Number

New in version 12.0: The TCA type number has been introduced. It replaces the eval=int and eval=double2 options of TCA type input.

The TCA type number should be used to input values representing numbers.

Note

The slider option allows to define a visual slider element, next to the input field. The steps can be defined with the slider[step] option. The minimum and maximum value can be configured with the range[lower] and range[upper] options.

Migration

Migration from eval='int'

The migration from eval='int' to type=number is done like following:

// Before

'int_field' => [
    'label' => 'Int field',
    'config' => [
        'type' => 'input',
        'eval' => 'int',
    ]
]

// After

'int_field' => [
    'label' => 'Int field',
    'config' => [
        'type' => 'number',
    ]
]

Migration from eval='double2'

The migration from eval=double2 to type=number is done like following:

// Before

'double2_field' => [
    'label' => 'double2 field',
    'config' => [
        'type' => 'input',
        'eval' => 'double2',
    ]
]

// After

'double2_field' => [
    'label' => 'double2 field',
    'config' => [
        'type' => 'number',
        'format' => 'decimal'
    ]
]

An automatic TCA migration is performed on the fly, migrating all occurrences to the new TCA type and triggering a PHP E_USER_DEPRECATED error where code adoption has to take place.
