Beside adding content for the normal text fields like `title`, `teaser`, `bodytext` it is also possible to upload an image and a file download as well as selecting a category. Templates are ready to use with the [bootstrap framework](https://getbootstrap.com/) and icons will be shown, if you have [Font Awesome](https://fontawesome.com/) icon set included in your project. Validation of input is done in the frontend, rich text editing enabled for the textarea and a date picker in place for the archive date. Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - TYPO3 ^13.4 || ^14.0 - ext:news ^11.0 || ^12.0 || ^13.0 || ^14.0 Installation ------------ [](#installation) - Install the extension via Composer or the Extension Manager - Add the Site Set **"News Frontend" (`mediadreams/md-newsfrontend`)** to your site configuration (`config/sites//config.yaml`) - Configure the extension settings directly in the site configuration GUI or via `settings.yaml` > **Important:** If a TypoScript template record exists on your root page, make sure the checkboxes **"Clear constants"** and **"Clear setup"** are **unchecked**. When checked, they wipe all TypoScript loaded by Site Sets before the template record is processed, which results in empty extension settings. ### Legacy TypoScript include [](#legacy-typoscript-include) If you prefer the classic approach, you can still include the TypoScript manually from `EXT:md_newsfrontend/Configuration/TypoScript/` and override constants as needed. Usage ----- [](#usage) - Add the pluign `News frontend` on a page, which is restricted by the frontend user login - Select a storage page in the plugin-tab in the field `Record Storage Page` - Now a frontend user is able to add, edit and delete own records PSR-14 Events ------------- [](#psr-14-events) Following PSR-14 events are available: - `Mediadreams\MdNewsfrontend\Event\CreateActionBeforeSaveEvent`: Called just before saving a new record - `Mediadreams\MdNewsfrontend\Event\CreateActionAfterPersistEvent`: Called after a new record was saved (new record Id is available) - `Mediadreams\MdNewsfrontend\Event\UpdateActionBeforeSaveEvent`: Called just before an existing record will be updated - `Mediadreams\MdNewsfrontend\Event\DeleteActionBeforeDeleteEvent`: Called just before a record will be deleted - `Mediadreams\MdNewsfrontend\Event\ModifyAllowedMimeTypesEvent`: Called during file upload validation to modify the allowed MIME types for a given file extension ### Register an event [](#register-an-event) Add following lines in `Configuration/Services.yaml` of your own extension: ``` services: Vendor\Extension\EventListener\MyListener: tags: - name: event.listener identifier: 'ext-mdnewsfrontend/createActionBeforeSaveEvent' method: 'enrichNews' event: Mediadreams\MdNewsfrontend\Event\CreateActionBeforeSaveEvent ``` Add the class `Vendor\Extension\EventListener\MyListener` with the method `enrichNews` in your extension: ``` namespace Vendor\Extension\EventListener; use Mediadreams\MdNewsfrontend\Event\CreateActionBeforeSaveEvent; final class MyListener { public function enrichNews(CreateActionBeforeSaveEvent $obj) { // Get news object $news = $obj->getNews(); $news->setTeaser('Set some teaser...'); // Get NewsController $newsController = $obj->getNewsController(); } } ``` ### ModifyAllowedMimeTypesEvent [](#modifyallowedmimetypesevent) The `ModifyAllowedMimeTypesEvent` is dispatched during file upload validation and allows you to extend or override the built-in MIME type map. This is useful when you need to permit file extensions that are not covered by the default configuration (e.g. `svg`, `heic`, `odt`). The event provides the following methods: - `getExtension(): string` — the file extension being validated (lowercase, e.g. `'svg'`) - `getMimeTypes(): array` — the current list of allowed MIME types for this extension - `setMimeTypes(array $mimeTypes): void` — replace the entire list of allowed MIME types - `addMimeType(string $mimeType): void` — append a single MIME type to the existing list **Example:** Allow SVG uploads by adding a listener in `Configuration/Services.yaml`: ``` services: Vendor\Extension\EventListener\AddSvgMimeType: tags: - name: event.listener identifier: 'my-extension/add-svg-mime-type' event: Mediadreams\MdNewsfrontend\Event\ModifyAllowedMimeTypesEvent ``` ``` namespace Vendor\Extension\EventListener; use Mediadreams\MdNewsfrontend\Event\ModifyAllowedMimeTypesEvent; final class AddSvgMimeType { public function __invoke(ModifyAllowedMimeTypesEvent $event): void { if ($event->getExtension() === 'svg') { $event->setMimeTypes(['image/svg+xml']); } } } ``` > **Note:** Extensions not present in the MIME type map skip the MIME check entirely. To enforce MIME validation for a new extension, add it via this event. To disable MIME validation for an existing extension, call `$event->setMimeTypes([])` for that extension.
