Plesk File Manager is a part of user interface that allows
administrator, reseller, or customer to manage domain’s files and
directories and provides a set of useful features, for example, a visual
HTML editor and a file permissions manager. Starting from Plesk 11.5,
you can create extensions that add functionality to Plesk File Manager.
To add an item to the context menu of the File Manager:
-
Create the file
/plib/library/FileManager/Action.phpin your
extension directory. -
Create the class Modules_MyModule_FileManager_Action that extends
the
pm_FileManager_Action
class in this file. MyModule here is your extension’s ID.The following methods are used:
-
An example of such class in provided below:
class Modules_CodeEditor_FileManager_Action extends pm_FileManager_Action
{
/**
* Retrieve title for action
*/
public function getTitle()
{
pm_Context::init('code-editor');
return $this->lmsg('actionTitle');
}
/**
* Retrieve name for action
* by default name is camelCase module ID
*/
public function getName()
{
return parent::getName();
}
/**
* Retrieve URL for action
*/
public function getHref()
{
pm_Context::init('code-editor');
$params = array(
'currentDir=' . urlencode($this->_item['currentDir']),
'file=' . urlencode($this->_item['name']),
);
return pm_Context::getBaseUrl() . '?' . implode('&', $params);
}
/**
* Checks if action is available for a file
*/
public function isActive()
{
if ($this->_item['isDirectory']) {
return false;
}
return true;
}
/**
* Checks if action is default for a file
*/
public function isDefault()
{
return false;
}
}
The variable $this->_item contains an array with the information
about the file or a directory on which the menu is shown:
array (
'name' => 'hello.txt',
'modificationTimestamp' => '1380276799',
'modificationDate' => 'Sep 27, 2013 05:13 PM',
'size' => '8192',
'formatedSize' => '8.0 KB',
'user' => 'user_ifvbjsgcdk',
'group' => 'psacln',
'filePerms' => 'rw- r-- r-- ',
'isDirectory' => false,
'icon' => '/theme/icons/16/plesk/file-txt.png',
'isReadonly' => false,
'currentDir' => '/httpdocs',
)
As a result of adding such an extension, a new item will be available in
the File Manager context menu:
