global field extends

[bnomei]

just noticed this feature. awesome! 🙌

but it seems to be half broken. crawling a tree of pages, getting fields types. once a plugin field definition (prevnext in my case) is encountered the detection fails. breaking all following field type detects.

I intend to keep maintaining this plugin. I'm not sure what you mean exactly. Would you mind share your blueprint and how you call it? Then I can easier fix it I think.

i can not share my current project but what i did was this...

• three different blueprints. hirarchy: folder > category > page
• each blueprint has prevnext (global def), snippet-field and logic-field (no global def)
• on my json export api i step down the tree (nested foreach children()) and use b::blueprint($child->template(), 'fields/'.$fieldname.'/type'); to check if i want to export that field.
• that works fine until at somepoint (which i did not manage to pinpoint) it breaks. most probably its global field defs and/or the cache.
• but setting the cache manually to $child->uri().$fieldname which should be unique for each field did not fix it. so i assumed its the global fields def unrolling.
• maybe it has to do with prevnext global field def being from a plugin and after parsing that the path is broken. why? because after parsing that every return value of b::blueprint is prevnext.
