public function ExtensionDiscovery::scan in Drupal 8

Same name and namespace in other branches

9 core/lib/Drupal/Core/Extension/ExtensionDiscovery.php \Drupal\Core\Extension\ExtensionDiscovery::scan()

Discovers available extensions of a given type.

Finds all extensions (modules, themes, etc) that exist on the site. It searches in several locations. For instance, to discover all available modules:

$listing = new ExtensionDiscovery(\Drupal::root());
$modules = $listing
  ->scan('module');

The following directories will be searched (in the order stated):

the core directory; i.e., /core
the installation profile directory; e.g., /core/profiles/standard
the legacy site-wide directory; i.e., /sites/all
the site-wide directory; i.e., /
the site-specific directory; e.g., /sites/example.com

To also find test modules, add

$settings['extension_discovery_scan_tests'] = TRUE;

to your settings.php.

The information is returned in an associative array, keyed by the extension name (without .info.yml extension). Extensions found later in the search will take precedence over extensions found earlier - unless they are not compatible with the current version of Drupal core.

Parameters

string $type: The extension type to search for. One of 'profile', 'module', 'theme', or 'theme_engine'.

bool $include_tests: (optional) Whether to explicitly include or exclude test extensions. By default, test extensions are only discovered when in a test environment.

Return value

\Drupal\Core\Extension\Extension[] An associative array of Extension objects, keyed by extension name.

  // Therefore, add the site directory of the parent site to the search paths,
  // so that contained extensions are still discovered.
