README

Adds commands for dealing with XML data. For now, parts of the Object tree can be exported recursively, retaining the hierarchy.

Exports can be triggered by a console command and written to stdout, a file or an pimcore asset.

If enabled, exports can be made available via a REST API, too.

Requirements

• PHP >= 7.1
• Pimcore >= 5.0.0
• XSL PHP extension for --xslt option support

Installation

1. Install the bundle using composer composer require basilicom/xml-tool-bundle dev-master.
2. Execute bin/console pimcore:bundle:enable BasilicomXmlToolBundle

Configuration

n/a

Console Usage

Use the export command to export command to export the Object tree, example for path /foo:

    bin/console basilicom:xmltool:export /foo

Example output:

Note: The Object tree /foo contains in the example a single Object of the Object Class Bar with a single Input property of name.

Exporting tree of Objects starting at /foo
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<root id="1" type="folder" key="" class="Folder">
  <:children>
    <Bar id="4" type="object" key="baaaar" class="Bar">
      <name><![CDATA[bar]]></name>
    </Bar>
  </:children>
</root>

Complex example:

• do not export the attributes / fields of objects attached via relations
• export variants of objects, too
• change the name of the root node to 'Products'
• apply a sample xslt
• export to a pimcore asset /output/my-export.xml

./bin/console basilicom:xmltool:export --omit-relation-object-fields --include-variants --root=products --asset=/output/my-export.xml --xslt sample.xsl /exp

Sample XSLT:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<xsl:stylesheet version="1.0"
                xmlns:xsl="http://www.w3.org/1999/XSL/Transform">

  <xsl:template match="/">
    <objects>
    <xsl:for-each select="//Leaf">
      <object>
        <name><xsl:value-of select="name"/></name>
      </object>
    </xsl:for-each>
    </objects>
  </xsl:template>
</xsl:stylesheet>

For all options (writing to a file, etc.), see:

    bin/console basilicom:xmltool:export --help

Usage: REST API

In order to enable the REST API, place a configuration file in app/config/local/xmltool.yml:

basilicom_xml_tool:
  api:
    enabled: true
    endpoints:
      test1:
        token: secrettoken0815
        root: Products # Root name of the exported XML file
        path: /export/products # Path to the exporting objects
        xslt: ../sample.xsl
        include_variants: true
        omit_relation_object_fields: true
      test2:
        path: /sample/obj/path

This example enables two endpoint URLs:

• https://PIMCORE-SERVER/xml-tool/export/test1?token=secrettoken0815
• https://PIMCORE-SERVER/xml-tool/export/test2

Limitations

Only a few field types are supported for now:

• input
• select
• wysiwyg
• textarea
• date
• datetime
• ManyToManyObjectRelation
• color
• rgbaColor
• localizedFields

To extend the supported types, implement a getForType* method in Service/Xml.php.
