views_plugins About Views plugins
- *
- * In Views, a plugin is a bit like a handler, but plugins are not directly
- * responsible for building the query. Instead, they are objects that are used
- * to display the view or make other modifications.
- *
- * There are several types of plugins in Views:
- * - Display: Display plugins are responsible for controlling *where* a view
- * lives; that is, how they are being exposed to other parts of Drupal. Page
- * and block are the most common displays, as well as the ubiquitous 'master'
- * (or 'default') display.
- * - Style: Style plugins control how a view is displayed. For the most part
- * they are object wrappers around theme templates. Styles could for example
- * be HTML lists or tables.
- * - Row style: Row styles handle each individual record from the main view
- * table. The two included by default render the entire entity (nodes only),
- * or selected fields.
- * - Argument default: Argument default plugins allow pluggable ways of
- * providing default values for contextual filters (previously 'arguments').
- * This is useful for blocks and other display types lacking a natural
- * argument input. Examples are plugins to extract node and user IDs from the
- * URL.
- * - Argument validator: Validator plugins can ensure arguments are valid, and
- * even do transformations on the arguments. They can also provide replacement
- * patterns for the view title. For example, the 'content' validator
- * verifies verifies that the argument value corresponds to a node, loads
- * that node and provides the node title as a replacement pattern.
- * - Access: Access plugins are responsible for controlling access to the view.
- * Views includes plugins for checking user roles and individual permissions.
- * - Query: Query plugins generate and execute a query, so they can be seen as
- * a data backend. The default implementation is using SQL. There are
- * contributed modules reading data from other sources, see for example the
- * Views XML Backend module.
- * - Cache: Cache plugins control the storage and loading of caches. Currently
- * they can do both result and render caching, but maybe one day cache the
- * generated query.
- * - Pager plugins: Pager plugins take care of everything regarding pagers.
- * From getting and setting the total amount of items to render the pager and
- * setting the global pager arrays.
- * - Exposed form plugins: Exposed form plugins are responsible for building,
- * rendering and controlling exposed forms. They can expose new parts of the
- * view to the user and more.
- * - Localization plugins: Localization plugins take care how the view options
- * are translated. There are example implementations for t(), 'no
- * translation' and i18n.
- * - Display extenders: Display extender plugins allow scaling of views options
- * horizontally. This means that you can add options and do stuff on all
- * views displays. One theoretical example is metatags for views.
- *
- * Plugins are registered by implementing hook_views_plugins() in your
- * modulename.views.inc file and returning an array of data.
- * For examples please look at views_views_plugins() in
- * views/includes/plugins.inc as it has examples for all of them.
- *
- * Similar to handlers, make sure that you add your plugin files to the
- * module.info file.
- *
- * The array defining plugins will look something like this:
- * @code
- * return array(
- * 'display' => array(
- * // ... list of display plugins,
- * ),
- * 'style' => array(
- * // ... list of style plugins,
- * ),
- * 'row' => array(
- * // ... list of row style plugins,
- * ),
- * 'argument default' => array(
- * // ... list of argument default plugins,
- * ),
- * 'argument validator' => array(
- * // ... list of argument validator plugins,
- * ),
- * 'access' => array(
- * // ... list of access plugins,
- * ),
- * 'query' => array(
- * // ... list of query plugins,
- * ),,
- * 'cache' => array(
- * // ... list of cache plugins,
- * ),,
- * 'pager' => array(
- * // ... list of pager plugins,
- * ),,
- * 'exposed_form' => array(
- * // ... list of exposed_form plugins,
- * ),,
- * 'localization' => array(
- * // ... list of localization plugins,
- * ),
- * 'display_extender' => array(
- * // ... list of display extender plugins,
- * ),
- * );
- * @endcode
- *
- * Each plugin will be registered with an identifier for the plugin, plus a
- * fairly lengthy list of items that can define how and where the plugin is
- * used. Here is an example of a row style plugin from Views core:
- * @code
- * 'node' => array(
- * 'title' => t('Node'),
- * 'help' => t('Display the node with standard node view.'),
- * 'handler' => 'views_plugin_row_node_view',
- * 'path' => drupal_get_path('module', 'views') . '/modules/node', // not necessary for most modules
- * 'theme' => 'views_view_row_node',
- * 'base' => array('node'), // only works with 'node' as base.
- * 'uses options' => TRUE,
- * 'type' => 'normal',
- * ),
- * @endcode
- *
- * Of particular interest is the *path* directive, which works a little
- * differently from handler registration; each plugin must define its own path,
- * rather than relying on a global info for the paths. For example:
- * @code
- * 'feed' => array(
- * 'title' => t('Feed'),
- * 'help' => t('Display the view as a feed, such as an RSS feed.'),
- * 'handler' => 'views_plugin_display_feed',
- * 'uses hook menu' => TRUE,
- * 'use ajax' => FALSE,
- * 'use pager' => FALSE,
- * 'accept attachments' => FALSE,
- * 'admin' => t('Feed'),
- * 'help topic' => 'display-feed',
- * ),
- * @endcode
- *
- * Please be sure to prefix your plugin identifiers with your module name to
- * ensure namespace safety; after all, two different modules could try to
- * implement the 'grid2' plugin, and that would cause one plugin to completely
- * fail.

- * - Used by all plugin types:
- * - title (required): The name of the plugin, as shown in Views. Wrap in
- * t().
- * - handler (required): The name of the file containing the class
- * describing the handler, which must also be the name of the handler's
- * class.
- * - path: Path to the handler. Only required if the handler is not placed
- * in the same folder as the .module file or in the subfolder 'views'.
- * - parent: The name of the plugin this plugin extends. Since Drupal 7 this
- * is no longer required, but may still be useful from a code readability
- * perspective.
- * - no ui: Set to TRUE to denote that the plugin doesn't appear to be
- * selectable in the ui, though on the api side they still exists.
- * - uses options: Set to TRUE to denote that the plugin has an additional
- * options form.
- * - help: A short help text, wrapped in t() used as description on the plugin settings form.
- * - help topic: The name of an entry by advanced help for the plugin.
- * - theme: The name of a theme suggestion to use for the display.
- * - js: An array with paths to js files that should be included for the
- * display. Note that the path should be relative Drupal root, not module
- * root.
- * - type: Each plugin can specify a type parameter to group certain
- * plugins together. For example all row plugins related to feeds are
- * grouped together, because a rss style plugin only accepts feed row
- * plugins.
- *
- * - Used by display plugins:
- * - admin: The administrative name of the display, as displayed on the
- * Views overview and also used as default name for new displays. Wrap in
- * t().
- * - no remove: Set to TRUE to make the display non-removable. (Basically
- * only used for the master/default display.)
- * - use ajax: Set to TRUE to allow AJAX loads in the display. If it's
- * disabled there will be no ajax option in the ui.
- * - use pager: Set to TRUE to allow paging in the display.
- * - use more: Set to TRUE to allow the 'use more' setting in the display.
- * - accept attachments: Set to TRUE to allow attachment displays to be
- * attached to this display type.
- * - contextual links locations: An array with places where contextual links
- * should be added. Can for example be 'page' or 'block'. If you don't
- * specify it there will be contextual links around the rendered view. If
- * this is not set or regions have been specified, views will display an
- * option to 'hide contextual links'. Use an empty array if you do not want
- * this.
- * - uses hook menu: Set to TRUE to have the display included by
- * views_menu_alter(). views_menu_alter executes then execute_hook_menu
- * on the display object.
- * - uses hook block: Set to TRUE to have the display included by
- * views_block_info().
- * - theme: The name of a theme suggestion to use for the display.
- * - js: An array with paths to js files that should be included for the
- * display. Note that the path should be relative Drupal root, not module
- * root.
- *
- * - Used by style plugins:
- * - uses row plugin: Set to TRUE to allow row plugins for this style.
- * - uses row class: Set to TRUE to allow the CSS class settings for rows.
- * - uses fields: Set to TRUE to have the style plugin accept field
- * handlers.
- * - uses grouping: Set to TRUE to allow the grouping settings for rows.
- * - even empty: May have the value 'even empty' to tell Views that the style
- * should be rendered even if there are no results.
- *
- * - Used by row plugins:
- * - uses fields: Set to TRUE to have the row plugin accept field handlers.

- *
- * <!--post-FIELD-NID-->
- *
- * And then in the post render, create an array with the text that should
- * go there:
- *
- * strtr($output, array('<!--post-FIELD-1-->' => 'output for FIELD of nid 1');
- *
- * All of the cached result data will be available in $view->result, as well,
- * so all ids used in the query should be discoverable.
- *
- * This hook can be utilized by themes.
