Introduction
============

[](#introduction)

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
=====

[](#setup)

Install
-------

[](#install)

Install this package

> composer req punktde/typo3-yaml-loader

Include configuration
---------------------

[](#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
>
> 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
--------------------------

[](#add-a-content-or-page-type)

### Create YAML Config

[](#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

```

Acknowledgments
===============

[](#acknowledgments)

The `ArrayToTyposcriptConverter` class is heavily inspired by this gist by Armin Vieweg:
