function hook_block_build_alter in Drupal 10

Same name and namespace in other branches
  1. 8 core/modules/block/block.api.php \hook_block_build_alter()
  2. 9 core/modules/block/block.api.php \hook_block_build_alter()

Alter the result of \Drupal\Core\Block\BlockBase::build().

Unlike hook_block_view_alter(), this hook is called very early, before the block is being assembled. Therefore, it is early enough to alter the cacheability metadata (change #cache), or to explicitly placeholder the block (set #create_placeholder).

In addition to hook_block_build_alter(), which is called for all blocks, there is hook_block_build_BASE_BLOCK_ID_alter(), which can be used to target a specific block or set of similar blocks.

Parameters

array &$build: A renderable array of data, only containing #cache.

\Drupal\Core\Block\BlockPluginInterface $block: The block plugin instance.
