node_view_gui

Summary

Outputs the view template for a node.

Usage

{node_view_gui content_node=node [ view=view_mode  [ parameter=value [ ... ] ] ]}

Parameters

Name	Type	Description	Required
content_node	object	The target node (as an ezcontentobjecttreenode object).	Yes.
view	string	The view mode that should be used.	Yes.
parameter	any	Parameter(s) that will be passed to the included template.	No.

Description

This function makes it possible to display a node using its view (or override) template. The target node must be specified as an "ezcontentobjecttreenode" object using the "content_node" parameter. The "view" parameter specifies which view mode that should be used. All other parameters (of any type) will be passed on and thus become available as template variables in the view template.

Examples

Example 1

{def $my_node=fetch( 'content', 'node', hash( 'node_id', 96 ) )}
{node_view_gui view='example' content_node=$my_node}

In this example, node number 96 is fetched and stored in $my_node. The "node_view_gui" function is used to display the target node using the "example" view mode. If there are no override rules for the specified view mode, the system will search for "example.tpl" in the "templates/node/view/" directory of the current design. If the requested template file is not found, eZ Publish will continue searching for it in the fallback designs and the standard design.
