[TYPO3-dev] Possible RFC : Introducing LOOP cObject

Mon Jan 31 15:51:19 CET 2011

Hi again,

Here is a complete example of use (as seen in the BT):

in pi1/class.tx_yourext_pi1.php, method main():

$myData = array();
$myData[] = array('lastname' => 'Hader', 'firstname' => 'Oliver');
$myData[] = array('lastname' => 'Kamper', 'firstname' => 'Steffen');
$myData[] = array('lastname' => 'Baschny', 'firstname' => 'Ernesto');
$myData[] = array('lastname' => 'Perseguers', 'firstname' => 'Xavier');

$this->cObj->start($myData);
return $this->cObj->cObjGetSingle(
     $this->conf['persons'],
     $this->conf['persons.']
);

in res/template.html:

<html>
<head>
     <title></title>
</head>
<body>

<!-- ###PERSONS### [begin] -->

<table>
     <thead>
         <tr>
             <th>###HEADER_FIRSTNAME###</th>
             <th>###HEADER_LASTNAME###</th>
         </tr>
     </thead>
     <tbody>
         <!-- ###PERSON### [begin] -->
         <tr>
             <td>###FIRSTNAME###</td>
             <td>###LASTNAME###</td>
         </tr>
         <!-- ###PERSON### [end] -->
     </tbody>
</table>

<!-- ###PERSONS### [end] -->

</body>
</html>

TypoScript:

plugin.tx_yourext_pi1.persons = TEMPLATE
plugin.tx_yourext_pi1.persons {
     template = FILE
     template.file = EXT:your_ext/res/template.html
     workOnSubpart = PERSONS

     marks {
         HEADER_FIRSTNAME = TEXT
         HEADER_FIRSTNAME.value = First Name
         HEADER_LASTNAME = TEXT
         HEADER_LASTNAME.value = Last Name
     }
     subparts.PERSON = LOOP
     subparts.PERSON.renderObj = TEMPLATE
     subparts.PERSON.renderObj.template < .template
     subparts.PERSON.renderObj {
         workOnSubpart = PERSON

         marks {
             FIRSTNAME = TEXT
             FIRSTNAME.field = firstname
             LASTNAME = TEXT
             LASTNAME.field = lastname
         }
     }
}
