how can I add an virtual column to the TCA (TYPO3 8)? I have in a 1:n table with data and I want to display the count of the data in the backend to current element.
I need something like this:
$fields = [
'counts7d' => [
'exclude' => false,
'label' => 'last 7 days',
'config' => [
'type' => 'none',
'procFunc' => '\Namespace\MyClass->MyMethod',
'readOnly' => true,
'params' => [
'period => '7d'
]
]
],
'counts30d' => [
'exclude' => false,
'label' => 'last 30 days',
'config' => [
'type' => 'none',
'procFunc' => '\Namespace\MyClass->MyMethod',
'readOnly' => true,
'params' => [
'period => '30d'
]
]
],
];
pseudo function:
public function myMethod($element, $params){
$sql = "SELECT count(*) FROM TABLE WHERE pid=$element[uid] and date > $params[period]";
return sql_count…
}
The field should only be informative for the backend users.
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks

The TCA field type user is exactly what you are looking for:
'counts7d' => [
'exclude' => false,
'label' => 'last 7 days',
'config' => [
'type' => 'user',
'userFunc' => \Namespace\MyClass::class . '->MyMethod',
'parameters' => [
'period => '7d',
],
],
],
The TCA field type none is exactly what you are looking for. Type none is the only type that does not necessarily need a database field. To manipulate it you can use userFunc which allow you to use custom php function.

i search for a Solution:
How can i add a Preview Image for a TCA type?
Example: I have 3 different types and would like to display a preview image for them. The same as the t3 backend layouts.
Just like the Backend-Layout:
Maybe there is a solution to this?
The documentation is explaining it:
https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/reference-tca/main/en-us/Columns/Examples.html#select-drop-down-for-records-represented-by-images
This is the example code:
[
'columns' => [
'select_single_12' => [
'label' => 'select_single_12 foreign_table selicon_field',
'config' => [
'type' => 'select',
'renderType' => 'selectSingle',
'foreign_table' => 'tx_styleguide_elements_select_single_12_foreign',
'fieldWizard' => [
'selectIcons' => [
'disabled' => false,
],
],
],
],
],
]
And the code for the field of the connected table is this:
[
'ctrl' => [
'title' => 'Form engine elements - select foreign single_12',
'label' => 'fal_1',
'selicon_field' => 'fal_1',
// ...
],
'columns' => [
// ...
'fal_1' => [
'label' => 'fal_1 selicon_field',
'config' => \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ExtensionManagementUtility::getFileFieldTCAConfig(
'fal_1',
[
'maxitems' => 1,
],
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SYS']['mediafile_ext']
),
],
],
// ...
];
As you have a strange label inside your field it's not clear if you want to link to an image, to a text or even to a field that offers a combination like it's done with relations to the table sys_file by the intermediate table sys_file_ref.
So defining more precise what you need exactly might help to give you a more detailed answer. You can edit your answer to add this description.
I have made a custom palette in tt_content.php and want to add it to all content elements on the appearance tab like this:
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ExtensionManagementUtility::addToAllTCAtypes(
'tt_content',
'--palette--;My Palette;my_palette',
'',
'before:sectionIndex'
);
This works for everything except Grid Elements (gridelements_pi1). How do I make the new palette show up on Grid Elements as well?
The comment from #MathiasBrodala lead me to finding the answer is in the order of extensions.
In this case I needed to add gridelements under suggests in my ext_emconf.php which ensures it will be loaded before my site package.
$EM_CONF[$_EXTKEY] = [
'title' => 'My Package',
'description' => 'TYPO3 Sitepackage',
'category' => 'templates',
'version' => '1.0.0',
'state' => 'stable',
'constraints' => [
'depends' => [
'typo3' => '8.7.0-9.5.99',
'fluid_styled_content' => '8.7.0-9.5.99'
],
'suggests' => [
'gridelements' => '9.3.0-0.0.0',
],
'conflicts' => [
],
],
'uploadfolder' => 0,
'createDirs' => '',
'clearCacheOnLoad' => 1
];
I would like to build a slider (Own Content Element). So on the backend i would like to have a section with multiple records. What do i mean? By clicking the "Create new" i would like to have an image selection and rich text selection.
Something like that.
How can i achieve this?
So far i have:
TCA/Overrides/tt_content.php
which gives me the rich editor and the image selection in backend, but not grouped.
$GLOBALS['TCA']['tt_content']['types']['my_slider'] = array( 'showitem' => '
--div--;LLL:EXT:core/Resources/Private/Language/Form/locallang_tabs.xlf:general,
--palette--;LLL:EXT:frontend/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_ttc.xlf:palette.general;general,
--palette--;LLL:EXT:frontend/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_ttc.xlf:palette.headers;headers,bodytext,assets;LLL:EXT:frontend/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_ttc.xlf:tabs.media,
',
'columnsOverrides' => [
'bodytext' => [
'config' => [
'enableRichtext' => true,
'richtextConfiguration' => 'default'
]
]
]
);
tt_content.typosript
tt_content {
my_slider < lib.contentElement
my_slider {
templateRootPaths.10 = {$Private}Templates/
templateName = Slider.html
dataProcessing {
10 = TYPO3\CMS\Frontend\DataProcessing\FilesProcessor
10 {
references.fieldName = assets
as = images
}
}
}
}
Slider.html
<html xmlns:f="http://typo3.org/ns/TYPO3/CMS/Fluid/ViewHelpers"
data-namespace-typo3-fluid="true">
<h1>{data.header}</h1>
<p>{data.bodytext}</p>
<f:for each="{images}" as="image">
<f:image image="{image}" alt="{file.properties.alt}" cropVariant="desktop"/>
{image.description}
</f:for>
<f:debug>{data}</f:debug>
</html>
Now with the current code i get the results in frontend. One Text and one Image. But how can i get it as group after configured it on the backend?
You need add new field to the sys_file_reference TCA:
Configuration/TCA/Overrides/sys_file_reference.php
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\ExtensionManagementUtility::addTCAcolumns(
'sys_file_reference',
[
'tx_myext_description' => [
'label' => 'My field description',
'config' => [
'type' => 'text',
'cols' => '80',
'rows' => '15',
'enableRichtext' => true,
'richtextConfiguration' => 'default'
]
],
]
);
ext_tables.sql
CREATE TABLE sys_file_reference (
tx_myext_description mediumtext,
);
Remember to add new field into database (using database compare tool in install tool).
Then use it in TCA of your new slider:
Configuration/TCA/Overrides/tt_content.php
$GLOBALS['TCA']['tt_content']['types']['my_slider'] = [
'showitem' => '
--div--;LLL:EXT:core/Resources/Private/Language/Form/locallang_tabs.xlf:general,
--palette--;LLL:EXT:frontend/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_ttc.xlf:palette.general;general,
--palette--;LLL:EXT:frontend/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_ttc.xlf:palette.headers;headers,bodytext,assets;LLL:EXT:frontend/Resources/Private/Language/locallang_ttc.xlf:tabs.media,
',
'columnsOverrides' => [
'bodytext' => [
'config' => [
'enableRichtext' => true,
'richtextConfiguration' => 'default'
]
],
'assets' => [
'config' => [
'overrideChildTca' => [
'types' => [
0 => ['showitem' => $GLOBALS['TCA']['sys_file_reference']['types'][0]['showitem'].',tx_myext_description'],
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Resource\File::FILETYPE_TEXT => [
'showitem' => $GLOBALS['TCA']['sys_file_reference']['types'][\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Resource\File::FILETYPE_TEXT]['showitem'].',tx_myext_description'
],
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Resource\File::FILETYPE_IMAGE => [
'showitem' => $GLOBALS['TCA']['sys_file_reference']['types'][\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Resource\File::FILETYPE_IMAGE]['showitem'].',tx_myext_description'
],
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Resource\File::FILETYPE_AUDIO => [
'showitem' => $GLOBALS['TCA']['sys_file_reference']['types'][\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Resource\File::FILETYPE_AUDIO]['showitem'].',tx_myext_description'
],
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Resource\File::FILETYPE_VIDEO => [
'showitem' => $GLOBALS['TCA']['sys_file_reference']['types'][\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Resource\File::FILETYPE_VIDEO]['showitem'].',tx_myext_description'
],
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Resource\File::FILETYPE_APPLICATION => [
'showitem' => $GLOBALS['TCA']['sys_file_reference']['types'][\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Resource\File::FILETYPE_APPLICATION]['showitem'].',tx_myext_description'
],
],
],
],
],
],
];
And then your Fluid template may look like that:
Slider.html
<html xmlns:f="http://typo3.org/ns/TYPO3/CMS/Fluid/ViewHelpers"
data-namespace-typo3-fluid="true">
<h1>{data.header}</h1>
<p>{data.bodytext}</p>
<f:for each="{images}" as="image">
<f:image image="{image}" alt="{file.properties.alt}" cropVariant="desktop"/>
{image.properties.tx_myext_description -> f:format.html()}
</f:for>
</html>
I am getting the error:
The input was not found in the haystack
After form post. Please see the selection tag code lines below:
// Add "roles" field
$this->add([
'type' => 'select',
'name' => 'roles',
'attributes' => [
'multiple' => 'multiple',
'options'=>$this->role_desc,
'inarrayvalidator' => false,
'class'=>'form-control'
],
'options' => [
'label' => 'Role(s)',
],
]);
// Add input for "roles" field
$inputFilter->add([
'class' => ArrayInput::class,
'name' => 'roles',
'required' => true,
'haystack'=>$this->role_ids,
'filters' => [
['name' => 'ToInt'],
],
'validators' => [
['name'=>'GreaterThan', 'options'=>['min'=>1]],
['name'=>'InArray', 'options'=>['haystack'=>$this-
>role_ids]]
],
]);
The InArray seems to be validating well, lm just no sure what is bringing up the exception. Thank you in advance.
Actually , your issue is similar to link
To solve this, change your validators definition to:
'validators' => [
['name'=>'GreaterThan', 'options'=>['min'=>1]],
[
'name' => 'Explode',
'options' => array(
'validator' => [
'name'=>'InArray',
'options'=> [
'haystack'=>$this->role_ids
]
]
)
]
],
Unfortunately, I do not think there is a "cleaner" way to do this.
Alternately, Maybe you could use the MultiCheckbox.
I have a moneyFieldset with 2 fields, amount and currency.
class MoneyFieldset ...
{
public function __construct($name = null, $options = array())
{
parent::__construct($name, $options);
$this->setHydrator(...);
$this->add(array(
'name' => 'currency',
'type' => 'select',
'options' => array(
'value_options' => \Core\Service\Money::getAvailableCurrencies(true),
),
'attributes' => array(
'value' => \Core\Service\Money::DEFAULT_CURRENCY,
),
));
$this->add(array(
'name' => 'amount',
'type' => 'text',
));
}
}
public function getInputFilterSpecification()
{
$default = [
'amount' => [
'required' => false,
'allow_empty' => true,
'filters' => [
['name' => AmountFilter::class]
],
'validators' => [
]
],
'currency' => [
'required' => false,
'allow_empty' => true,
'filters' => [
['name' => StringToUpper::class]
],
'validators' => [
]
]
];
return \Zend\Stdlib\ArrayUtils::merge($default, $this->filterSpec, true);
}
I'm using moneyFieldset in my other fieldsets like this:
// Price Field
$this->add(array(
'name' => 'price',
'type' => 'form.fieldset.moneyFieldset',
'attributes' => array(
'required' => true,
'invalidText' => 'Please type an amount'
),
'options' => array(
...
),
));
When I set filter like this:
function getInputFilterSpecification()
{
'price' => [
'required' => true,
'allow_empty' => false,
],
}
It's not working because price has 2 fields, so how can I say price[amount] and price[curreny] is required?
You can provide the input specifications for the nested fieldset (within the context of the form) using the following array structure.
public function getInputFilterSpecification()
{
return [
// ...
'price' => [
'type' => 'Zend\InputFilter\InputFilter',
'amount' => [
'required' => true,
],
'currency' => [
'required' => true,
]
],
//...
];
}
If you are dynamically modifying the values of the input filter it might be worth considering creating the validator using a service factory class and then attaching it to a form using the object API rather than arrays.
As I said in #AlexP's comment, a field, or a group of field declared as Required like this :
function getInputFilterSpecification()
{
'price' => [
'required' => true,
'allow_empty' => false,
],
}
Not means that it will be print an html like this :
<input type="text" required="required"/>
It just check when you'll do $form->isValid() if your fields are empty and required or other checks.
To achieve that, you just have to set in attributes that you want to require those fields. As you already did. Attributes can add, same as class attribute, html code to an input.
P.S : AlexP's answer is the best answer I just give more info about it.
