Defining attributes
From LimeSurvey Manual
Defining attributes for question types.
Attributes for question types are all configurable, non default, aspects of a question. A good example of an attribute is question text.
Question attributes are defined using an array with the name of the attribute as a key. An attribute definition supports several keys.
- type - string: The data type of the attribute. Supported types are ('html', 'string', 'boolean', 'select')
- localized - boolean: Whether this attribute should be configurable per language.
- advanced - boolean: Whether this attribute should be shown in the default or advanced tab.
- label - string: The label of the attribute in English (this is localized by the admin interface).
- options - array(string-string): Contains the options for an attribute of type 'select'.
- default - mixed: Contains the default value for the attribute.
Example:
protected $attributes = array(
'question' => array(
'type' => 'html',
'localized' => true,
'label' => 'Question text:'
),
'help' => array(
'type' => 'html',
'localized' => true,
'label' => 'Help text:'
),
'mandatory' => array(
'type' => 'boolean',
'label' => 'Mandatory:'
),
'display' => array(
'label' => 'Display using:',
'type' => 'select',
'options' => array(
'radio' => 'Radio buttons',
'dropdown' => 'Dropdown list'
),
'localized' => false,
'advanced' => false,
'default' => 'dropdown'
)
);
