Provide online user help.

By implementing hook_help(), a module can make documentation available to the engine or to other modules. All user help should be returned using this hook; developer help should be provided with Doxygen/api.module comments.

Übergabeparameter

$path A Drupal menu router path the help is being requested for, e.g. admin/node or user/edit. If the router path includes a % wildcard, then this will appear in the path - for example all node pages will have the path node/% or node/%/view. Also recognizes special descriptors after a "#" sign. Some examples:

• admin/help#modulename The module's help text, displayed on the admin/help page and through the module's individual help link.
• user/help#modulename The help for a distributed authorization module (if applicable).

$arg An array that corresponds to the return of the arg() function - if a module needs to provide help for a page with additional parameters after the Drupal path or help for a specific value for a wildcard in the path, then the values in this array can be referenced. For example you could provide help for user/1 by looking for the path user/% and $arg[1] == '1'. This array should always be used rather than directly invoking arg(). Note that depending on which module is invoking hook_help, $arg may contain only, empty strings. Regardless, $arg[0] to $arg[11] will always be set.

Rückgabewert

A localized string containing the help text. Every web link, l(), or url() must be replaced with %something and put into the final t() call: $output .= 'A role defines a group of users that have certain privileges as defined in %permission.'; $output = t($output, array('%permission' => l(t('user permissions'), 'admin/user/permission')));

For a detailed usage example, see page_example.module.
