Hi Martin,
First there are a couple ways to set the skin already in BoltWire
1) Create your own custom skin setter: myBOLTchooseSkin()
2) More easily you can do simply set $BOLTconfig['skin'] = 'json';
3) By a slight tweak in the code we could make it even easier. If I change
engine.php line 150 from
$BOLTskin = BOLTconfig('skin');
to
if ($BOLTskin == '') $BOLTskin = BOLTconfig('skin');
Then you can set skin in config.php or any plug for that matter by simple
setting $BOLTskin;
Of course you have to write some kind of algorith for the skin selection.
For example lets say you wanted to turn on a mobile skin, you could use
this:
## TURN ON MOBILE SKIN WHERE NEEDED $BOLTmobilePat =
'/(iphone|symbian|android|windows ce|iemobile|blackberry|pre)/i'; $mobile =
preg_match($BOLTmobilePat, $_SERVER['HTTP_USER_AGENT']); if ($mobile > 0)
$BOLTskin = 'mobile';
In your example you would develop a switch around $pageArray[0] or
something.
As for your Json solution--I'd suggest the following hook (new code).
First in library.php (line 505) add this rather than a customized case for
json:
default : if (function_exists('myBOLTfuncOutput')) $value =
myBOLTfuncOutput($value, $args['output']);
Then in your config.php you could add a script like this:
function myBOLTfuncOutput($value, $type) {
if ($type == 'json') return '[ "' . str_replace("\n", '","', $value) . '"
]';
return $value;
}
This gives a person pretty simple and maximum access to function output
options with minimum change to the core.
I've made both the changes suggested above to the core for the next release.
Cheers,
Dan
