README

This package was created as a proof-of-concept for content-type and doktype configuration via YAML files instead of the complicated process currently required by the TYPO3 Core

Setup

Install

Install this package

composer req punktde/typo3-yaml-loader

Include configuration

Add the following lines to your ext_tables.php:

    $doktypeLoader = GeneralUtility::makeInstance(DoktypeLoader::class, 'your-site-extension-key');
    $doktypeLoader->loadPageTypes();

Add the following lines to your ext_localconf.php:

    $doktypeLoader = GeneralUtility::makeInstance(DoktypeLoader::class, 'your-site-extension-key');
    $doktypeLoader->loadPageTS();

    /** @var ContentTypeLoader $contentTypeLoader */
    $contentTypeLoader = GeneralUtility::makeInstance(ContentTypeLoader::class, 'your-site-extension-key');
    $contentTypeLoader->loadPageTS();

Add the following lines to your Configuration/TCA/Overrides/pages.php:

    $doktypeLoader = GeneralUtility::makeInstance(DoktypeLoader::class, 'your-site-extension-key');
    $doktypeLoader->loadTcaOverrides();

Add the following lines to your Configuration/TCA/Overrides/tt_content.php:

    $contentTypeLoader = GeneralUtility::makeInstance(ContentTypeLoader::class, 'your-site-extension-key');
    $contentTypeLoader->loadTcaOverrides();

Please Note: This package does not contain any configuration for rendering of custom Content-Types or Doktypes. You will need to take care of registering rendering via Typoscript yourself.

For Content Elements see https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/reference-coreapi/main/en-us/ApiOverview/ContentElements/AddingYourOwnContentElements.html#configure-the-frontend-rendering

For doktypes you will need to configure your page object to choose the correct template, eg. based on backend_layout.

Backend Layouts will be named as pagets__{YOUR_IDENTIFIER} by TYPO3. You can use this identifier to render the appropriate template.

Add a Content or Page Type

Create YAML Config

YAML configuration files are located at Configuration/(ContentTypes|Doktyps)/(Elements|Palettes)

The yaml config will be validated on load, you can find the validation-rules in the following class:

  Classes/Validator/*Validator.php
