[TYPO3-mvc] extbase way of accessing folder based file collection

[Frans Saris]

Hi Dominic,

could you try this:

/**
	 * @param $uid collection uid from flexform
	 *
	 * @return array|void
	 */
	protected function getFileCollectionItems($uid) {
		/** @var $fileCollection
\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Resource\**Collection\**AbstractFileCollection */
		$fileCollection = $this->fileCollectionRepository->findByUid($uid);
		$fileCollection->loadContents();
		$items = $fileCollection->getItems();

		foreach ($items as $item) {
			/** @var FileReference $item */
			$files[] = $item->toArray();
		}

		return $files;
	}



Before you can call getItem() you need to load the items loadContents().
This is for both collection types the sam.

so this will  not work:

	$fileCollection->loadContents();
	$items = $fileCollection->getItems();

	return $fileCollection->loadContents();


gr. Frans
