=head1 NAME

Callback.pod - Movable Type Callbacks

=head1 DESCRIPTION

The callback system in Movable Type is easy to use and is invoked at key areas
throughout the application. This document is a reference of all available
callbacks in Movable Type itself.

It's important to note that this documentation (as with all API documentation)
applies to the B<Movable Type platform> which includes both Movable Type and 
Movable Type Enterprise.  In the rare occurance that something refers 
exclusively to one or the other, it will be explicitly noted.

=head1 OVERVIEW

What follows is a listing of each available MT callback, grouped by
system component. The callback is immediately followed by a I<signature>
which describes how to write your callback subroutine to accept the
parameters the callback provides.

For example, if the signature reads like this:

    callback($cb, $param1, $param2)

Then your callback subroutine should be declared as:

    sub my_callback {
        my ($cb, $param1, $param2) = @_;

    }

If the callback signature looks like this:

    callback($cb, %info)

Then your callback subroutine should be:

    sub my_callback {
        my ($cb, %info) = @_;

    }

=head1 ERROR HANDLING

The first argument to any callback routine is a I<MT::Callback>
object. You can use this object to return errors to MT.

To signal an error, just use the error() method:

    sub my_callback {
        my ($cb, $arg2, $arg3) = @_;

        ....

        if (some_condition) {
            return $cb->error("The foofiddle was invalid.");
        } 
        ...
    }

In addition to the error() method, the I<MT::Callback> package also has
metadata related to the plugin that registered the callback:

    my $plugin = $cb->plugin;

It's possible that this method will return undef if the callback
was registered without a plugin.

=head1 Naming Conventions

MT callbacks are typically in one of these forms:

=over 4

=item * CallbackName

This is a simple high-level callback. Typically an application (C<TakeDown>)
or process-oriented callback (such as C<BuildFileFilter>).

=item * callback_name

Lower-cased callbacks signify a lower-level callback. These are common in
the I<MT::Object> callbacks (such as C<pre_save>, C<post_save>, etc.)

=item * Package::CallbackName

Callbacks that are invoked with a package name prefix are used to distinguish
a callback that may be used for many classes. The transformer callbacks are
examples of this. These callbacks can also be hooked into with an wildcard
syntax:

    MT->add_callback('*::CallbackName', ...)

or even just:

    MT->add_callback('CallbackName', ...)

So the namespace is there when you need your callback to be for a specific
package, or can be registered without one when you want the callback to
run regardless of the package.

=item * Package::CallbackName.type

=item * CallbackName.type

This is a syntax for running callbacks with a parameter or identifier to
distinguish it. This is also used to the hooks to be more selective. Some
of the CMS application callbacks use this syntax:

    MT->add_callback('CMSDeletePermissionFilter.entry', ...)

The transformer callbacks use this syntax to let you target a specific
application template:

    MT->add_callback('AppTemplateSource.list_blog', ...)

Some of these also allow you to register without the suffix:

    MT->add_callback('AppTemplateSource', ...)

And some also provide the package name syntax for scoping to a particular
application/object type:

    MT->add_callback('MT::App::CMS::AppTemplateSource.header', ...)

This last example targets use of the header application template specifically
for the CMS application (and only the CMS application).

=back

=head1 Object Callbacks

The Object callbacks are those that are tied to I<MT::Object> and its
descendants.  This includes classes such as I<MT::Entry>, I<MT::Blog>, etc.

=over 4

=item * <package>::pre_save

    callback($cb, $obj, $original)

Callback issued prior to saving C<$obj> to the database. C<$original> is
the instance that was invoked to be saved. If C<$obj-E<gt>id> is unset,
then it is a new object.

=item * <package>::post_save

    callback($cb, $obj, $original)

Callback issued after to saving C<$obj> to the database. C<$original> is
the instance that was invoked to be saved.

=item * <package>::pre_update

    callback($cb, $obj, $original)

Callback issued prior to saving an existing C<$obj> to the database.
C<$original> is the instance that was invoked to be saved.

=item * <package>::post_update

    callback($cb, $obj, $original)

Callback issued after saving an existing C<$obj> to the database.
C<$original> is the instance that was invoked to be saved.

=item * <package>::pre_insert

    callback($cb, $obj, $original)

Callback issued prior to saving a new C<$obj> to the database. C<$original> is
the instance that was invoked to be saved.

=item * <package>::post_insert

    callback($cb, $obj, $original)

Callback issued after to saving a new C<$obj> to the database. C<$original> is
the instance that was invoked to be saved.

=item * <package>::pre_load

    callback($cb, \@params)

C<\@params> is an array containing the arguments that were passed to
the C<load> method.

=item * <package>::post_load

    callback($cb, \@params, $obj)

C<\@params> is an array containing the arguments that were passed to
the C<load> method. The object returned by the load method is provided
through the C<$obj> parameter.

=item * <package>::pre_remove

    callback($cb, $obj)

=item * <package>::post_remove

    callback($cb, $obj)

=item * <package>::pre_remove_all

    callback($cb, $class)

=item * <package>::post_remove_all

    callback($cb, $class)

=item * <package>::pre_direct_remove

    callback($cb, $class, $terms, $args)

=item * <package>::post_clone

    callback($cb, %param)

This callback in particular is unique to the I<MT::Blog> package. It is
run when the user does a blog cloning operation that makes a physical copy
of the weblog and it's children objects. If a plugin has data that is
associated with a blog and you wish to copy that data when the blog is
cloned, you should hook into this callback to capture this event.

When the blog is cloned, all of the children records are cloned along
with it: entries, categories, templates, etc. As such, it may be important
for you to know the original IDs of the cloned records, in addition to
their new IDs. So the callback also provides this information, for
the cloned entries, categories, trackback and template objects.

Parameter data passed to the callback include:

=over 4

=item * OldObject

The I<MT::Blog> object that was been cloned. This is the original blog
object, not the newly created one.

=item * NewObject

The I<MT::Blog> object that was created from the original.

=item * EntryMap

A hashref containing keys of the original entry IDs and values of
the newly created entry IDs.

=item * CategoryMap

A hashref containing keys of the original category IDs and values of
the newly created category IDs.

=item * TrackbackMap

A hashref containing keys of the original trackback IDs and values of
the newly created trackback IDs.

=item * TemplateMap

A hashref containing keys of the original template IDs and values of
the newly created template IDs.

=item * Callback

A coderef that may be used to message the user as to the progress of
the cloning operation. Call this with a message and a unique identifier.
Each progress update with that identifier will refresh the same
status message displayed. Refer to the I<MT::Blog::clone_with_children>
subroutine for further examples of using the callback.

    $callback->("Now cloning foozles...", "foozles");

=back

=item * <package>::post_create_default_templates

    callback($cb, $blog, $tmpl_list)

This callback in particular is also unique to the I<MT::Blog> package.
It is run when the user creates a new blog, or when the user refreshes
all templates for existing blog to have it clean start again. 
If a plugin has something to do with template sets and with when user 
uses the particular set, you should hook into this callback to capture 
this event.

C<$blog> argument carries the blog user created.  C<$tmpl_list> carries
the list of template data associated to the blog.

=back

=head1 Application Callbacks

=head2 MT::App

These callbacks are common to all MT applications that descend from the
I<MT::App> package.

=over 4

=item * <package>::pre_run

    callback($cb, $app)

Called at the beginning of the request, prior to invoking the mode
handler (and prior to determining the application mode, so it is
possible for the callback to alter the mode at this point).

=item * <package>::post_run

    callback($cb, $app)

Called after running the mode handler for the request. This callback is
run prior to the response being sent to the client.

=item * TakeDown

    callback($cb, $app)

Executed as the application is finishing the service of a request. By
this time the response has been sent to the client.

=back

In addition to the above callbacks, I<MT::App> also provides a set of
"Transformer" callbacks that are documented in their own section,
L<Transformer Callbacks>.

=head2 MT::AtomServer and MT::XMLRPCServer

=over 4

=item * APIPreSave.entry

    callback($cb, $app, $entry, $original)

This callback is invoked prior to saving the entry object.
If a new entry is being saved, C<$entry-E<gt>id> will not be set.

=item * APIPostSave.entry

    callback($cb, $app, $entry, $original)

This callback is invoked after to saving the entry object.
If a new entry has being saved, C<$original-E<gt>id> will not be set.

=item * APIUploadFile

    callback($cb, %params)

This callback is invoked for each file the user uploads to the weblog.
This callback is similar to the CMSUploadFile callback found in
I<MT::App::CMS>. Currently, this callback is only used in I<MT::XMLRPCServer>,
since the I<MT::AtomServer> app does not handle file uploads.

The named parameters passed for this callback are:

=over 4

=item * File

The full physical file path of the uploaded file.

=item * Url

The full URL to the file that has been uploaded.

=item * Type

For this callback, this value is currently always 'file'.

=item * Blog

The I<MT::Blog> object associated with the newly uploaded file.

=back

=back

=head2 MT::App::CMS

The following callbacks are unique to the I<MT::App::CMS> package. Many of
these callbacks have a C<E<lt>typeE<gt>> suffix which is one of the
registered datatypes for the CMS. The available types are:

=over 4

=item author           => MT::Author

=item comment          => MT::Comment

=item entry            => MT::Entry

=item template         => MT::Template

=item blog             => MT::Blog

=item notification     => MT::Notification

=item templatemap      => MT::TemplateMap

=item category         => MT::Category

=item banlist          => MT::IPBanList

=item ping             => MT::TBPing

=item ping_cat         => MT::TBPing

=item group            => MT::Group

=item role             => MT::Role

=item association      => MT::Association

=back

=over 4

=item * CMSViewPermissionFilter.<type>

Calling convention is:

    callback($cb, $app, $id, $obj_promise)

Where C<$id> is the ID of an object, if it already exists, or
C<undef> if the user will be creating a new object of this type.

C<$obj_promise> is a promise for the object itself. You can use
C<$obj_promise-E<gt>force> to get ahold of the object, if you need it, but
typically you won't need it. (See I<MT::Promise>)

Return a false value to abort the operation and display a message to
the user that s/he doesn't have permission to view the object.

=item * CMSSavePermissionFilter.<type>

Calling convention is:

    callback($cb, $app, $id)

Where C<$id> is the ID of the object, if it already exists, or
C<undef> if it is a new object with this request.

Note that at this point, the object may not yet exist. The request can
be understood through the query parameters of the app, accessible
through C<$app-E<gt>param()>. A C<CMSSavePermissionFilter> callback
should be "safe"--it should not modify the database.

Return a false value to abort the operation and display a message to
the user that s/he doesn't have permission to modify the object. The
method is not called if the acting user is a superuser.

=item * CMSDeletePermissionFilter.<type>

    callback($cb, $app, $object)

=item * CMSSaveFilter.<type>

This callback gives you the chance to "decline" for reasons other than lack of permissions.

The routine is called as follows:

    callback($cb, $app)

Returning a false value will decline the request. It is advisibable to
return an error via the C<$cb> object in order to signal to the user
what went wrong.

Note that the new object has not been constructed yet. The operation
can be understood by examining the C<$app> object's query parameters
via C<$app-E<gt>param()>

A C<CMSSaveFilter> callback should be "safe"--it should not modify the
database.

=item * CMSPreSave.<type>

    callback($cb, $app, $object, $original)

C<$object> and C<$original> hold the object which is about to be saved,
and the object as it was when this request began, respectively. This
allows the callback to determine what kind of changes are being
attempted in the user's request. If the request is to create a new
object, C<$original> will be a valid object reference, but the object
will be "blank": it will be just what is returned by the C<new> method
on that class.

=item * CMSPostSave.<type>

    callback($cb, $app, $object, $original)

C<$object> and C<$original> hold the object which is about to be saved,
and the object as it was when this request began, respectively. When
the callback routine is called, the new object as C<$object> has already
been committed to the database. This is a convenient time to trigger
follow-up actions, such as notification and static-page rebuilds.

=item * CMSPostDelete.<type>

    callback($cb, $app, $object)

C<$object> holds the object that has just been removed from the database.
This callback is useful when removing data that is associated with
the object being removed.

=item * CMSUploadFile

    callback($cb, %params)

This callback is invoked for each file the user uploads to the weblog.
It is called for each file, regardless of type. If the user uploads an
image, both the C<CMSUploadFile> and C<CMSUploadImage> callbacks are invoked.

The parameters passed in the C<%params> hash include:

=over 4

=item * File

The full file path of the file that has been saved into the weblog.

=item * Url

The URL of the file that has been saved into the weblog.

=item * Size

The length of the file in bytes.

=item * Type

Either 'image', 'file' or 'thumbnail'.

=item * Blog

The I<MT::Blog> object the uploaded file is associated with.

=back

=item * CMSUploadImage

    callback($cb, %params)

This callback is invoked for each uploaded image. In the case the user
creates a thumbnail for their uploaded image, this callback will be
invoked twice-- once for the uploaded original image and a second time
for the thumbnail that was generated for it.

The parameters passed in the C<%params> hash include:

=over 4

=item * File

The full path and filename for the uploaded file.

=item * Url

The full URL for the uploaded file.

=item * Size

The length of the uploaded image in bytes.

=item * Type

Either "image" or "thumbnail" (for generated thumbnails).

=item * Height

The height of the image in pixels (available if I<Image::Size> module
is present).

=item * Width

The width of the image in pixels (available if I<Image::Size> module
is present).

=item * ImageType

The image identifier as reported by the I<Image::Size> module. Typically,
'GIF', 'JPG' or 'PNG'.

=item * Blog

The I<MT::Blog> object of the weblog the image is associated with.

=back

=item * HandleJunk

    callback($cb, $app, $object)

This callback is invoked when a user intentionally marks a given comment
or TrackBack ping as junk. The C<$object> can be either a I<MT::Comment>
or I<MT::TBPing> object.

=item * HandleNotJunk

    callback($cb, $app, $object)

This callback is invoked when a user intentionally marks a given comment
or TrackBack ping as non-junk. The C<$object> can be either a I<MT::Comment>
or I<MT::TBPing> object.

=item * RebuildOptions

    callback($cb, $app, \@options)

The RebuildOptions callback provides control over an array of additional
custom rebuild options that are displayed in MT's rebuild window. The array
is populated with hashrefs, each containing:

=over 4

=item code

The code to execute when running the custom rebuild option.

=item label

The label to display in the list of rebuild options.

=item key

An identifier unique to this option (optional, will derive from the label
if unavailable).

=back

    MT->add_callback('RebuildOptions', 5, undef, \&add_rebuild_options);
    sub add_rebuild_options {
        my ($cb, $app, $options) = @_;
        push @$options, {
            code => \&rebuild_by_author,
            label => "Rebuild My Entries",
            key => "rebuild_by_author",
        }
    }

=back

=head2 MT::App::Comments

This application handles receiving all comments posted to the
Movable Type installation.

=over 4

=item * CommentThrottleFilter

    callback($cb, $app, $entry)

Called as soon as a new comment has been received. The callback must
return a boolean value. If the return value is false, the incoming
comment data will be discarded and the app will output an error page
about throttling. A CommentThrottleFilter callback has the following
signature:

    sub comment_throttle_filter {
        my ($cb, $app, $entry) = @_;
        ...
        $boolean; # 1 to accept, 0 to reject
    }

C<$app> is the I<MT::App::Comments> object, whose interface is documented
in I<MT::App::Comments>, and C<$entry> is the entry on which the
comment is to be placed.

Note that no comment object is passed, because it has not yet been
built. As such, this callback can be used to tell the application to
exit early from a comment attempt, before much processing takes place.

When more than one CommentThrottleFilter is installed, the data is
discarded unless all callbacks return true.

=item * CommentFilter

    callback($callback, $app, $comment)

Called once the comment object has been constructed, but before saving
it. If any CommentFilter callback returns false, the comment will not
be saved. The callback has the following signature:

    sub comment_filter {
        my ($cb, $app, $comment) = @_;
        ...
        $boolean; # 1 to accept, 0 to reject
    }

=back

=head2 MT::App::Trackback

This application handles receiving all TrackBack pings sent to the
Movable Type installation.

=over 4

=item * TBPingThrottleFilter

    callback($cb, $app, $trackback)

This callback is issued early on upon receiving a TrackBack ping and it
allows the callback code to return a boolean as to whether the request
should be accepted or rejected. So if the callback returns 0, it signals
a reject for the ping. Returning 1 will accept it for further processing.

    sub trackback_throttle_filter {
        my ($cb, $app, $trackback) = @_;
        ...
        $boolean; # 1 to accept, 0 to reject
    }

=item * TBPingFilter

    callback($cb, $app, $ping)

Called once the TrackBack ping object has been constructed, but before
saving it. If any TBPingFilter callback returns false, the ping will
not be saved. The callback has the following signature:

    sub trackback_filter {
        my ($cb, $app, $ping) = @_;
        ...
        $boolean; # 1 to accept, 0 to reject
    }

=back

=head2 MT::App::ActivityFeeds

The Activity Feeds application handles the generation of various system
activity feeds, based on the contents of the system activity log. The
application uses callbacks to dispatch the creation of the feed. The
callbacks that are used include:

=over 4

=item * ActivityFeed

=item * ActivityFeed.system

=item * ActivityFeed.comment

=item * ActivityFeed.ping

=item * ActivityFeed.entry

=item * ActivityFeed.debug

=item * ActivityFeed.blog

All ActivityFeed callbacks have the same callback signature:

    callback($cb, $app, $view, $feed)

The C<$view> parameter is one of 'system', 'comment', 'ping', 'entry', 'blog',
'debug', or whatever is given using the 'view' parameter to the activity
feed script.

The C<$feed> parameter is a scalar reference to a string-- the contents
of the generated feed. Upon return, this value is printed out. The content
should be an Atom-based feed.

=back

=head1 API Callbacks

=head2 Publishing

The Movable Type publishing callbacks are invoked from the
I<MT::WeblogPublisher> module. These callbacks are used to allow manipulation
of the publishing process.

=over 4

=item * BuildFileFilter

This filter is called when Movable Type wants to rebuild a file, but
before doing so. This gives plugins the chance to determine whether a
file should actually be rebuild in particular situations.

A BuildFileFilter callback routine is called as follows:

    sub build_file_filter {
        my ($cb, %args) = @_;
        ...
        return $boolean;
    }

As with other callback funcions, the first parameter is an
I<MT::Callback> object. This can be used by the callback to
propagate an error message to the surrounding context.

The C<%args> parameters identify the page to be built. See
I<MT::FileInfo> for more information on how a page is determined by
these parameters. Elements in C<%args> are as follows:

=over 4

=item * C<Context>

Holds the template context that has been constructed for building (see
I<MT::Template::Context>).

=item * C<ArchiveType> 

The archive type of the file, usually one of C<'Index'>,
C<'Individual'>, C<'Category'>, C<'Daily'>, C<'Monthly'>, or
C<'Weekly'>.

=item * C<TemplateMap>

An I<MT::TemplateMap> object; this singles out which template is being
built, and the filesystem path of the file to be written.

=item * C<Blog>

The I<MT::Blog> object representing the blog whose pages are being
rebuilt.

=item * C<Entry>

In the case of an individual archive page, this points to the
I<MT::Entry> object whose page is being rebuilt. In the case of an
archive page other than an individual page, this parameter is not
necessarily undefined. It is best to rely on the C<$at> parameter to
determine whether a single entry is on deck to be built.

=item * C<PeriodStart> 

In the case of a date-based archive page, this is a timestamp at the
beginning of the period from which entries will be included on this
page, in Movable Type's standard 14-digit "timestamp" format. For
example, if the page is a Daily archive for April 17, 1796, this value
would be 17960417000000. If the page were a Monthly archive for March,
2003, C<$start> would be 20030301000000. Again, this parameter may be
defined even when the page on deck is not a date-based archive page.

=item * C<Category>

In the case of a Category archive, this parameter identifies the
category which will be built on the page.

=item * C<FileInfo>

If defined, an L<MT::FileInfo> object which contains information about the
file. See L<MT::FileInfo> for more information about what a I<MT::FileInfo>
contains. Chief amongst all the members of I<MT::FileInfo>, for these
purposes, will be the C<virtual> member. This is a boolean value which will be
false if a page was actually created on disk for this "page," and false if no
page was created (because the corresponding template is set to be
built dynamically).

It is possible for the FileInfo parameter to be undefined, namely if the blog has not been configured to publish anything dynamically, or if the
installation is using a data driver that does not support dynamic publishing.

=back

=item * BuildPage

BuildPage callbacks are invoked just after a page has been built, but
before the content has been written to the file system.

    sub build_page {
        my ($cb, %args) = @_;
    }

The parameters given are include those sent to the BuildFileFilter callback.
In addition, the following parameters are also given:

=over 4

=item * C<Content>

This is a scalar reference to the content that will eventually be
published.

=item * C<BuildResult> / (or C<RawContent>, deprecated)

This is a scalar reference to the content originally produced by building
the page. This value is provided mainly for reference; modifications to it
will be ignored.

=back

=item * BuildFile

BuildFile callbacks are invoked just after a file has been built.

    sub build_file {
        my ($cb, %args) = @_;
    }

Parameters in %args are as with BuildPage.

=back

=head2 Transformer Callbacks

These callbacks are available for any MT application that descends from
the I<MT::App> class. These callbacks 

=over 4

=item * <package>::AppTemplateSource

=item * <package>::AppTemplateSource.<filename>

    callback($cb, $app, \$tmpl_str)

Executed after loading the HTML::Template file.  The E<lt>packageE<gt> portion
is the full package name of the application running. For example,

    MT::App::CMS::AppTemplateSource.menu

Is the full callback name for loading the menu.tmpl file under the
I<MT::App::CMS> application. The "MT::App::CMS::AppTemplateSource" callback is
also invoked for all templates loading by the CMS.  Finally, you can also hook
into:

    *::AppTemplateSource

as a wildcard callback name to capture any C<HTML::Template> files that are 
loaded regardless of application.

=item * <package>::AppTemplateParam

=item * <package>::AppTemplateParam.<filename>

    callback($cb, $app, \%param, $tmpl_obj)

This callback is invoked in conjunction with the MT::App-E<gt>build_page
method. The $param argument is a hashref of I<HTML::Template> parameter
data that will eventually be passed to the template to produce the page.

=item * <package>::AppTemplateOutput

=item * <package>::AppTemplateOutput.<filename>

    callback($cb, $app, \$tmpl_str, \%param, $tmpl_obj)

This callback is invoked in conjunction with the MT::App-E<gt>build_page
method. The C<$tmpl_str> parameter is a string reference for the page that
was built by the MT::App-E<gt>build_page method. Since it is a reference,
it can be modified by the callback. The C<$param> parameter is a hash reference to the parameter data that was given to build the page. The C<$tmpl>
parameter is the I<HTML::Template> object used to generate the page.

=back

=head2 Default Templates

When a new weblog is created, Movable Type uses the I<MT::DefaultTemplates>
module to retrieve the set of default templates to be installed. It also
invokes a callback that provides plugins an opportunity to alter the set
of default templates (either to amend, or to filter them).

=over 4

=item * DefaultTemplateFilter

    callback($cb, \@templates)

This callback is invoked prior to returning the list of default templates.
This provides plugins an opportunity to adjust the set of default templates,
by amending it, supplementing it, etc., using C<@templates> array reference
passed to the callback. The contents of the array are hash references,
each containing the following keys:

=over 4

=item * type

The type of template. This should be one of the following values:

=over 4

=item * C<index>

An index template.
