ModifyAutoCreateRedirectRecordBeforePersistingEvent

New in version 12.3.

The PSR-14 event \TYPO3\CMS\Redirects\Event\ModifyAutoCreateRedirectRecordBeforePersistingEvent allows extensions to modify the redirect record before it is persisted to the database. This can be used to change values according to circumstances, such as different sub-tree settings that are not covered by the Core site configuration. Another use case could be to write data to additional sys_redirect columns added by a custom extension for later use.

Note

To handle 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 in the extension's Services.yaml:

EXT:my_extension/Configuration/Services.yaml

services:
  # Place here the default dependency injection configuration

  MyVendor\MyExtension\Redirects\EventListener\MyEventListener:
    tags:
      - name: event.listener
        identifier: 'my-extension/modify-auto-create-redirect-record-before-persisting'

Read how to configure dependency injection in extensions.

The corresponding event listener class:

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

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace MyVendor\MyExtension\Redirects\EventListener;

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

final class MyEventListener
{
    public function __invoke(
        ModifyAutoCreateRedirectRecordBeforePersistingEvent $event
    ): void {
        // Only work on plain slug replacement redirect sources.
        if (!($event->getSource() instanceof PlainSlugReplacementRedirectSource)) {
            return;
        }

        // Get prepared redirect record and change some values
        $record = $event->getRedirectRecord();

        // Override the status code, eventually to another value than
        // configured in the site configuration
        $record['status_code'] = 307;

        // Set value to a field extended by a custom extension, to persist
        // additional data to the redirect record.
        $record['custom_field_added_by_a_extension']
            = 'page_' . $event->getSlugRedirectChangeItem()->getPageId();

        // Update changed record in event to ensure changed values are saved.
        $event->setRedirectRecord($record);
    }
}

class TYPO3\CMS\Redirects\Event\ModifyAutoCreateRedirectRecordBeforePersistingEvent

This event is fired in the TYPO3CMSRedirectsServiceSlugService before a redirect record is persisted for changed page slug.
