List enabled view modes (view displays) for a bundle of an entity type

getBundlesWithViewmode.php
  private function getBundlesWithViewmode(string $entity_type, string $view_mode): array {
    $bundles = [];

    foreach (\Drupal::service('entity_type.bundle.info')->getBundleInfo($entity_type) as $bundle => $info) {
      $view_modes = \Drupal::service('entity_display.repository')->getViewModeOptionsByBundle($entity_type, $bundle);
      if (isset($view_modes[$view_mode])) {
        $bundles[] = $bundle;
      }
    }

    return $bundles;
  }
  

Issue:

A developer needs to find which bundles of a given entity type have a specific view mode enabled – for example, to conditionally apply logic only to bundles where a teaser or custom view mode is configured.

Solution:

This snippet finds all bundles for a certain entity type which have a certain view mode enabled. 

Example: Find all node bundles that have a teaser view display. 
→ php $this->getBundlesWithViewmode('node', 'teaser'); Result: php ['article', 'blog']

  return $this->request()->query->get('eca_validation', '') === 'off';
}

public function getPluginCollections(): array {
  if ($this->isValidationDisabled()) {
    return [];
  }
  // Otherwise every referenced event/condition/action plugin is

  // of them no longer exists.
