SitePreviewer

Learn how to build custom site previewer plugins.

SitePreviewer plugins are responsible for rendering the preview for an entity type.

Implement a @SitePreviewer plugin to provide your own custom previewer.

Example

A plugin that renders a link to preview.

<?php


namespace Drupal\next\Plugin\Next\SitePreviewer;


use Drupal\Core\Entity\EntityInterface;
use Drupal\next\Plugin\SitePreviewerBase;


/**
 * Provides a link to the preview page.
 *
 * @SitePreviewer(
 *  id = "link",
 *  label = "Link to preview",
 *  description = "Displays a link to the preview page."
 * )
 */
class Link extends SitePreviewerBase {


  /**
   * {@inheritdoc}
   */
  public function render(EntityInterface $entity, array $sites) {
    $build = [];


    foreach ($sites as $site) {
      $build[] = [
        '#type' => 'link',
        '#title' => $this->t('Open preview'),
        '#url' => $site->getPreviewUrlForEntity($entity),
      ];
    }


    return $build;
  }


}

Configuration

SitePreviewer plugins can provide their own configuration. See \Drupal\next\Plugin\ConfigurableSitePreviewerInterface.
