public static function FieldItemInterface::calculateDependencies

public static FieldItemInterface::calculateDependencies(FieldDefinitionInterface $field_definition)

Calculates dependencies for field items.

Dependencies are saved in the field configuration entity and are used to determine configuration synchronization order. For example, if the field type's default value is a content entity, this method should return an array of dependencies listing the content entities.

Parameters

\Drupal\Core\Field\FieldDefinitionInterface $field_definition: The field definition.

Return value

array An array of dependencies grouped by type (config, content, module, theme). For example:

  array(
    'config' => array('user.role.anonymous', 'user.role.authenticated'),
    'content' => array('node:article:f0a189e6-55fb-47fb-8005-5bef81c44d6d'),
    'module' => array('node', 'user'),
    'theme' => array('seven'),
  );
