Base URL for TYPO3 commands and tasks
=====================================

[](#base-url-for-typo3-commands-and-tasks)

In in scripts where no FE or BE context is available and you want to build URLs its a good idea to get the absolute URL from a site configuration. This extension provides a helper class to get there.

Where to use
------------

[](#where-to-use)

- commands which are called via cli
- scheduler tasks

Features
--------

[](#features)

- get base URL depending on site configurations
- absolute a relative URL

Getting Started
---------------

[](#getting-started)

use the static functions from `BaseUrl` helper Class

```
\Sitegeist\BaseUrl\Helper\BaseUrl::get(); // https://example.com/
```

```
\Sitegeist\BaseUrl\Helper\BaseUrl::prepend('home.html'); // https://example.com/home.html
```

use the viewhelpers in your fluid templates e. g. for mails

```

```

```
home.html
```

Multiple site configuration setups
----------------------------------

[](#multiple-site-configuration-setups)

if your system has more than one site configuration, you can specify which site configuration should be used by:

- specify site configuration identifier

    ```
    BaseUrl::get('mysite');
    BaseUrl::prepend('home.html', 'mysite');
    ```

    ```

    home.html
    ```
- specify a pageUid (anywhere in the pageTree)

    ```
    BaseUrl::get(null, 1);
    BaseUrl::prepend('home.html', null, 1);
    ```

    ```

    home.html
    ```

Getting further
---------------

[](#getting-further)

Disable `$asString` return type to get an `TYPO3\CMS\Core\Http\Uri` object. Now you can get or change specific parts of the url.

```
BaseUrl::get(null, null, true, false);

BaseUrl::prepend('home.html', null, null, true, false);
/*
TYPO3\CMS\Core\Http\Uri prototype object
   scheme => protected "https" (5 chars)
   supportedSchemes => protected array(2 items)
      http => 80 (integer)
      https => 443 (integer)
   authority => protected "" (0 chars)
   userInfo => protected "" (0 chars)
   host => protected "example.com" (11 chars)
   port => protected NULL
   path => protected "home.html" (9 chars)
   query => protected "" (0 chars)
   fragment => protected NULL
*/
```
