ViewHelpers

General

Add the fluid namespace declaration to fluid templates

Before version 0.1.5 registering of the global viewhelper namespace ai was not working.

Even if you use a version >= 0.1.5 you might still want to add this namespace declaration to your templates and partials:

<html xmlns:ai="C1\AdaptiveImages\ViewHelpers"
      xmlns:f="http://typo3.org/ns/TYPO3/CMS/Fluid/ViewHelpers"
      data-namespace-typo3-fluid="true">
   ...
</html>

ai:getCropVariants

Returns a CropVariantCollection as array of cropVariants this FileReference has.

Arguments

argument required default Description
file yes   FileReference to get the cropVariants from.
asString no false Return the result as string (instaed array)

Examples

<ai:getCropVariants file="{file}" />

will return (if the FileReference has two cropVariants):

array(2 items)
   default => array(7 items)
      id => 'default' (7 chars)
      title => '' (0 chars)
      cropArea => array(4 items)
         x => 0 (double)
         y => 0.09925 (double)
         width => 0.999 (double)
         height => 0.8991 (double)
      allowedAspectRatios => array(empty)
      selectedRatio => NULL
      focusArea => array(4 items)
         x => 0.33333333333333 (double)
         y => 0.33333333333333 (double)
         width => 0.33333333333333 (double)
         height => 0.33333333333333 (double)
      coverAreas => NULL
   mobile => array(7 items)

ai:getSrcSet

Get a srcset string for a given cropVariant and widths and generate images for srcset candidates

Arguments

argument required Default Description
file yes   FileReference to use
cropVariant no default select a cropping variant, in case multiple croppings have been specified or stored in FileReference
widths no [320,640,1024,1440,1920] create srcset candidates with these widths
debug no 0 Add debug output (width, height, ratio) to the generated images

Examples

<ai:getCropVariants file="{file}" />

returns

/fileadmin/_processed_/7/9/image_2269306f6a.jpg 360w,/fileadmin/_processed_/7/9/image_5f0de63291.jpg 720w

or for cropVariant mobile and widths as array

<ai:getSrcset file="{file}" cropVariant="mobile" widths="[360,720]" debug="1" />

returns

/fileadmin/_processed_/7/9/image_cbb4289869.jpg 0w,/fileadmin/_processed_/7/9/image_3e7a2d9258.jpg 720w

ai:ratioBox

Wraps an image or picture tag in a ratio box. This also adds generated css style to the header of the page to set the correct padding-bottom to always maintain the ratio and thus prevent page reflows.

Arguments

argument required Default Description
file yes   FileReference to use
mediaQueries no [[‘default’ => ‘’]] Array of arrays containing ratio and media for cropVariants

Examples

<ai:ratioBox file="{file}" mediaQueries="{mobile: '(max-width:767px)', default: ''}">
    <f:comment>Your picture/image tag (f:image, ai:image etc.)</f:comment>
</ai:ratioBox>

Assuming that the image has cropVariants default (16:9) and mobile (4:3) this will add css style to the head of the website and return:

<div class="rb rb--62dot5 rb--max-width767px-75">
  <f:comment>Your picture/image tag (f:image, ai:image etc.)</f:comment>
</div>

ai:placeholder.image

Returns a placeholder image (base64 encoded data OR uri) width reduced quality and size, but original aspect ratio.

Arguments

argument required Default Description
file yes   FileReference to use
cropVariant no default select a cropping variant, in case multiple croppings have been specified or stored in FileReference
width no 128 create placeholder image with this width
height no   create placeholder image with this height
absolute no false Force absolute URL
dataUri no true Returns the base64 encoded dataUri of the image (for inline usage)

Examples

<ai:placeholder.image file="{file}" cropVariant="mobile" width="192" />

returns the images as base64 encoded data-uri

data:image/jpeg;base64,/9j/4AAQSkZJ[...]

or return image uri instead:

<ai:placeholder.image file="{file}" cropVariant="mobile" width="192" dataUri="0" />

returns

/fileadmin/_processed_/7/9/image_702e24791e.jpg

ai:placeholder.svg

Returns a placeholder SVG image (base64 encoded data uri) keeping original aspect ratio by replacing the SVG’s width/and height of that of the generated image.

Arguments

argument required Default Description
file yes   FileReference to use
cropVariant no default select a cropping variant, in case multiple croppings have been specified or stored in FileReference

Examples

<ai:placeholder.svg file="{file}" cropVariant="mobile"/>

returns the SVG as base64 encoded data-uri

data:image/svg+xml;base64,PHN2ZyB4bWxucz0naHR0[...]

ai:image

This viewHelper outputs a complete adaptive image img tag, optionally with ratio box and a placeholder image. Use this when you don’t need art direction/different cropVariants. If you need art direction see ai:picture.

Arguments

This viewHelper has all arguments which are available to the f:image viewHelper including fluids universal tag attributes plus the following:

argument required Default Description
lazy no false lazy load images and auto-sizes with lazysizes.js
debug no false Add debug output (width, height, ratio) to the generated images using IM/GM
jsdebug no false Add debug output (width, height, ratio) near the image using javascript
srcsetWidths no [320,640,1024,1440,1920] create srcset candidates with these widths
cropVariant no default select a cropping variant, in case multiple croppings have been specified or stored in FileReference
sizes no 100vw sizes attribute for the img tag. Takes precedence over additionalAttributes[“sizes”] if both are given.
placeholderInline no true Include placeholder inline in HTML (base64 encoded)
ratiobox no false The image is wrapped in a ratio box if true.

Examples

<ai:image image="{file}"
      class="img-responsive lazyload"
      width="{dimensions.width}"
      height="{dimensions.height}"
      alt="{file.alternative}"
      title="{file.title}"
      srcsetWidths="320,640"
      placeholderInline="1"
      placeholderWidth="128"
      lazy="1"
      debug="1"
      ratiobox="1"
      jsdebug="1"
      sizes="100vw"
/>

returns a complete image tag with lazysizes loading and a placeholder image. Important For lazysizes to work you have to add the class lazyload here.

ai:picture

This viewHelper outputs a complete adaptive image picture tag, optionally with ratio box and a placeholder image. If you need to show different cropVariants for different device widths you need to use this viewHelper.

Arguments

This viewHelper has all arguments which are available to the f:image viewHelper including fluids universal tag attributes plus the following:

argument required Default Description
lazy no false lazy load images and auto-sizes with lazysizes.js
debug no false Add debug output (width, height, ratio) to the generated images using IM/GM

sources no [[‘default’ => ‘’]] Array of arrays containing candidates for source tags

        height="{dimensions.height}"
        alt="{file.alternative}"
        title="{file.title}"
        sources="{
            'mobile': {
                'srcsetWidths': '320,640,768',

            }
          }"

        jsdebug="1"
