# Class yii\base\Theme

Inheritance | yii\base\Theme » yii\base\Component » yii\base\BaseObject
Implements | yii\base\Configurable
Available since version | 2.0
Source Code | https://github.com/yiisoft/yii2/blob/master/framework/base/Theme.php

Theme represents an application theme.

When yii\base\View renders a view file, it will check the active theme to see if there is a themed version of the view file exists. If so, the themed version will be rendered instead.

A theme is a directory consisting of view files which are meant to replace their non-themed counterparts.

Theme uses $pathMap to achieve the view file replacement:

1. It first looks for a key in $pathMap that is a substring of the given view file path;
2. If such a key exists, the corresponding value will be used to replace the corresponding part in the view file path;
3. It will then check if the updated view file exists or not. If so, that file will be used to replace the original view file.
4. If Step 2 or 3 fails, the original view file will be used.

For example, if $pathMap is `['@app/views' => '@app/themes/basic']`, then the themed version for a view file `@app/views/site/index.php` will be `@app/themes/basic/site/index.php`.

It is possible to map a single path to multiple paths. For example,

    'pathMap' => [
        '@app/views' => [
            '@app/themes/christmas',
            '@app/themes/basic',
        ],
    ]

In this case, the themed version could be either `@app/themes/christmas/site/index.php` or `@app/themes/basic/site/index.php`. The former has precedence over the latter if both files exist.

To use a theme, you should configure the theme property of the "view" application component like the following:

    'view' => [
        'theme' => [
            'basePath' => '@app/themes/basic',
            'baseUrl' => '@web/themes/basic',
        ],
    ],

The above configuration specifies a theme located under the "themes/basic" directory of the Web folder that contains the entry script of the application. If your theme is designed to handle modules, you may configure the $pathMap property like described above.

For more details and usage information on Theme, see the guide article on theming.

## Property Details

Hide inherited properties

$basePath public property

The root path of this theme. All resources of this theme are located under this directory.

public string $basePath = null
$baseUrl public property

The base URL (without ending slash) for this theme. All resources of this theme are considered to be under this base URL.

public string $baseUrl = null
$pathMap public property

The mapping between view directories and their corresponding themed versions. This property is used by applyTo() when a view is trying to apply the theme. Path aliases can be used when specifying directories. If this property is empty or not set, a mapping yii\base\Application::$basePath to $basePath will be used.

public array|null $pathMap = null

## Method Details

Hide inherited methods

__call() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__call()

Calls the named method which is not a class method.

This method will check if any attached behavior has the named method and will execute it if available.

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when an unknown method is being invoked.

public mixed __call ( $name, $params )
$name | string | The method name
$params | array | Method parameters
return | mixed | The method return value
throws | yii\base\UnknownMethodException | when calling unknown method

Source code

                    public function __call($name, $params)
    {
        $this->ensureBehaviors();
        foreach ($this->_behaviors as $object) {
            if ($object->hasMethod($name)) {
                return call_user_func_array([$object, $name], $params);
            }
        }
        throw new UnknownMethodException('Calling unknown method: ' . get_class($this) . "::$name()");
    }

__clone() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__clone()

This method is called after the object is created by cloning an existing one.

It removes all behaviors because they are attached to the old object.

public void __clone ( )

Source code

                    public function __clone()
    {
        $this->_events = [];
        $this->_eventWildcards = [];
        $this->_behaviors = null;
    }

__construct() public method

Defined in: yii\base\BaseObject::__construct()

Constructor.

The default implementation does two things:

- Initializes the object with the given configuration `$config`.
- Call init().

If this method is overridden in a child class, it is recommended that

- the last parameter of the constructor is a configuration array, like `$config` here.
- call the parent implementation at the end of the constructor.

public void __construct ( $config = [] )
$config | array | Name-value pairs that will be used to initialize the object properties

Source code

                    public function __construct($config = [])
    {
        if (!empty($config)) {
            Yii::configure($this, $config);
        }
        $this->init();
    }

__get() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__get()

Returns the value of a component property.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

- a property defined by a getter: return the getter result
- a property of a behavior: return the behavior property value

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing `$value = $component->property;`.

See also __set().

public mixed __get ( $name )
$name | string | The property name
return | mixed | The property value or the value of a behavior's property
throws | yii\base\UnknownPropertyException | if the property is not defined
throws | yii\base\InvalidCallException | if the property is write-only.

Source code

                    public function __get($name)
    {
        $getter = 'get' . $name;
        if (method_exists($this, $getter)) {
            // read property, e.g. getName()
            return $this->$getter();
        }
        // behavior property
        $this->ensureBehaviors();
        foreach ($this->_behaviors as $behavior) {
            if ($behavior->canGetProperty($name)) {
                return $behavior->$name;
            }
        }
        if (method_exists($this, 'set' . $name)) {
            throw new InvalidCallException('Getting write-only property: ' . get_class($this) . '::' . $name);
        }
        throw new UnknownPropertyException('Getting unknown property: ' . get_class($this) . '::' . $name);
    }

__isset() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__isset()

Checks if a property is set, i.e. defined and not null.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

- a property defined by a setter: return whether the property is set
- a property of a behavior: return whether the property is set
- return `false` for non existing properties

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing `isset($component->property)`.

See also https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.isset.php.

public boolean __isset ( $name )
$name | string | The property name or the event name
return | boolean | Whether the named property is set

Source code

                    public function __isset($name)
    {
        $getter = 'get' . $name;
        if (method_exists($this, $getter)) {
            return $this->$getter() !== null;
        }
        // behavior property
        $this->ensureBehaviors();
        foreach ($this->_behaviors as $behavior) {
            if ($behavior->canGetProperty($name)) {
                return $behavior->$name !== null;
            }
        }
        return false;
    }

__set() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__set()

Sets the value of a component property.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

- a property defined by a setter: set the property value
- an event in the format of "on xyz": attach the handler to the event "xyz"
- a behavior in the format of "as xyz": attach the behavior named as "xyz"
- a property of a behavior: set the behavior property value

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing `$component->property = $value;`.

See also __get().

public void __set ( $name, $value )
$name | string | The property name or the event name
$value | mixed | The property value
throws | yii\base\UnknownPropertyException | if the property is not defined
throws | yii\base\InvalidCallException | if the property is read-only.

Source code

                    public function __set($name, $value)
    {
        $setter = 'set' . $name;
        if (method_exists($this, $setter)) {
            // set property
            $this->$setter($value);
            return;
        } elseif (strncmp($name, 'on ', 3) === 0) {
            // on event: attach event handler
            $this->on(trim(substr($name, 3)), $value);
            return;
        } elseif (strncmp($name, 'as ', 3) === 0) {
            // as behavior: attach behavior
            $name = trim(substr($name, 3));
            $this->attachBehavior($name, $value instanceof Behavior ? $value : Yii::createObject($value));
            return;
        }
        // behavior property
        $this->ensureBehaviors();
        foreach ($this->_behaviors as $behavior) {
            if ($behavior->canSetProperty($name)) {
                $behavior->$name = $value;
                return;
            }
        }

        }
        throw new UnknownPropertyException('Setting unknown property: ' . get_class($this) . '::' . $name);
    }

__unset() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::__unset()

Sets a component property to be null.

This method will check in the following order and act accordingly:

- a property defined by a setter: set the property value to be null
- a property of a behavior: set the property value to be null

Do not call this method directly as it is a PHP magic method that will be implicitly called when executing `unset($component->property)`.

See also https://www.php.net/manual/en/function.unset.php.

public void __unset ( $name )
$name | string | The property name
throws | yii\base\InvalidCallException | if the property is read only.

            $from = FileHelper::normalizePath(Yii::getAlias($from)) . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR;
            if (strpos($path, $from) === 0) {
                $n = strlen($from);
                foreach ((array) $tos as $to) {
                    $to = FileHelper::normalizePath(Yii::getAlias($to)) . DIRECTORY_SEPARATOR;

            }
        }
        return $path;
    }

attachBehavior() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::attachBehavior()

Attaches a behavior to this component.

This method will create the behavior object based on the given configuration. After that, the behavior object will be attached to this component by calling the yii\base\Behavior::attach() method.

See also detachBehavior().

public yii\base\Behavior attachBehavior ( $name, $behavior )
$name | string | The name of the behavior.

$behavior

string|array|yii\base\Behavior

The behavior configuration. This can be one of the following:

- a yii\base\Behavior object
- a string specifying the behavior class
- an object configuration array that will be passed to Yii::createObject() to create the behavior object.

return | yii\base\Behavior | The behavior object

Source code

                    public function attachBehavior($name, $behavior)
    {
        $this->ensureBehaviors();
        return $this->attachBehaviorInternal($name, $behavior);
    }

attachBehaviors() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::attachBehaviors()

Attaches a list of behaviors to the component.

Each behavior is indexed by its name and should be a yii\base\Behavior object, a string specifying the behavior class, or an configuration array for creating the behavior.

See also attachBehavior().

public void attachBehaviors ( $behaviors )
$behaviors | array | List of behaviors to be attached to the component

Source code

                    public function attachBehaviors($behaviors)
    {
        $this->ensureBehaviors();
        foreach ($behaviors as $name => $behavior) {
            $this->attachBehaviorInternal($name, $behavior);
        }
    }

behaviors() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::behaviors()

Returns a list of behaviors that this component should behave as.

Child classes may override this method to specify the behaviors they want to behave as.

The return value of this method should be an array of behavior objects or configurations indexed by behavior names. A behavior configuration can be either a string specifying the behavior class or an array of the following structure:

    'behaviorName' => [
        'class' => 'BehaviorClass',
        'property1' => 'value1',
        'property2' => 'value2',
    ]

Note that a behavior class must extend from yii\base\Behavior. Behaviors can be attached using a name or anonymously. When a name is used as the array key, using this name, the behavior can later be retrieved using getBehavior() or be detached using detachBehavior(). Anonymous behaviors can not be retrieved or detached.

Behaviors declared in this method will be attached to the component automatically (on demand).

public array behaviors ( )
return | array | The behavior configurations.

Source code

                    public function behaviors()
    {
        return [];
    }

canGetProperty() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::canGetProperty()

Returns a value indicating whether a property can be read.

A property can be read if:

- the class has a getter method associated with the specified name (in this case, property name is case-insensitive);
- the class has a member variable with the specified name (when `$checkVars` is true);
- an attached behavior has a readable property of the given name (when `$checkBehaviors` is true).

See also canSetProperty().

public boolean canGetProperty ( $name, $checkVars = true, $checkBehaviors = true )
$name | string | The property name
$checkVars | boolean | Whether to treat member variables as properties

                    public function canGetProperty($name, $checkVars = true, $checkBehaviors = true)
    {
        if (method_exists($this, 'get' . $name) || $checkVars && property_exists($this, $name)) {
            return true;
        } elseif ($checkBehaviors) {
            $this->ensureBehaviors();
            foreach ($this->_behaviors as $behavior) {
                if ($behavior->canGetProperty($name, $checkVars)) {
                    return true;
                }
            }
        }
        return false;
    }

canSetProperty() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::canSetProperty()

Returns a value indicating whether a property can be set.

A property can be written if:

- the class has a setter method associated with the specified name (in this case, property name is case-insensitive);
- the class has a member variable with the specified name (when `$checkVars` is true);
- an attached behavior has a writable property of the given name (when `$checkBehaviors` is true).

See also canGetProperty().

public boolean canSetProperty ( $name, $checkVars = true, $checkBehaviors = true )
$name | string | The property name
$checkVars | boolean | Whether to treat member variables as properties
$checkBehaviors | boolean | Whether to treat behaviors' properties as properties of this component
return | boolean | Whether the property can be written

            return true;
        } elseif ($checkBehaviors) {
            $this->ensureBehaviors();
            foreach ($this->_behaviors as $behavior) {
                if ($behavior->canSetProperty($name, $checkVars)) {
                    return true;

    }

on() public method

Defined in: yii\base\Component::on()

Attaches an event handler to an event.

The event handler must be a valid PHP callback. The following are some examples:

    function ($event) { ... }         // anonymous function
    [$object, 'handleClick']          // $object->handleClick()
    ['Page', 'handleClick']           // Page::handleClick()
    'handleClick'                     // global function handleClick()

The event handler must be defined with the following signature,

    function ($event)

where `$event` is an yii\base\Event object which includes parameters associated with the event.

Since 2.0.14 you can specify event name as a wildcard pattern:

    $component->on('event.group.*', function ($event) {
        Yii::trace($event->name . ' is triggered.');
    });

See also off().

public void on ( $name, $handler, $data = null, $append = true )
$name | string | The event name
$handler | callable | The event handler
$data | mixed | The data to be passed to the event handler when the event is triggered. When the event handler is invoked, this data can be accessed via yii\base\Event::$data.
$append | boolean | Whether to append new event handler to the end of the existing handler list. If false, the new handler will be inserted at the beginning of the existing handler list.

Source code

                    public function on($name, $handler, $data = null, $append = true)
    {
        $this->ensureBehaviors();
        if (strpos($name, '*') !== false) {
            if ($append || empty($this->_eventWildcards[$name])) {
                $this->_eventWildcards[$name][] = [$handler, $data];
            } else {
                array_unshift($this->_eventWildcards[$name], [$handler, $data]);
            }
            return;
        }
        if ($append || empty($this->_events[$name])) {
            $this->_events[$name][] = [$handler, $data];
        } else {
            array_unshift($this->_events[$name], [$handler, $data]);
