This extension provides basic typoscript configuration for rendering content or pages with fluid.

Features

• Improved lib.contentElement object
• Lib to render content of a specific colPos
• Lib to render content of defined pages and colPos

Usage

Include files

To use the configurations, just import them separately from the configuration folder or import the setup.typoscript file.

@import 'EXT:frontendrendering/Configuration/TypoScript/Lib/lib.contentElement.typoscript'
@import 'EXT:frontendrendering/Configuration/TypoScript/Lib/lib.fluidPage.typoscript'
@import 'EXT:frontendrendering/Configuration/TypoScript/Lib/lib.renderContent.typoscript'
@import 'EXT:frontendrendering/Configuration/TypoScript/Lib/lib.renderContentFromPid.typoscript'

OR

@import 'EXT:frontendrendering/Configuration/TypoScript/setup.typoscript'

Usage for PAGE object

The lib sets the template name depending on the backend layout without the prefixed pagets__. To activate a custom config this could look like this:

page = PAGE
page {
    10 = CASE
    10 {
        key.data = pagelayout
        default =< lib.fluidPage
        pagets__newspage =< lib.fluidPage--news
    }
}

Usage for content elements

The lib.contentElement is referenced to the tt_content.default already in core, so we only change some more stuff. The template name gets set to the value of the CType field.
The lib lib.renderContent provides a cObject to render content of a specific colPos with a slide option upwards the page tree.

<f:cObject data="{colPos: 1}" typoscriptObjectPath="lib.renderContent"/>
<f:cObject data="{colPos: 1, slide: 1}" typoscriptObjectPath="lib.renderContent"/>

To render content from a specific page and colPos the lib.renderContentFromPid is the perfect fit.

<f:cObject data="{pidInList: 1, colPos: 1}" typoscriptObjectPath="lib.renderContentFromPid"/>
<f:cObject data="{pidInList: '1,2,3', colPos: 1, slide: 1}" typoscriptObjectPath="lib.renderContentFromPid"/>
