Installation

composer require ignitekit/wp-option-builder

or without Composer as follows:

require_once '/path/to/wp-option-builder/autoload.php';

How to use

Assuming that you already loaded the library you need instance of the Framework class:

use IgniteKit\WP\OptionBuilder\Framework;
$framework = new Framework();

Then you can register option pages and metaboxes as follows:

Option pages

$settings = array(
	'id'    => 'custom_options',
	'pages' => array(
		array(
			'id'              => 'test_page',
			'parent_slug'     => 'themes.php',
			'page_title'      => __( 'Theme Options', 'your-text-domain' ),
			'menu_title'      => __( 'Theme Options', 'your-text-domain' ),
			'capability'      => 'edit_theme_options',
			'menu_slug'       => 'demo-theme-options',
			'icon_url'        => null,
			'position'        => null,
			'updated_message' => __( 'Options updated!', 'your-text-domain' ),
			'reset_message'   => __( 'Options reset!', 'your-text-domain' ),
			'button_text'     => __( 'Save changes', 'your-text-domain' ),
			'show_buttons'    => true,
			'screen_icon'     => 'options-general',
			'contextual_help' => array(
				'content' => array( array(
						'id'      => 'option_types_help',
						'title'   => __( 'Option Types', 'theme-text-domain' ),
						'content' => '<p>' . __( 'Help content goes here!', 'theme-text-domain' ) . '</p>',
					),
				),
				'sidebar' => '<p>' . __( 'Sidebar content goes here!', 'theme-text-domain' ) . '</p>',
			),
			'sections' => array( array(
				'id'    => 'option_types',
				'title' => __( 'Option Types', 'theme-text-domain' ),
			    ),
			),
			'settings'        => array(
				array(
					'id'           => 'demo_background',
					'label'        => __( 'Background', 'theme-text-domain' ),
					'desc'         => __( 'Some description goes here...', 'theme-text-domain' ),
					'std'          => '',
					'type'         => 'background',
					'section'      => 'option_types',
					'rows'         => '',
					'post_type'    => '',
					'taxonomy'     => '',
					'min_max_step' => '',
					'class'        => '',
					'condition'    => '',
					'operator'     => 'and',
				),
				array(
					'id'           => 'demo_border',
					'label'        => __( 'Border', 'theme-text-domain' ),
					'desc'         => __( 'Some description goes here...', 'theme-text-domain' ),
					'std'          => '',
					'type'         => 'border',
					'section'      => 'option_types',
					'rows'         => '',
					'post_type'    => '',
					'taxonomy'     => '',
					'min_max_step' => '',
					'class'        => '',
					'condition'    => '',
					'operator'     => 'and',
				),
				array(
					'id'           => 'demo_box_shadow',
					'label'        => __( 'Box Shadow', 'theme-text-domain' ),
					'desc'         => __( 'Some description goes here...', 'theme-text-domain' ),
					'std'          => '',
					'type'         => 'box-shadow',
					'section'      => 'option_types',
					'rows'         => '',
					'post_type'    => '',
					'taxonomy'     => '',
					'min_max_step' => '',
					'class'        => '',
					'condition'    => '',
					'operator'     => 'and',
				),
			)
		)
	)
);

$framework->register_settings( array( $settings ) ); // Note: $settings one group option pages, you can add multiple groups of pages.

Retrieving options

To retrieve options for the above settings, locate the settings key, in our case custom_options.

// Make settings instance
$settings = get_option('custom_options');

// To access demo_background setting
$demo_bg = isset($settings['demo_background']) ? $settings['demo_background'] : ''; // or simply $settings['demo_background'].

Metaboxes

$framework->register_metabox( array(
	'id'       => 'demo_meta_box',
	'title'    => __( 'Demo Meta Box', 'theme-text-domain' ),
	'desc'     => '',
	'pages'    => array( 'post' ),
	'context'  => 'normal',
	'priority' => 'high',
	'fields'   => array(
		array(
			'label' => __( 'Conditions', 'theme-text-domain' ),
			'id'    => 'demo_conditions',
			'type'  => 'tab',
		),
		array(
			'label' => __( 'Show Gallery', 'theme-text-domain' ),
			'id'    => 'demo_show_gallery',
			'type'  => 'on-off',
			'desc'  => sprintf( __( 'Shows the Gallery when set to %s.', 'theme-text-domain' ), '<code>on</code>' ),
			'std'   => 'off',
		),
		array(
			'label'     => '',
			'id'        => 'demo_textblock',
			'type'      => 'textblock',
			'desc'      => __( 'Congratulations, you created a gallery!', 'theme-text-domain' ),
			'operator'  => 'and',
			'condition' => 'demo_show_gallery:is(on),demo_gallery:not()',
		),
		array(
			'label'     => __( 'Gallery', 'theme-text-domain' ),
			'id'        => 'demo_gallery',
			'type'      => 'gallery',
			'desc'      => sprintf( __( 'This is a Gallery option type. It displays when %s.', 'theme-text-domain' ), '<code>demo_show_gallery:is(on)</code>' ),
			'condition' => 'demo_show_gallery:is(on)',
		),
		array(
			'label' => __( 'More Options', 'theme-text-domain' ),
			'id'    => 'demo_more_options',
			'type'  => 'tab',
		),
		array(
			'label' => __( 'Text', 'theme-text-domain' ),
			'id'    => 'demo_text',
			'type'  => 'text',
			'desc'  => __( 'This is a demo Text field.', 'theme-text-domain' ),
		),
		array(
			'label' => __( 'Textarea', 'theme-text-domain' ),
			'id'    => 'demo_textarea',
			'type'  => 'textarea',
			'desc'  => __( 'This is a demo Textarea field.', 'theme-text-domain' ),
		),
	),
) );

Retrieving metabox settings

To retrieve the metabox settings, use get_post_meta() function as follows.

$value = get_post_meta($post_id, 'demo_text', true);

If you are using 'save_mode' => 'array' in the metabox settings, then all the settings will be stored into one meta row as serialized array. This appraoch is good if you want better performance. The data will be accessible with one mysql query instead of separate for each field.

To retrieve with this kind of save_mode, call the get_post_meta() function on the metabox id as follows:

$data = get_post_meta($post_id, 'demo_meta_box', true);
$value = $data['demo_text'];
