function hook_field_views_data in Drupal 8

Same name and namespace in other branches

1. 9 core/modules/views/views.api.php \hook_field_views_data()
2. 10 core/modules/views/views.api.php \hook_field_views_data()

Override the default Views data for a Field API field.

The field module's implementation of hook_views_data() invokes this for each field storage, in the module that defines the field type. It is not invoked in other modules.

If no hook implementation exists, hook_views_data() falls back to views_field_default_views_data().

Parameters

\Drupal\field\FieldStorageConfigInterface $field_storage: The field storage config entity.

Return value

array An array of views data, in the same format as the return value of hook_views_data().
