Greetings,
I cannot get head around this problem: I'm developing local plugin that is gonna be run only by cron.
I have managed to get it installed, it shows up on Scheduled tasks list, all is fine and dandy. BUT!
What is the connection between \local\plugin_name\classes\tastk\worker.php and \local\plugin_name\lib.php?
My understanding is, that task worker should only trigger the function, that resides in lib.php or locallib.php, right? I've seen other plugins calling functions like enrol_get_plugin('ldap') or get_auth_plugin() or similiar. But there is no function that would work like local_get_plugin('plugin_name').
How do I create instance of plugin or access lib.php from task worker? All I want for now is to code in lib.php returns some string on the screen. Logic will follow later ofc.
My \local\plugin_name\classes\task\worker.php:
<?php
namespace local_plugin_name\task;
defined('MOODLE_INTERNAL') || die();
class worker extends \core\task\scheduled_task {
public function execute() {
$this->plugin_name_get_data();
}
public function get_name() {
return get_string('plugin_name_task', 'local_plugin_name');
}
}
My \local\plugin_name\lib.php:
<?php
defined('MOODLE_INTERNAL') || die;
function plugin_name_get_data(){
echo "echo Data gotten!";
mtrace("Mtrace here!");
}
return error:
Call to undefined method local_plugin_name\task\worker::plugin_name_get_data()
