Prototyper Pimcore Plugin
=========================

[](#prototyper-pimcore-plugin)

Developer info: [Pimcore at basilicom](http://basilicom.de/en/pimcore)

Synopsis
--------

[](#synopsis)

This Pimcore  plugin simplifies creating object classes via simple CSV data. The first row is used for the field labels and - transliterated - for the field names. All fields are set up as simple varchar(100) text inputs.

Code Example / Method of Operation
----------------------------------

[](#code-example--method-of-operation)

If installed and enabled, use the plugin "configuration" link from the extensions screen to create a new class.

How to create a new class from a CSV file:

- Enter a name for the new object class in the first field.
- Prepare CSV data. Be sure to include a 1st row with human readable header fields.
- Copy and paste the CSV data (newline, UTF-8, separated by ';') into the textarea field.
- Press "Preview CSV Data".
- Review the Table view - 1st row will be the field titles, 2nd row the field names.
- Press "Generate Object Class" to create or update the object class.
- Further steps: Use the object class editor to change the field types according to your needs.

Motivation
----------

[](#motivation)

New Pimcore projects often start with existing data sets of exports. Setting up the data types, aka object classes can be a tedious task, if many fields are involved. This plugin accelerates rapid class prototyping by using CSV data to create object classes.

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Add "basilicom-pimcore-plugin/prototyper" as a requirement to the composer.json in the toplevel directory of your Pimcore installation.

Example:

```
{
    "require": {
        "basilicom-pimcore-plugin/prototyper": "^1.0.0"
    }
}

```

Install the plugin via the Pimcore Extension Manager. Press the "Configure" button of the Plugin from within the Extension Manager to start prototyping a new object class.

API Reference
-------------

[](#api-reference)

The following templates are used to create JSON object class definitions:

- /classes/field.json.php
- /classes/object.json.php

Caveats:

- too many fields might cause a MySQL row size limit error. Reduce varchar size in field.json.php to compensate.

Tests
-----

[](#tests)

- none

Todo
----

[](#todo)

- Basic validation of CSV data, error messages
- Allow field type changes prior to class generation
