2. 3.x api/src/includes/RealisticDummyContentFieldModifier.php \Drupal\realistic_dummy_content_api\includes\RealisticDummyContentFieldModifier::addModifier()

Adds a modifier to a list of attribute modifiers.

To abstract away the difference between fields and properties, we call them all attributes. Modifiers will modify attributes depending on what they are. For example, a user picture is modified differently than an image in an article. This is managed through an extensible class hierarchy. Modules, including this one, can implement hook_realistic_dummy_content_attribute_manipular_alter() to determine which class should modify which attribute (field or property).

By default, we will consider that properties are text properties and that fields' [value] property should be modified. This is not the case, however for user pictures (which should load a file), body fields (which contain a text format), and others. These are all defined in subclasses and can be extended by module developers.

Parameters

array &$modifiers: Existing array of subclasses of RealisticDummyContentAttribute, to which new modifiers will be added.

string $type: Either 'property' or 'field'.

string $name: Name of the property or field, for example 'body', 'picture', 'title', 'field_image'.
