[TYPO3-mvc] Create a link in backend to a frontend page/extension/plugin

[Jahnke Consulting (JaCons)]

Hi all,

I created a scheduler task which sends emails to page creators with some analytical information about the contents. I would like to add a link to the appropriate frontend page and possibly directly to an extension/plugin.

To create the email content, I use a fluid standalone view. As this runs in Backend environment, how can I create a link to the Frontend page? I started looking into the uri.page ViewHelper, which I could easily extend. Instead of using the build method of the uriBuilder I tried the buildFrontendUri directly. Unfortunately, this seems to rely on the fact, that it is called from the FE environment. When I got an error in ContentObjectRenderer class, I stopped this approach.

 I am using T3 6.2 so far. Migration to 7.6 is planned, but would that change anything in this case?

Do you have any hints for me how to proceed?

Thanks!
