[TYPO3-dev] How to get the extension typoscript configuration inside an eID script?

[Peter Klein]

If you don't need a full TSFE and only need to access some config 
vars/options, then you can do something like this:

/* Classes required for creating a tmpl object */
require_once(PATH_t3lib."class.t3lib_extobjbase.php");
require_once(PATH_t3lib."class.t3lib_tsparser_ext.php");
require_once(PATH_t3lib."class.t3lib_page.php");

    $pageId = <SET THIS TO THE ID OF THE CURRENT PAGE>;

   $tmpl = t3lib_div::makeInstance("t3lib_tsparser_ext");
   $tmpl->tt_track = 0; // Do not log time-performance information
   $tmpl->init();
   // Gets the rootLine
   $sys_page = t3lib_div::makeInstance("t3lib_pageSelect");
   $rootLine = $sys_page->getRootLine($pageId);
   // This generates the constants/config + hierarchy info for the template.
   $tmpl->runThroughTemplates($rootLine,0);
   $tmpl->generateConfig();

    // Example: Get the TS config for the tt_news plugin
   $ttnewsConf = $tmpl->setup['plugin.']['tt_news.'];
