TYPO3 Core

While this sounds cool, do you have a use-case ready to test already for the new hook?

And speaking of "hooks", isn't the modern way of dealing with hooks to have an interface people can implement in order to maintain a certain signature for the hooks?

got a usecase but not ready to be public.

it is a new implementation of rgmediaimages which shows videos inside "text w image".

I am writing a new fal driver to deal with virtual files which are e.g. links to youtube. an editor can then add those files to the content element (this works already kind of) and now I need to deal with the output.

current class looks like this

<?php

class Tx_Falvirtual_Hooks_CssStyledContentController {

    /** @var TYPO3\CMS\CssStyledContent\Controller\CssStyledContentController */
    protected $parentObject;

    public function render($arguments, TYPO3\CMS\CssStyledContent\Controller\CssStyledContentController $parentObject) {
        $this->parentObject = $parentObject;
        $out = '';

        if (\TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\MathUtility::canBeInterpretedAsInteger($arguments['file'])) {

            $sysFile = $GLOBALS['TYPO3_DB']->exec_SELECTgetSingleRow('*', 'sys_file', 'uid=' . (int)$arguments['file']);
            $storage = $GLOBALS['TYPO3_DB']->exec_SELECTgetSingleRow('*', 'sys_file_storage', 'driver="falvirtual" AND uid=' . (int)$sysFile['storage']);

            if (!is_array($storage)) {
                return $out;
            }

            /** @var $configuration \GeorgRinger\Falvirtual\Domain\Model\Dto\Configuration */
            $configuration = \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\GeneralUtility::makeInstance('GeorgRinger\\Falvirtual\\Domain\\Model\\Dto\Configuration');
            $configuration->setSysFile($sysFile);

            $this->getDimensions($configuration, $arguments['imageConfiguration']);

            // @todo implement factory
            /** @var $api \GeorgRinger\Falvirtual\Api\Youtube */
            $api = \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\GeneralUtility::makeInstance('GeorgRinger\\Falvirtual\\Api\\Youtube');
            $out = $api->render($configuration);
        }

        return $out;
    }

    /**
     * Set the correct maximum dimensions to the configuration dto
     *
     * @param \GeorgRinger\Falvirtual\Domain\Model\Dto\Configuration $configuration
     * @param array $ts
     * @return void
     */
    protected function getDimensions(\GeorgRinger\Falvirtual\Domain\Model\Dto\Configuration &$configuration, array $ts) {
        unset($ts['file.']['import.']);
        $ts['file'] = 'EXT:falvirtual/Resources/Public/Images/dummy.png';
        list($width, $height) = getimagesize($this->parentObject->cObj->IMG_RESOURCE($ts));

        $configuration->setWidth($width);
        $configuration->setHeight($height);
    }
}

interfaces got also their drawbacks but I am open to those too. I can also use signalslots ;)

Sounds cool, Georg. Maybe SignalSlot is the way to go, as also other FAL activities already use this pattern. I am not sure yet if a connected slot is allowed to modify the incoming parameters, as it doesn't seem to be able to return any value to the signalling instance. I cannot find any documentation in this regard, do you know it?

Don't know it either
