Goal is to be able to do the most common tasks by CLI instead of doing it in the backend/browser. Beside of CLI commands, EXT:coreapi provides service classes, which can be used in your own implementation/extension. Checkout the project website at forge.typo3.org: ### Tasks [](#tasks) - DatabaseApi - databaseCompare - CacheApi - clearAllCaches - clearPageCache - clearConfigurationCache - ExtensionApi - info - listInstalled - updateList from TER - fetch an extension from TER - import an extension - install / uninstall extension - create upload folders - configure extension - SiteApi - info - createSysNews #### planned/comming soon [](#plannedcomming-soon) - Backend - manage users (list, create, update, delete) - lock/unlock the TYPO3 backend - PageTree - print/get - DataApi - generic list/create/update/delete records (and not doing the plain SQL, but using the DataHandler (aka tcemain)!) - getRecordsByPid - create a database dump (exclude "temporary" tables like caches, sys\_log, ...) - ReportsApi - run/check the reports from the reports module - ConfigurationApi - list, get and set TYPO3 configurations ### CLI call: [](#cli-call) Make sure you have a backend user called `_cli_lowlevel` If you want to use the cache clearing commands, you need to add the following snippet to the TSconfig field of this backend user: ``` options.clearCache.all=1 options.clearCache.pages=1 ``` #### TYPO3 6.2 and below [](#typo3-62-and-below) Support for TYPO3 CMS below 6.2 was removed with version 0.2.0 of this extension. In case you need to use ext:coreapi in combination with lower version of TYPO3 CMS use version [0.1.0-beta](https://github.com/TYPO3-coreapi/ext-coreapi/releases/tag/0.1.0-beta "0.1.0-beta"). #### TYPO3 6.2+ [](#typo3-62) If you are using TYPO3 6.2+, you can use the awesome CommandController of Extbase. This will show you all available calls ./typo3/cli\_dispatch.phpsh extbase help ### Usage in Composer [](#usage-in-composer) ``` { "name": "typo3cms/test-website", "description": "TYPO3 CMS: test.com", "keywords": ["typo3", "cms"], "require": { "php": ">=5.3.3", "typo3core/cms": "*", "etobi/coreapi": "dev-master", }, "extra": { "installer-paths": { "typo3conf/ext/{$name}": [ "type:typo3-cms-extension" ] } }, "minimum-stability": "dev", "require-dev": {}, "scripts": {} } ``` ### Running the unit tests [](#running-the-unit-tests) The Unit Tests rely on [vfsStream](https://github.com/mikey179/vfsStream "vfsStream"). For some reasons ext:coreapi don't add this dependencies by itself but uses the one which is alread defined for Core Unit Tests. To install vfsStream copy the composer.json from the TYPO3 CMS package into you webroot folder and execute the command `composer install`. This will install all dependencies into Packages/Libraries/. Then run the Unit Tests. ``` cp typo3_src/composer.json . composer install ./bin/phpunit --colors -c typo3/sysext/core/Build/UnitTests.xml typo3conf/ext/coreapi/Tests/Unit/ ``` ### Health Score 39 — LowBetter than 86% of packages Maintenance12 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity39 Limited adoption so far Community25 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity68 Established project with proven stability Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 69.9% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio. Uses a 2-year decay window. **Popularity (30%)** — Total and monthly downloads, GitHub stars, and forks. Logarithmic scaling prevents top-heavy scores. **Community (15%)** — Contributors, dependents, forks, watchers, and maintainers. Measures real ecosystem engagement. **Maturity (30%)** — Project age, version count, PHP version support, and release stability. ### Release Activity Cadence Every ~121 days Recently: every ~140 days Total 6 Last Release 3765d ago Major Versions 0.1.0-beta → 1.0.0-beta2014-07-13 ### Community Maintainers ![](https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/630fea7235adb809ecdb88d9245986f5c3a82c4b0b036967d95872a566ac2900?d=identicon)[etobi](/maintainers/etobi) ![](https://www.gravatar.com/avatar/b6aaf47df633cf9e260061e733e6cb82af4dabde0023bbcd2096dac330f41eb9?d=identicon)[Konafets](/maintainers/Konafets) --- Top Contributors [![etobi](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/152207?v=4)](https://github.com/etobi "etobi (58 commits)")[![georgringer](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1905663?v=4)](https://github.com/georgringer "georgringer (6 commits)")[![bmoex](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/2414665?v=4)](https://github.com/bmoex "bmoex (3 commits)")[![7elix](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/878514?v=4)](https://github.com/7elix "7elix (2 commits)")[![oliverklee](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/765746?v=4)](https://github.com/oliverklee "oliverklee (2 commits)")[![Konafets](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/363363?v=4)](https://github.com/Konafets "Konafets (2 commits)")[![smichaelsen](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/912435?v=4)](https://github.com/smichaelsen "smichaelsen (2 commits)")[![thomashohn](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/3414869?v=4)](https://github.com/thomashohn "thomashohn (1 commits)")[![waffle-iron](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/6912981?v=4)](https://github.com/waffle-iron "waffle-iron (1 commits)")[![christophlehmann](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/4953689?v=4)](https://github.com/christophlehmann "christophlehmann (1 commits)")[![DanielSiepmann](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/354250?v=4)](https://github.com/DanielSiepmann "DanielSiepmann (1 commits)")[![greinerdavid](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/3600696?v=4)](https://github.com/greinerdavid "greinerdavid (1 commits)")[![jdreesen](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/424602?v=4)](https://github.com/jdreesen "jdreesen (1 commits)")[![jmverges](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/2902073?v=4)](https://github.com/jmverges "jmverges (1 commits)")[![madsbrunn](https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/213785?v=4)](https://github.com/madsbrunn "madsbrunn (1 commits)") --- Tags cliextensiontypo3deploymentcommandline ### Embed Badge ![Health badge](/badges/etobi-coreapi/health.svg) ``` [![Health](https://phpackages.com/badges/etobi-coreapi/health.svg)](https://phpackages.com/packages/etobi-coreapi) ``` ### Alternatives [helhum/typo3-console A reliable and powerful command line interface for TYPO3 CMS 2939.0M192](/packages/helhum-typo3-console)[b13/make Kickstarter CLI tool for various TYPO3 functionalities 47250.0k1](/packages/b13-make) PHPackages © 2026 [Directory](/)[Categories](/categories)[Trending](/trending)[Changelog](/changelog)[Analyze](/analyze)
