[TYPO3-dev] best practice for a new BE module with own section

[Falk Gebauer]

Hi Bernd,

I use the extbase extension utility and do something like this:


$mainModuleName = 'main_module_name';
if (!isset($TBE_MODULES[$mainModuleName])) {
     $temp_TBE_MODULES = array();
     foreach ($TBE_MODULES as $key => $val) {
         if ($key == 'web') {
             $temp_TBE_MODULES[$key] = $val;
             $temp_TBE_MODULES[$mainModuleName] = 'main_module_name';
         } else {
             $temp_TBE_MODULES[$key] = $val;
         }
     }
     $TBE_MODULES = $temp_TBE_MODULES;
});
\TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Utility\ExtensionUtility::registerModule(
     'Xxx.' . $_EXTKEY,
     'main_module_name',
     '',
     'after:web',
     array(
     ), array(
         'access' => 'user,group',
         'icon' => '',
         'labels' => 
'LLL:EXT:xxx/Resources/Private/Language/MainModule.xlf',
     )
);


// sub module
\TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Utility\ExtensionUtility::registerModule(
     'Xxx.' . $_EXTKEY,
     'main_module_name',
     'sub_module_name',
     'bottom',
     array(
         'Controller1' => 'list, upload, search',
     ), array(
         'access' => 'user,group',
         'icon' => 'EXT:xxx/ext_icon.gif',
         'labels' => 'LLL:EXT:xxx/Resources/Private/Language/SubModule.xlf',
     )
);
