Feature: #67662 - DataProcessor for files¶

Description¶

A new Files DataProcessor has been introduced, which can be used to prepare data to be handled by a ContentObject implementing the processors, e.g. the FLUIDTEMPLATE ContentObject. The FilesProcessor resolves File References, Files, or Files inside a folder or collection to be used for output in the Frontend. A FLUIDTEMPLATE can then simply iterate over processed data automatically.

tt_content.image.20 = FLUIDTEMPLATE
tt_content.image.20 {
	file = EXT:myextension/Resources/Private/Templates/ContentObjects/Image.html

	dataProcessing.10 = TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\DataProcessing\FilesProcessor
	dataProcessing.10 {
		# the field name where relations are set
		# + stdWrap
		references.fieldName = image

		# the table name where relations are put, defaults to the currently selected record from $cObj->getTable()
		# + stdWrap
		references.table = tt_content

		# A list of sys_file UID records
		# + stdWrap
		files = 21,42

		# A list of File Collection UID records
		# + stdWrap
		collections = 13,14

		# A list of FAL Folder identifiers and files fetched recursive from all folders
		# + stdWrap
		folders = 1:introduction/images/,1:introduction/posters/
		folders.recursive = 1

		# Property of which the files should be sorted after they have been accumulated
		# can be any property of sys_file, sys_file_metadata
		# + stdWrap
		sorting = description

		# Can be "ascending", "descending" or "random", defaults to "ascending" if none given
		# + stdWrap
		sorting.direction = descending

		# The target variable to be handed to the ContentObject again, can be used
		# in Fluid e.g. to iterate over the objects. defaults to "files" when not defined
		# + stdWrap
		as = myfiles
	}
}

In the Fluid template then iterate over the files:

<ul>
<f:for each="{myfiles}" as="file">
	<li><a href="{file.publicUrl}">{file.name}</a></li>
</f:for>
</ul>
