Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - SilverStripe ^6 - PHP ^8.3 Installation ------------ [](#installation) ``` composer require dhensby/silverstripe-copybutton ``` Usage ----- [](#usage) To add the button to the GridField, add `CopyButton` as a component. The most common place to do this is in a `ModelAdmin` by overriding `getEditForm()`: ``` use Unisolutions\GridField\CopyButton; public function getEditForm($id = null, $fields = null) { $form = parent::getEditForm($id, $fields); $form ->Fields() ->fieldByName($this->sanitiseClassName($this->modelClass)) ->getConfig() ->addComponent(new CopyButton(), GridFieldEditButton::class); return $form; } ``` ### Display modes [](#display-modes) By default the copy button appears in the action menu dropdown for each row. Pass `true` to the constructor to render it as a standalone column button instead: ``` ->addComponent(new CopyButton(true)); ``` ### Cascading duplications [](#cascading-duplications) The copy action makes an exact duplicate of the record. To also duplicate relations, configure cascading duplications on your `DataObject`: See: [https://docs.silverstripe.org/en/6/developer\_guides/model/relations/#cascading-duplications](https://docs.silverstripe.org/en/6/developer_guides/model/relations/#cascading-duplications) ### Post-copy hook [](#post-copy-hook) To run custom logic after a record is copied (e.g. clearing certain relations), implement `onAfterDuplicate()` on the `DataObject` or an extension: ``` class MyDataObjectExtension extends DataExtension { public function onAfterDuplicate(DataObject $original, bool $doWrite): void { // e.g. clear a relation on the new copy $this->owner->Tags()->removeAll(); } } ``` Maintainer ---------- [](#maintainer) Originally authored by Elvinas Liutkevičius .
