Create a backend module with Extbase according to documents leads to exception
0%
Description
Following instructions on: https://docs.typo3.org/m/typo3/reference-coreapi/main/en-us/ExtensionArchitecture/HowTo/BackendModule/CreateModuleWithExtbase.html#backend-modules-template
A simple backend controller action in TYPO3 13.4.0 leads to:
Call to undefined method TYPO3\CMS\Backend\Template\ModuleTemplate::setContent()
The example controller in my case would look like:
<?php
declare(strict_types=1);
namespace In2code\Lux\Controller;
use TYPO3\CMS\Backend\Attribute\AsController;
use TYPO3\CMS\Backend\Template\ModuleTemplateFactory;
use TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Mvc\Controller\ActionController;
#[AsController]
final class AnalysisController extends ActionController
{
public function __construct(
protected readonly ModuleTemplateFactory $moduleTemplateFactory,
) {
}
public function dashboardAction(): ResponseInterface
{
$this->view->assign('someVar', 'someContent');
$moduleTemplate = $this->moduleTemplateFactory->create($this->request);
// Adding title, menus, buttons, etc. using $moduleTemplate ...
$moduleTemplate->setContent($this->view->render());
return $this->htmlResponse($moduleTemplate->renderContent());
}
}

Indeed this is missing in the docs. I've created an issue on the documentation tracker: https://github.com/TYPO3-Documentation/TYPO3CMS-Reference-CoreApi/issues/4962
The old moduleTemplate API has been removed: https://docs.typo3.org/c/typo3/cms-core/main/en-us/Changelog/12.0/Deprecation-96903-DeprecateOldModuleTemplateAPI.html
Most likely you should be able to use:
public function dashboardAction(): ResponseInterface
{
$moduleTemplate = $this->moduleTemplateFactory->create($this->request);
$moduleTemplate->assign('someVar', 'someContent');
return $moduleTemplate->renderResponse('MyTemplate');
}
with an accompanying Layout file as outlined in https://docs.typo3.org/c/typo3/cms-core/main/en-us/Changelog/12.0/Feature-96730-SimplifiedExtbackendModuleTemplateAPI.html
HTH!
