FlexPress shortcode component
=============================

[](#flexpress-shortcode-component)

Install with Pimple
-------------------

[](#install-with-pimple)

The Shortcode component uses two classes:

- AbstractShortcode, which you extend to create a Shortcode.
- ShortcodeHelper, which hooks into everything for you and registers the shortcodes.

Lets create a pimple config for both of these

```
$pimple["documentLinkShortcode"] = function () {
  return new DocumentLink();
};

$pimple['ShortcodeHelper'] = function ($c) {
    return new ShortcodeHelper($c['objectStorage'], array(
        $c["documentLinkShortcode"]
    ));
};

```

- Note the dependency $c\['objectStorage'\] is a SPLObjectStorage

Creating a concreate shortcode class
------------------------------------

[](#creating-a-concreate-shortcode-class)

Create a concreate class that implements the AbstractShortcode class and implements the getName() and getCallback() methods.

```
class DocumentLink extends AbstractShortcode {

    public function getName()
    {
      return "document_link";
    }

    public function getCallback()
    {
      $link = func_get_arg(0);
      return 'Download document';
    }

}

```

### Public Methods

[](#public-methods)

- getName() - returns the name of the shortcode that will be used in the editor.
- getCallback() - returns the markup of the shortcode.

ShortcodeHelper usage
---------------------

[](#shortcodehelper-usage)

Once you have setup the pimple config you are use the ShortcodeHelper like this

```
$helper = $pimple['ShortcodeHelper'];
$helper->registerShortcodes();

```

That's it, the helper will then add all the needed hooks and register all the shortcodes you have provided it.

### Public methods

[](#public-methods-1)

- registerShortcodes() - Registers the shortcodes provided.
