Come together with the global Drupal community in Rotterdam, 28 Sept – 1 Oct 2026. Sessions, contribution, connection, and Early Bird savings until 8 June.I am trying to use the class defined render_class to populate data in views and on pages using hook_ENTITY_TYPE_view(). However, hook_ENTITY_TYPE_view takes in a EntityInterface object instead of an Entity object. This is causing the following error to be thrown:
TypeError: Argument 1 passed to Drupal\my_module\Extrafield\ElementsResearchInterests::render() must be an instance of Drupal\Core\Entity\Entity, instance of Drupal\node\Entity\Node given
I think the ExtrafieldRenderClassInterface should also use EntityInterface as well. I've tested this out locally and it appears to work.
