Retrieve AttributeType header/footer items

Permalink
Hey all. I'm trying to grab all of the assets for an AttributeType(View) object, so that I can output them along with a block/helper that I'm building. I'm having a bear of a time trying to track down how the default Attribute view loads those assets. I'm using a custom AttributeType that I created that has form.js/form.css along with the form.php file, and it works fine in the standard "Page Properties" dialog.

Here's what I tried.. but coming up empty.
Loader::model('attribute/categories/collection');
$ao = CollectionAttributeKey::getByHandle($handle);
if (is_object($ao)) {
   $avo = Page::getCurrentPage()->getAttributeValueObject($ao);
   $at = $ao->getAttributeType();
   $atv = new AttributeTypeView($at, $ao, $avo);
   var_dump($atv->getHeaderItems());
   var_dump($atv->outputFooterItems());
}


If I var_dump($atv), I get the correct AttributeTypeView object, but I'm at a loss for where to turn on this one.

Ahh, scratch that.. In the AttributeTypeView the render() method does a very simple call to get those items that I overlooked.

$js = $this->attributeType->getAttributeTypeFileURL($view . '.js');
         $css = $this->attributeType->getAttributeTypeFileURL($view . '.css');


Thanks anyway folks! :) Hope someone can save headache with this.
