README

TYPO3 extension typo3_toolbox

This extension provides several tools for TYPO3 integrators and developers.

Features:

• Adds an event listener to minify HTML output
• Adds an event listener to add save and close button
• Adds a xClass for TYPO3 asset collector which will automatically render noscript tags beside CSS link tags, which can be adopted to optimize CSS preloading (see: https://web.dev/articles/defer-non-critical-css)
• Adds a view helper which can return the uid of the first content element on a page X
• Adds a CSS view helper that enables the rendering of a noscript variant and allows inline styles to be replaced by a key-value-based inlineReplacements option flag
• Adds a sentry middleware and frontend module ...
• Adds a custom TYPO3 page renderer template which removes some unnecessary spaces and changes the order of inline CSS injection

Version support

Extension version	TYPO3	PHP
2.x	14.3	8.4, 8.5
1.x	13.4	8.4, 8.5

Installation

Composer

composer require move-elevator/typo3-toolbox

Configuration

Sentry

Add the following environment variables to your .env file to configure Sentry:

SENTRY_DSN=''
SENTRY_ENVIRONMENT=''
SENTRY_RELEASE=''

If you want to use the Sentry frontend monitoring as well, you can use the shipped Sentry Monitoring Service JavaScript or just adopt this.

For example:

<f:asset.script
    defer="1"
    identifier="sentryMonitoringService"
    nonce="{f:security.nonce()}"
    priority="1"
    src="EXT:typo3_toolbox/Resources/Public/JavaScript/Service/SentryMonitoringService.min.js"
/>

Sentry monitoring is enabled by default for frontend and backend issue/ performance tracking, but can be disabled via the extension configuration if required.

Disable backend issue tracking:

$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXTENSIONS']['typo3_toolbox']['sentryBackendEnabled'] = 0;

Disable frontend issue/ performance tracking:

$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['EXTENSIONS']['typo3_toolbox']['sentryFrontendEnabled'] = 0;

Documentation

Content Minifier

The ContentMinifierEventListener automatically minifies the HTML output of all cacheable frontend pages. It hooks into the TYPO3 AfterCacheableContentIsGeneratedEvent and is active by default — no configuration required.

Optimizations

Optimization	Description
Remove JS inline comments	Strips /** */ comments
Collapse whitespace	Converts linebreaks, tabs, and multiple spaces into single spaces
Remove inter-tag spaces	Removes spaces between HTML tags (preserves inline tags: a, b, strong, img, em, i, span, small, big)
Fix self-closing tags	Converts " /> to "> for HTML5 conformity
Remove redundant type attributes	Strips type="text/css" from <style> and type="text/javascript" from <script> tags
Normalize class attributes	Collapses multiple spaces within class attribute values
Minify JSON-LD schemas	Re-encodes <script type="application/ld+json"> content as compact JSON; removes invalid schemas
Remove CKEditor data attributes	Strips data-list-item-id attributes from <li> elements added by CKEditor 5 (TYPO3#109002, CKEditor5#19006)
Trim tag content whitespace	Removes leading/trailing whitespace inside h1–h6, p, li, td, th, dt, dd, button, and label tags

Middlewares

Middleware	Path/ Parameter	Description
SentryMiddleware	/api/sentry	Returns sentry environment data as json which is consumed in the frontend.

TypoScript

The extension ships a site set (Toolbox) that includes the following TypoScript configuration:

• Admin Panel (Config.typoscript): Enables the TYPO3 admin panel and sets the custom page renderer template.

Page TSconfig

The site set also provides default Page TSconfig via page.tsconfig:

• TCEMAIN (TCEMAIN.tsconfig): Configures default user/group permissions and table-specific copy behavior for pages and tt_content (disables prepending "[Translate to...]" on copy, keeps copied elements visible).
• Clipboard (Mod.tsconfig): Enables the clipboard in the web list module.
• Link Validator (Extensions/LinkValidator.tsconfig): Enables validation for db, file and external link types and sets a 10-second timeout for external link validation.

User TSconfig

The extension provides a default user.tsconfig that configures the admin panel modules:

• Enabled: cache, edit, preview
• Disabled: debug, info, publish, tsdebug
