Advanced routing configuration

Since TYPO3 v9 introduced native routing to the Core, it is possible to define route enhancers of various types. These route enhancers transform ugly URL's into nice readable.

An example of the route enhancer definition for the Gallery List plugin is stored in the extension itself.

bm_image_gallery/Configuration/Routes/List.yaml 
routeEnhancers:
  GalleryPlugin:
    aspects:
      gallery_name:
        type: PersistedAliasMapper
        tableName: sys_file_collection
        routeFieldName: bm_image_gallery_path_segment
      localized_gallery:
        type: LocaleModifier
        default: 'gallery'
        localeMap:
          -
            locale: 'de_*'
            value: 'galerie'
    defaultController: 'Gallery::list'
    extension: BmImageGallery
    plugin: GalleryList
    routes:
      -
        routePath: '/{localized_gallery}/{gallery_name}'
        _controller: 'Gallery::detail'
        _arguments:
          gallery_name: show
    type: Extbase
