Objects rendering content

• IMAGE for the rendering of an image:

  lib.logo = IMAGE
  lib.logo {
    file = fileadmin/logo.gif
    file.width = 200
    stdWrap.typolink.parameter = 1
  }
  

  Copied!

  The result is an image based on file logo.gif with width of 200 pixels and a link to the page 1.

• TEXT is for the rendering of standard text or the content of fields:

  lib.slogan = TEXT
  lib.slogan.value = Inspiring people to share
  lib.slogan.wrap = <div class="highlight">|</div>
  

  Copied!

• FILES is used to retrieve information about one or more files and perform some rendering with it:

  lib.banner = FILES
  lib.banner {
    references {
      table = pages
      fieldName = media
      uid.data = page:uid
    }
    renderObj = IMAGE
    renderObj {
      file.import.data = file:current:uid
      file.treatIdAsReference = 1
      file.width = 500
      wrap = <div class="banner">|</div>
    }
  }
  

  Copied!

  This code will probably look pretty abstract to you right now. What it does is to reference the images that were related to a given page in the "media" field. It takes each of these images and resizes them to a maximum width of 500 pixels. Each image is wrapped in a <div> tag.
