FieldConfigBase::setDefaultValue

public FieldConfigBase::setDefaultValue($value)

Sets a default value.

Note that if a default value callback is set, it will take precedence over any value set here.

Parameters

mixed $value: The default value for the field. This can be either:

• a literal, in which case it will be assigned to the first property of the first item.
• a numerically indexed array of items, each item being a property/value array.
• a non-numerically indexed array, in which case the array is assumed to be a property/value array and used as the first item
• NULL or array() for no default value.

Return value

$this
