ModifyClearCacheActionsEvent¶

New in version 11.4

The PSR-14 event \TYPO3\CMS\Backend\Backend\Event\ModifyClearCacheActionsEvent is fired in the \TYPO3\CMS\Backend\Backend\ToolbarItems\ClearCacheToolbarItem class and allows extension authors to modify the clear cache actions, shown in the TYPO3 backend top toolbar.

The event can be used to change or remove existing clear cache actions, as well as to add new actions. Therefore, the event also contains, next to the usual "getter" and "setter" methods, the convenience method add() for the cacheActions and cacheActionIdentifiers arrays.

Example¶

Registration of the event listener in the extension's Services.yaml:

EXT:my_extension/Configuration/Services.yaml

services:
  # Place here the default dependency injection configuration

  MyVendor\MyExtension\Backend\EventListener\MyEventListener:
    tags:
      - name: event.listener
        identifier: 'my-extension/toolbar/my-event-listener'

Read how to configure dependency injection in extensions.

The corresponding event listener class:

EXT:my_extension/Classes/Backend/EventListener/MyEventListener.php

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace MyVendor\MyExtension\Backend\EventListener;

use TYPO3\CMS\Backend\Backend\Event\ModifyClearCacheActionsEvent;

final class MyEventListener
{
    public function __invoke(ModifyClearCacheActionsEvent $event): void
    {
        // do magic here
    }
}

The cache action array element consists of the following keys and values:

Example cache action array

[
    'id' => 'pages',
    'title' => 'LLL:EXT:core/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_core.xlf:flushPageCachesTitle',
    'description' => 'LLL:EXT:core/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_core.xlf:flushPageCachesDescription',
    'href' => (string)$uriBuilder->buildUriFromRoute('tce_db', ['cacheCmd' => 'pages']),
    'iconIdentifier' => 'actions-system-cache-clear-impact-low'
]
