function _trigger_normalize_node_context in Drupal 7
Same name and namespace in other branches
- 6 modules/trigger/trigger.module \_trigger_normalize_node_context()
Loads associated objects for node triggers.
When an action is called in a context that does not match its type, the object that the action expects must be retrieved. For example, when an action that works on users is called during a node hook implementation, the user object is not available since the node hook call doesn't pass it. So here we load the object the action expects.
Parameters
$type: The type of action that is about to be called.
$node: The node that was passed via the node hook.
Return value
The object expected by the action that is about to be called.

    // Load the user object of the node's author.
