Feature: #99834 - New PSR-14 AfterAutoCreateRedirectHasBeenPersistedEvent

See forge#99834

Description

A new PSR-14 event \TYPO3\CMS\Redirects\Event\AfterAutoCreateRedirectHasBeenPersistedEvent is introduced, allowing extension authors to react on persisted auto-created redirects. This can be used to call external API or do other tasks based on the real persisted redirects.

Note

To handle later updates or react on manual created redirects in the backend module, available hooks of \TYPO3\CMS\Core\DataHandling\DataHandler can be used.

Example:

Registration of the event listener:

EXT:my_extension/Configuration/Services.yaml

MyVendor\MyExtension\Redirects\MyEventListener:
  tags:
    - name: event.listener
      identifier: 'my-extension/after-auto-create-redirect-has-been-persisted'

The corresponding event listener class:

EXT:my_extension/Classes/Redirects/MyEventListener.php

namespace MyVendor\MyExtension\Redirects;

use TYPO3\CMS\Redirects\Event\AfterAutoCreateRedirectHasBeenPersistedEvent;
use TYPO3\CMS\Redirects\RedirectUpdate\PlainSlugReplacementRedirectSource;

class MyEventListener {

    public function __invoke(
        AfterAutoCreateRedirectHasBeenPersistedEvent $event
    ): void {
        $redirectUid = $event->getRedirectRecord()['uid'] ?? null;
        if ($redirectUid === null
            && !($event->getSource() instanceof PlainSlugReplacementRedirectSource)
        ) {
            return;
        }

        // Implement code what should be done with this information. E.g.
        // write to another table, call a rest api or similar. Find your
        // use-case.
    }
}

Impact

With the new AfterAutoCreateRedirectHasBeenPersistedEvent, it's now possible to react on persisted auto-created redirects. Manually created redirects can be handled by using one of the available \TYPO3\CMS\Core\DataHandling\DataHandler hooks, not suitable for auto-created redirects.
