Find records

Find all records (of a given table, type and subtype) within the pagetree of a given root uid:

bin/typo3 toolbox:find 123 [type] [subtype]

# Find all powermail plugins (old)
bin/typo3 toolbox:find 123 list 'powermail%'

# Find all powermail plugins (new)
bin/typo3 toolbox:find 123 'powermail%'

# Global search for powermail fields of type 'captcha'
bin/typo3 toolbox:find 0 captcha --table=tx_powermail_domain_model_field

Other parameters:

  • --table, default: tt_content
  • --columns, comma separated list of field names, default: uid,pid,,<title>
  • --enable-columns/-e, append enable fields to columns
  • --order, comma separated list of field names
  • --count, perform a COUNT instead of a SELECT
  • --limit

Pagetree

Determine uids of all children in the pagetree of a given root uid:

bin/typo3 toolbox:tree 123 [--table=pages] [--depth=10] [--separator=,] [--languages=0]

A site identifier can be used instead of the root uid:

bin/typo3 toolbox:tree my-site-identifier

Categorytree

Determine uids of all children in the categorytree of a given root uid:

bin/typo3 toolbox:tree 321 --table=sys_category

(!) Use with caution and backup!

bin/typo3 toolbox:delete --source=123 [--table=pages] [--memory-limit=512M]

Copy/move records

See TYPO3 datahandler for details on behaviour of positive/negative --target parameter

# Copy tt_content:123 to page:234
bin/typo3 toolbox:copy --table=tt_content --source=123 --target=234 [--be-user=1] [--memory-limit=512M]

# Copy tt_content:123 right behind tt_content:-234
bin/typo3 toolbox:copy --table=tt_content --source=123 --target=-234

# Move pages:123 to page:234
bin/typo3 toolbox:move --source=123 --target=234

Move FAL folders across storages

To move a folder from one storage (fileadmin) to another you can use this command to

  • Move all files within the given "source" to the given "target" folder
  • Recalculate the file hashes
bin/typo3 toolbox:move-fal-folder 1:/folder/subfolder/ 2:/different-folder/subfolder
