function votingapi_recalculate_results in Voting API 6

Same name and namespace in other branches

1. 5 votingapi.module \votingapi_recalculate_results()
2. 6.2 votingapi.module \votingapi_recalculate_results()
3. 7.3 votingapi.module \votingapi_recalculate_results()
4. 7.2 votingapi.module \votingapi_recalculate_results()

Loads all votes for a given piece of content, then calculates and caches the aggregate vote results. This is only intended for modules that have assumed responsibility for the full voting cycle: the votingapi_set_vote() function recalculates automatically.

Parameters

$content_type: A string identifying the type of content being rated. Node, comment, aggregator item, etc.

$content_id: The key ID of the content being rated.

Return value

An array of the resulting votingapi_cache records, structured thusly: $value = $results[$ag][$value_type][$function]

2 calls to votingapi_recalculate_results()

votingapi_cron in ./votingapi.module

Implementation of hook_cron. Allows db-intensive recalculations to put off until cron-time.

votingapi_set_vote in ./votingapi.module

Cast a vote on a particular piece of content. If a vote already exists, its value is changed. In most cases, this is the function that should be used by external modules.

./votingapi.module, line 343
