README

Build your own element exports in the Craft CMS control panel, mapping fields, native attributes and nested fields to columns.

Requirements

This plugin requires Craft CMS 5.8.0 or later, and PHP 8.2 or later.

Dynex reads fields, attributes and values with Field Value Parser, which Composer installs with it. Its plugin doesn't need to be installed.

For Craft CMS 4, use the 1.x releases.

Installation

You can install this plugin from the Plugin Store or with Composer.

From the Plugin Store

Go to the Plugin Store in your project’s Control Panel and search for “Dynamic Exporter”. Then press “Install”.

With Composer

Open your terminal and run the following commands:

# go to the project directory
cd /path/to/my-project.test

# tell Composer to load the plugin
composer require contentreactor/craft-dynex

# inside DDEV
ddev composer require contentreactor/craft-dynex

# tell Craft to install the plugin
./craft plugin/install dynex

# inside DDEV
ddev craft plugin/install dynex

Upgrading from Craft CMS 4

Update Craft CMS and the plugin together, then run the migrations (./craft up).

Exporters keep their field mappings. When Craft turns Matrix block types into entry types, and the fields inside them into global fields, it keeps their handles, so mapped fields like pageBlocks.text:body keep working. The plugin renames the author attribute to authors, since Craft 5 entries can have multiple authors.
