Create a jfullurl tpl plugin to get the absolute url

[mike]

In some cases like email templates, it's useful to use links with the full url including the domain name in order to get back on the website.

Instead of getting only "/index.php/module/controller/action" with jurl plugin, I would like to be able to retrieve "​http://mydomain.com/index.php/module/controller/action".

It would works like {jurl} but with minor changes:

Use cases:

1) if you want to locally set a domain name

{jfullurl 'module~controller:action', array('param1'=>'value1'), "mydomain.com"}

2) if you want to use the default domain, set domainName = "mydomain.com" in default.conf.ini.php

{jfullurl 'module~controller:action', array('param1'=>'value1')}

3) if you want to use the $_SERVER[SERVER_NAME] value

{jfullurl 'module~controller:action', array('param1'=>'value1')}

the first patch, try it!

I will review+ soon as the patch is ok for me. But i would like to discuss something before. Do jurlfull and jurl plugins have to be "html" plugins ?

If we want to display an url in a text email, we cannot make use of the plugins. What do you think about that jelixians ?

[laurentj]

ok for me.

@bballizlife : there is already a jurl plugin for text ;-). We could have this jurlfull for text too...

[bballizlife]

@laurentj : erf... i looked at the reference API before but i did not see the plugins. Too bad. Indeed they already exists so it's ok.

I suggest to add the jurlfull in text and xul (as jurl exists there too).

I can provide the patch with the text and xul version, but what about having it in the common directory ? Isn't it better ?

[bballizlife]

indeed, i don't see any drawbacks to have it only in "common". Maybe laurentj have some reason but if not this would be easier to maintain one version in one directory.

there is a little difference between text and html : in text, the url is not escaped (htmlspecialchars etc..). If you look at jurl plugins between text and html, you will see a difference in parameters. however, for xul, no difference with html

Maybe we can detect the response type ?! And not escape the string for text and it will be alright!

Am I right?

[laurentj]

not the response type but the type asked by jTpl. I think we have a property for that on the object $tpl given to the function, I don't remember.

[mike]

I will check that and give another patch as soon as possible!

Apparently we cannot have access to the property "$outputType" since it's in the jTplCompiler and not in the jTpl object... If you have any idea on how retrieve this value...
