Concrete Helpers

Permalink 1 user found helpful April 06, 2016 at 7:08 PM

Where are the helpers defined? I know of them only by seeing them in others code. Such as
$al = Loader::helper('concrete/asset_library'); or
$ps = Loader::helper('form/page_selector');

I would like to know what all the possible loaders are, and where they are defined at.

How do I know what functions are available on each loader? For example, with the page_selector, there is the selectPage function. But I'm currently trying to find out what kind of functions are available in the asset_library helper.

I noticed there is legacy API documentation on this. Does that documentation apply to 5.7 as well?

So according to this:
http://documentation.concrete5.org/developers/background/migrating-...

Helpers are actually depricated, and we should use Core::make instead.

Hi ob7dev,

Here is a list of concrete5 "Core::make()" services. I believe this is all of them. The list was generated by the ExchangeCore Developer Tools add-on.
