Provides the default help_topic manager.
Modules and themes can provide help topics in .html.twig files called provider.name_of_topic.html.twig inside the module or theme sub-directory help_topics. The provider is validated to be the extension that provides the help topic.
The Twig file must contain YAML front matter with a key named 'label'. It can also contain keys named 'top_level' and 'related'. For example:
---
label: 'Configuring error responses, including 403/404 pages'
# Related help topics in an array.
related:
- core.config_basic
- core.maintenance
# If the value is true then the help topic will appear on admin/help.
top_level: true
---
In addition, modules wishing to add plugins can define them in a module_name.help_topics.yml file, with the plugin ID as the heading for each entry, and these properties:
- id: The plugin ID.
- class: The name of your plugin class, implementing \Drupal\help_topics\HelpTopicPluginInterface.
- top_level: TRUE if the topic is top-level.
- related: Array of IDs of topics this one is related to.
- Additional properties that your plugin class needs, such as 'label'.
You can also provide an entry that designates a plugin deriver class in your help_topics.yml file, with a heading giving a prefix ID for your group of derived plugins, and a 'deriver' property giving the name of a class implementing \Drupal\Component\Plugin\Derivative\DeriverInterface. Example:
mymodule_prefix:
deriver:
'Drupal\\mymodule\\Plugin\\Deriver\\HelpTopicDeriver';
@internal Help Topics is currently experimental and should only be leveraged by experimental modules and development releases of contributed modules. See https://www.drupal.org/core/experimental for more information.
