Compatibility and Maintenance
-----------------------------

[](#compatibility-and-maintenance)

Neos VersionPackage VersionMaintained3.x1.xYES2.3 LTS0.xNOReady to use
------------

[](#ready-to-use)

### Content NodeTypes

[](#content-nodetypes)

- Heading
- Paragraph
- Responsive Image (srcset)
- SVG-Image
- Button
- Responsive Iframe
- Grid (two-, three- and four-column)

### Document NodeTypes

[](#document-nodetypes)

- Home
- Page

**Rules:**

- Each first code-line of a file contains a comment with the respective css class, e.g. `# basetype-paragraph`
- Properties are always namespaced with the BaseType Name, e.g. `paragraphText` - not only `text`

**Structure:**

- Each NodeType is composed out of Mixin parts. For the Paragraph these are:
    - `WebExcess.BaseTypes:Content` defines the NodeType as a Content-Element
    - `WebExcess.BaseTypes:Paragraph.ui` makes the NodeType an needed Inspector Groups visible
    - `WebExcess.BaseTypes:Paragraph.properties.paragraphText--inplace` enables the Property paragraphText with inplace settings
- Each Property is available in three modes:
    - `WebExcess.BaseTypes:Paragraph.properties.paragraphText` the basic property settings
    - `WebExcess.BaseTypes:Paragraph.properties.paragraphText--inspector` .. including the inspector settings
    - `WebExcess.BaseTypes:Paragraph.properties.paragraphText--inplace` .. including the inplace settings

**Hint:**

- Import your initial content with `./flow site:import --package-key WebExcess.BaseTypes`

Usage / Extending
-----------------

[](#usage--extending)

BaseTypes is replacing and extending existing [Neos NodeTypes](https://github.com/neos/neos-nodetypes) and enables you to easily build and extend your own custom NodeTypes.

**Example:**

Create in your Theme Package a Teaser-NodeType which includes an image, an inplace editable heading and text..

*NodeTypes.Teaser.yaml*

```
'WebExcess.Theme:Teaser':
	superTypes:
		'WebExcess.BaseTypes:Content': true
		'WebExcess.BaseTypes:Heading.ui': true
		'WebExcess.BaseTypes:Heading.properties.headingText--inplace': true
		'WebExcess.BaseTypes:Heading.properties.headingTagName--inspector': true
		'WebExcess.BaseTypes:Paragraph.ui': true
		'WebExcess.BaseTypes:Paragraph.properties.paragraphText--inplace': true
		'WebExcess.BaseTypes:Image.ui': true
		'WebExcess.BaseTypes:Image.properties.imageAsset--inspector': true
		'WebExcess.BaseTypes:Button.properties.buttonUrl--inspector': true
		'WebExcess.BaseTypes:Button.properties.buttonStyle': true
	ui:
		label: 'Teaser'
		icon: icon-file-text-o

```

*NodeTypes.Teaser.fusion*

```
prototype(WebExcess.Theme:Teaser) >
prototype(WebExcess.Theme:Teaser) < prototype(WebExcess.BaseTypes:Image) {
	content = Neos.Fusion:Array {
		heading = WebExcess.BaseTypes:HeadingObject
		heading.@position = 'after image'

		text = WebExcess.BaseTypes:ParagraphObject
		text.@position = 'after heading'
	}
}

```

That's all
