Core Library Extension Hooks

core_boot()

Parameter	Type
Returns	Void

Run tasks on every ExpressionEngine request.

How it's called:

ee()->extensions->call('core_boot');
if (ee()->extensions->end_script === TRUE) return;

NOTE: Note: This hook fires on every ExpressionEngine request, so be mindful of the speed and resource usage of your code here. If you need to run code based on the type of request, the REQ constant can be checked to determine the type of request. It will either be PAGE for front-end requests, CP for control panel requests, or ACTION for module action requests (ACT= URLs). e.g.:

if (REQ != 'CP')
{
  // Do work only on control panel requests
  return;
}

core_cp_boot()

Parameter	Type
Returns	Void

Run tasks on every Control Panel request.

How it's called:

ee()->extensions->call('core_cp_boot');
if (ee()->extensions->end_script === TRUE) return;

Runs for every Control Panel request, after making sure the user is fully authorized (including MFA) and ee()->cp library is loaded.

core_template_route($uri_string)

Parameter	Type	Description
$uri_string	String	Current URI string
Returns	Array	Array containing the name of the template group and template (see below)

Reassign the template group and template loaded for parsing.

How it's called:

$edata = ee()->extensions->call('core_template_route', ee()->uri->uri_string);
if (is_array($edata) && count($edata) == 2)
{
    list($template_group, $template) = $edata;
}

Example of array to return:

array(
    'template_group', // Template group name
    'template'        // Template name
);
