TYPO3 Extension Meta-Manifest
Goals
- declare additional information about extension/package
- to be used by machines (the TYPO3 core system)
- (a bit like substititon for
ext_emconf.php)
- e.g. in content-security-policy
- e.g. for extension-key mapping
- e.g. for caching behavior
- to be used by humans (to spot capabilities/features/behavior)
- e.g. for searching matching extensions in TER
- e.g. for searching extensions "having a backend module" (which is a capability)
- most probably included into
composer.json
Inspiration
Draft, integrated to composer.json extra section
