[TYPO3-mvc] Re: Get RepositoryName from ModelName

[Philipp]

Didnt find any method, so i wrote this workaround.


	

	
	/**
	 * Get an object by uid
	 * @param int $uid The uid
	 * @param string $object The objectName
	 * @return mixed Object from class of $object | NULL if not found
	 */
	protected function getPersistentObject($uid,$object) {
		if (class_exists($object)) {
			$repositoryName = str_replace('Model','Repository',$object).'Repository';
			if (class_exists($repositoryName)) {
				/* @var $repository \TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Persistence\Repository */
				$repository = $this->objectManager->get($repositoryName);
				return $repository->findByUid($uid);
			}
		}
		return NULL;
	}

You can call it like this in your controller
$something = $this->getPersistentObject(someParam,'Vendor\\ExtensionName\\Domain\\Model\\SomeObject');
Not really the big deal but avoids much typing.
