BaseFieldDefinition::getDefaultValue

public BaseFieldDefinition::getDefaultValue(FieldableEntityInterface $entity)

Returns the default value for the field in a newly created entity.

This method computes the runtime default value for a field in a given entity. To access the raw properties assigned to the field definition, ::getDefaultValueLiteral() or ::getDefaultValueCallback() should be used instead.

Parameters

\Drupal\Core\Entity\FieldableEntityInterface $entity: The entity for which the default value is generated.

Return value

array The default value for the field, as a numerically indexed array of items, each item being a property/value array (array() for no default value).
