Purpose
Perform heavy / infrequent actions in a controlled manner.
Usage
Use the A7\Seeder\add_seed
function to register the seed.
\A7\Seeder\add_seed( [ 'name' => 'User Roles', 'description' => 'Build user roles', 'callback' => 'Dev\user_roles', ] );
This registers the seed with the callback of Dev\user_roles
. Create a function with that name (in the appropriate namespace) and this will be the function that runs when you initiate the seed.
You can also just create a closure right there:
\A7\Seeder\add_seed( [ 'name' => 'User Roles', 'description' => 'Build user roles', 'callback' => function() { // .. do some logic .. echo 'Status of logic'; }, ] );
namespace Dev; function user_roles() { // .. do some logic .. echo 'Status of the logic...'; }
Go to Tools -> Seeder and click the corresponding seed button to initialize the callback that you registered.
This could be anything such as pre-filling content, auto-creating terms, updating the database in a certain manner, talking to or updating an API, etc.
Anything output during the seed callback will get output in an admin notice.
