Requirements
============

[](#requirements)

The following requirements exists for using BC Kernel Module Override extension:

### eZ Publish version

[](#ez-publish-version)

- Make sure you use eZ Publish version 4.x (required) or higher.
- Designed and tested with eZ Publish Community Project 2014.11

### PHP version

[](#php-version)

- Make sure you have PHP 5.x or higher.

Features
========

[](#features)

This solution provides the following features:

- Kernel Module Class Override Class: eZModule

### Dependencies

[](#dependencies)

- This solution depends on eZ Publish Legacy and kernel class overrides enabled in config.php

### Kernel class override

[](#kernel-class-override)

This solution overrides the following kernel class:

- PHP Class : `eZModule` - Found by default at: `lib/ezutils/classes/ezmodule.php`

This solution provides the following kernel class override:

- PHP Class : `eZModule` - Found by at: `extension/bckernelmoduleoverride/classes/kerneloverride/v2014.11.07/lib/ezutils/classes/ezmodule.php`

**Note**: This solution requires only one legacy kernel class override of a class that is very stable and not subject to much change (if at all) per release (which is important for maintainability). The class has not been modified or [needed a bugfix since early 2015](https://github.com/ezsystems/ezpublish-legacy/blob/master/lib/ezutils/classes/ezmodule.php).

Installation
============

[](#installation)

### Bundle Installation via Composer

[](#bundle-installation-via-composer)

Run the following command from your project root to install the bundle:

```
bash$ composer require brookinsconsulting/bckernelmoduleoverride dev-master;

```

### Extension Activation

[](#extension-activation)

Optional. Activate this extension by adding the following to your `settings/override/site.ini.append.php`:

```
[ExtensionSettings]
#
ActiveExtensions[]=bckernelmoduleoverride

```

Kernel class override extensions are **not** activated via ini settings. Normal site.ini extension activation settings are not required to use this extension and it's solution.

### Enable eZ Publish Kernel Overrides

[](#enable-ez-publish-kernel-overrides)

Kernel class overrides are only able to be used if you add the following to your eZ Publish Legacy config.php configuration file.

```
cp -va config.php-RECOMMENDED config.php;
# Edit config.php to set 'EZP_AUTOLOAD_ALLOW_KERNEL_OVERRIDE' to true. It should look like this:
define( 'EZP_AUTOLOAD_ALLOW_KERNEL_OVERRIDE', true );

```

### Regenerate kernel class override autoloads

[](#regenerate-kernel-class-override-autoloads)

Regenerate kernel class override autoloads (Required).

```
php ./bin/php/ezpgenerateautoloads.php --kernel-override;

```

### Clear the caches

[](#clear-the-caches)

Optional. Clear eZ Publish Platform / eZ Publish Legacy caches (Required).

```
php ./bin/php/ezcache.php --clear-all;

```

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

The solution is configured to work virtually by default once properly installed.

Note: If you have any other extension modules which the module name is the same of a default module the extension module will now override the default module by default. This could be a concern so check your modules before deploying to production / live.

With this kernel class override installed and enabled you can override any default kernel module and kernel module views.

This is helpful and useful for overriding default modules like the user/login module view or other module views like the information collation system or any other kernel module you desire.
