TYPO3 extension bw_jsoneditor

Integrates the svelte-jsoneditor into the TYPO3 Backend.

Installation

Composer

composer require blueways/bw-jsoneditor

TER

Download the zip file from TYPO3 extension repository (TER).

Usage

The extension adds a new custom input with renderType jsonEditor. You can use the new type in TCA or Content Blocks.

TCA

When adding a new field to your TCA, use the type user and the renderType jsonEditor:

ExtensionManagementUtility::addTCAcolumns('my_table', [ 'new_field' => [ 'label' => 'My JSON Field', 'config' => [ 'type' => 'user', 'renderType' => 'jsonEditor', ], ], ]);

Make sure the database column of your field is large enough:

-- ext_tables.sql CREATE TABLE my_table ( new_field text );

Content Blocks

You can use the new renderType in Content Blocks by adding the following configuration:

fields: - identifier: new_field label: 'My JSON Field' type: Textarea renderType: jsonEditor

Configuration

You can configure the JSON Editor with the offical API by adding the settings to the options array:

$GLOBALS['TCA']['my_table']['columns']['my_field']['config']['options'] = [ 'mode' => 'tree' ];

The new option height controls the maximum height of the editor, it defaults to auto. Setting a value in pixels will set a fixed height to the editor.
