Shopware: Page object is null - php

Question

I created a new plugin, with a simple custom frontend route. The page object is null when printed, so the elements inside are gone. I know I can just pass it from the renderStorefront function as a second parameter, but don't know what to fill in it because usually it is filled automatically.
The controller php file customStatusController.php:
/**
* #Route("/custom-status", name="frontend.store.customplugin.custom-status", options={"seo"="false"}, methods={"GET"})
*/
public function index(): Response
return $this->renderStorefront('#Storefront/storefront/index.html.twig');
}
The view twig file index.html.twig:
{% sw_extends '#Storefront/storefront/page/content/index.html.twig' %}
{% block base_header_flyout %}
{{ dump(page) }}
{% endblock %}
How can I pass/inherit the page object that comes from the cms with all the child objects?

Answer 1

You need to inject theShopware\Storefront\Page\GenericPageLoader and then create a NavigationPage from it.
So something like should do the trick ( did not test it it ):
<?php
/**
* #var GenericPageLoader
*/
private $genericPageLoader;
....
public function __construct(GenericPageLoader $genericPageLoader)
{
$this->genericPageLoader = $genericPageLoader;
}
/**
* #Route("/custom-status", name="frontend.store.customplugin.custom-status", options={"seo"="false"}, methods={"GET"})
*/
public function index(Request $request, SalesChannelContext $context): Response
$page = $this->genericPageLoader->load($request, $context);
$page = NavigationPage::createFrom($page);
return $this->renderStorefront('#Storefront/storefront/index.html.twig',
[
'page' => $page,
]);
}
Then you should have at least the HeaderPagelet, FooterPagelet etc. within the $page variable.
You can also take a look at our Blog Plugin how we created the detail page with a custom Controller.
However: You also should ask yourself if a custom Controller is really needed, or if a CmsDataResolver / CMS Element would do the trick also which is way more flexible.
