  7. * Returns the list of options to be displayed for a field.
  8. *
  9. * Field types willing to enable one or several of the widgets defined in
  10. * options.module (select, radios/checkboxes, on/off checkbox) need to
  11. * implement this hook to specify the list of options to display in the
  12. * widgets.
  13. *
  14. * @param $field
  15. * The field definition.
  16. * @param $instance
  17. * (optional) The instance definition. The hook might be called without an
  18. * $instance parameter in contexts where no specific instance can be targeted.
  19. * It is recommended to only use instance level properties to filter out
  20. * values from a list defined by field level properties.
  21. * @param $entity_type
  22. * The entity type the field is attached to.
  23. * @param $entity
  24. * The entity object the field is attached to, or NULL if no entity
  25. * exists (e.g. in field settings page).
  26. *
  27. * @return
  28. * The array of options for the field. Array keys are the values to be
  29. * stored, and should be of the data type (string, number...) expected by
  30. * the first 'column' for the field type. Array values are the labels to
  31. * display within the widgets. The labels should NOT be sanitized,
  32. * options.module takes care of sanitation according to the needs of each
  33. * widget. The HTML tags defined in _field_filter_xss_allowed_tags() are
  34. * allowed, other tags will be filtered.
