    In this chapter, we're going to take a look at creating area handlers for Views.
  • 0:09
    Area handlers function a lot like field handlers.
  • 0:12
    The difference, though, is that these are going to create, essentially, fields
  • 0:16
    that can be used inside of the empty text or footer text
  • 0:19
    or the header text of our view.
  • 0:21
    In this area handler,
  • 0:23
    we're going to show how we can use Views to calculate a sum.
  • 0:27
    It's going to loop through all of the results that are returned by our view,
  • 0:30
    and then in the footer of the view we'll be able to add our area handler field

    Nesse capítulo, iremos dar uma olhada na criação de handlers de área para Views.
  • 0:09
    Handlers de área funcionam de maneira semelhante a handlers.
  • 0:12
    Porém, a diferença, é que esses irão, essencialmente, criar fields
  • 0:16
    que podem ser usados dentro do texto vazio ou texto do footer
  • 0:19
    ou texto do header da nossa view.
  • 0:21
    Nesse handler de área,
  • 0:23
    iremos mostrar como podemos usar Views para calcular uma soma.
  • 0:27
    Isso irá iterar todos os resultados que são retornados pela nossa view,
  • 0:30
    e depois no footer da view poderemos adicionar nosso field do handler de área

Area handlers are used in the header, footer and empty text areas when creating a View. In this lesson, we’ll walk through creating our own area handler that can be placed in the footer to provide a summary of all the rows in our View.
