[TYPO3] SOLVED: t3lib_TCEmain hook processCmdmap_postProcess

[Sander van Gelderen]

Hi All,

I guess this was a tough one, it has cost me until now to find out the 
solution. Credit goes to Peter Bartels.

I share it here so others might profit:

I was using the wrong hook! In stead of using processCmdmap_postProcess 
I should have been using processDatamap_afterDatabaseOperations.

For completeness, here is my code:


<?php
/**
  * Class being included by TCEmain using a hook
  *
  * @author	Sander van Gelderen <mail at sandervangelderen.nl>
  */
class tx_svgfoobar_tcemain {
	
	var $debug = TRUE;

	/**
	 * This method is called by a hook in the TYPO3 Core Engine (TCEmain).
	 *
	 * @param	string		$command: The TCEmain operation status, fx. 'update'
	 * @param	string		$table: The table TCEmain is currently processing
	 * @param	string		$id: The records id (if any)
	 * @param	array			$value: The field names and their values to be processed
	 * @param	object		$reference: Reference to the parent object (TCEmain)
	 * @return	void
	 * @access	public
	 */
	
    function processDatamap_afterDatabaseOperations ($status, $table, 
$id, $fieldArray, &$reference) {
		if ($this->debug) t3lib_div::devLog 
('processDatamap_afterDatabaseOperations', 'svgfoobar', 0, 
array($status, $table, $id, $fieldArray, &$reference));
		if ($status == 'update' && $table == 'tx_svgfoobar_request') {
			
			//print_r("id = $id");
			//var_dump($reference);
			//die();
			
			
			//TODO get folder pids from TS
			
			$requestUid = intval($id);
			$moderate = $fieldArray["moderate"];
			$targetFolder = '';
			
			switch ($moderate) {
				case "0":
					// 31 "not yet reviewed"
					$targetFolder = 31;
					break;
				case "1":
					// 33 "approved"
					$targetFolder = 33;
					break;
				case "2":
					// 32 "rejected"
					$targetFolder = 32;
					break;
			}
			
			$cmd['tx_svgfoobar_request'][$requestUid]['move'] = $targetFolder;
			
			$tce = t3lib_div::makeInstance('t3lib_TCEmain');
			$tce->stripslashes_values=0;
			$tce->start(array(),$cmd);
			$tce->process_cmdmap();
			
		}
	}	

}

if (defined('TYPO3_MODE') && 
$TYPO3_CONF_VARS[TYPO3_MODE]['XCLASS']['ext/templavoila/class.tx_svgfoobar_tcemain.php']) 
    {
 
include_once($TYPO3_CONF_VARS[TYPO3_MODE]['XCLASS']['ext/templavoila/class.tx_svgfoobar_tcemain.php']);
}

?>
