Instalation guide for SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend Flow package

There are two guides in this file. First one explains the steps to integrate this package with Forger project. And the other explains how to install the package in new Flow project.

Install SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend to Forge project

Prerequisite

First, you need a flow project with Forger package installed in it. To do so, follow these instructions:

https://github.com/wmdbsystems/WMDB.Forger

Install

cd Packages/Application
git clone git@gitlab.sgalinski.de:typo3/TypoScript-Forger.git SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend
cd SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend

Supply the necessary routes

Edit Routes.yaml of main project (ProjectName/Configuration/Routes.yaml)

It is important to include SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend subRoutes before WMDB.ForgerSubroutes to avoid route conflicts. The prefix ts in uriPattern: ts/<SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend> has purpose to avoid the conflict.

This complete Routes.yaml:

-
  name: 'TypoScriptReferenceFrontend'
  uriPattern: 'ts/<SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend>'
  subRoutes:
    SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend:
      package: SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend

-
  name: 'Forger'
  uriPattern: '<WMDB.ForgerSubroutes>'
  subRoutes:
    WMDB.ForgerSubroutes:
      package: WMDB.Forger

##
# Flow subroutes
#

-
  name: 'Flow'
  uriPattern: '<FlowSubroutes>'
  defaults:
    '@format': 'html'
  subRoutes:
    FlowSubroutes:
      package: TYPO3.Flow

Configure view

To be able to use menu from WMDB.Forger package, view configuration in main project is needed.

In main project, add next lines to ProjectName/Configuration/Views.yaml:

-
  options:
    layoutRootPaths:
      'WMDB.Forger/Layouts': 'resource://WMDB.Forger/Private/Layouts'
    partialRootPaths:
      'WMDB.Forger/Partials': 'resource://WMDB.Forger/Private/Partials'
      'SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend/Partials': 'resource://SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend/Private/Partials'
#    templateRootPaths:
#      'WMDB.Forger/Templates': 'resource://WMDB.Forger/Private/Templates'
#      'SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend/Templates': 'resource://SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend/Private/Templates'

(if Views.yaml doesn't exist, create it)

Install backend

This package is front end part of grater entity. All the data which is used by this package is provided by RESTful web service:

https://gitlab.sgalinski.de/typo3/TypoScript-Backend

If the web service is not installed, follow it's readme to do so.

Access the package via browser

This is access address:

your.domain/ts/tsref

Add TypoScript reference link to Forger menu

This code:

<li><f:link.action package="SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend" controller="tsref" action="index"><i class="fa fa-fw fa-file-text-o"></i> TypoScript reference</f:link.action></li>

Needs to be added to the Forger file:

Packages/Application/WMDB.Forger/Resources/Private/Partials/Menu.html

under Utility menu. It should be at line 28.

================================================================

Install SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend to new project

Prerequisite

SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend is Flow package, so you need first a flow project.

composer create-project --dev --keep-vcs typo3/flow-base-distribution ProjectName

You can use any project name you wish. If you already have Flow project, you can skip this step.

Install

cd Packages/Application
git clone git@gitlab.sgalinski.de:typo3/TypoScript-Forger.git SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend
cd SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend

Supply the necessary routes

Edit Routes.yaml of your project (ProjectName/Configuration/Routes.yaml)

-
  name: 'TypoScriptReferenceFrontend'
  uriPattern: '<SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend>'
  subRoutes:
    SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend:
      package: SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend

##
# Flow subroutes
#

-
  name: 'Flow'
  uriPattern: '<FlowSubroutes>'
  defaults:
    '@format': 'html'
  subRoutes:
    FlowSubroutes:
      package: TYPO3.Flow

Uri prefix can be added if needed, e.g.: uriPattern: 'ts/<SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend>'.

Configure view

To be able to integrate SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend package with other packages (for example to use existing layout with menu from other package), view configuration in main project is needed.

      'WMDB.Forger/Layouts': 'resource://WMDB.Forger/Private/Layouts'
    partialRootPaths:
      'WMDB.Forger/Partials': 'resource://WMDB.Forger/Private/Partials'
      'SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend/Partials': 'resource://SGalinski.TypoScriptReferenceFrontend/Private/Partials'
#    templateRootPaths:
#      'WMDB.Forger/Templates': 'resource://WMDB.Forger/Private/Templates'
