Hi folks
After we've searched for a long time for a possibility to execute custom scripts after an extension is installed, we've noticed the signal/slot mechanism of TYPO3. Unfortunately, there's very little documentation about this and almost no working implementations where TYPO3 developers can see what must be done to utilize this mechanism.
Why is this topic so interesting nevertheless? Well, it enables you to simplify tasks that have to be done by the user installing your extension otherwise. It's a great way to make installation and configuration of your extension as simple as possible and is a possibility to remove TYPO3's karma of being only for experts.
To distribute knowledge and enable others to improve their extensions as well, we've created a step by step tutorial how this needs to be implemented and what developers have to care about:
