Need help creating custom CodeDefinition

[pedjas]

Hi,

i want to creade BBCode which looks like this:

[insertimg imgid=22 style=left border=1 alt="alttext"]

Point is, instead of image url, i need image id so I can buildimage name (finally, I should read image info from database) and provide proper HTML markup to show that image.

I made more or less everything that I needed except, i cannot use this BBCode without closing tag [/insertimg]. i want to get rid of that closing tag. I read all I could and searched for answer but could not get it.

Basicaly, now I have to put tag in this form: [insertimg imgid=22 style=left border=1 alt="alttext"][/insertimg] but i want it to be simpler, this form: [insertimg imgid=22 style=left border=1 alt="alttext"]

Here is my code:

class bbcInsertImg extends \JBBCode\CodeDefinition {

  public function __construct()  {
    $this->parseContent = false;
    $this->useOption = true;
    $this->setTagName('insertimg');
    $this->nestLimit = -1;
  }

  public function asHtml(\JBBCode\ElementNode $pElement) {

  $m_attributes = $pElement->getAttribute();

    if (isset ($m_attributes['imgid'])) {
      $img_url = $m_attributes['imgid'] . '.jpg';
    } else {
      $img_url = '';
    }

    $bodyHtml = '<img src="' . $img_url . '"';

    $bodyHtml .= $this->AttribToHTML($pElement, 'style');
    $bodyHtml .= $this->AttribToHTML($pElement, 'border');
    $bodyHtml .= $this->AttribToHTML($pElement, 'alt');    

    $bodyHtml .= '>';    

    return $bodyHtml;

  }

  private function AttribToHTML($pElement, $pAttrib, $pDefaultValue = '') {

    $m_attributes = $pElement->getAttribute();

    if (isset ($m_attributes[$pAttrib])) {
      $m_result = ' ' . $pAttrib . '="' . $m_attributes[$pAttrib] . '"';
    } else {
      if (strlen ($pDefaultValue) > 0) {
        $m_result = ' ' . $pAttrib . '="' . $pDefaultValue . '"';      
      } else {
        $m_result = '';
      }
    }
    return $m_result;
  }

}

I am still struggling with this issue. Can anybody give me some hint?

@pedjas As far as I know, jBBCode does not have support for unary tags yet. @jbowens Probably this one should be labeled as #bug, shouldn't it?

[shmax]

Until support for unary tags is added, why not use the positive qualities of the closed-tag format to your benefit?

[includeimg=22 style=left border=1]This is my alt text![/includeimg]
