Description

Currently the the fileCollection types are hardcoded. It is not possible to add your own types.

You can extend the TCA so you can create you own collections in the backend. But in the RecourceFactory the conversion from type to object is hardcoded.

This should be changed so the class belonging to a type is fetched from configuration.

Proposal for the configuration:

$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SC_OPTIONS']['collections']['file']['types']['static'] = 'TYPO3\\CMS\\Core\\Resource\\Collection\\StaticFileCollection';
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SC_OPTIONS']['collections']['file']['types']['folder'] = 'TYPO3\\CMS\\Core\\Resource\\Collection\\FolderBasedFileCollection';
$GLOBALS['TYPO3_CONF_VARS']['SC_OPTIONS']['collections']['file']['types']['category'] = 'TYPO3\\CMS\\Core\\Resource\\Collection\\CategoryBasedFileCollection';

This gives the possibility to create your own collections types for example:

recursive folder collection
collection based on file type,size,creationdate,etc.
recreate the DAM selections

To test the pending patch:

Add following to you ext_tables.php


/** @var $registry TYPO3\CMS\Core\Resource\Collection\FileCollectionRegistry */
$registry = \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\GeneralUtility::makeInstance('TYPO3\\CMS\\Core\\Resource\\Collection\\FileCollectionRegistry');
$registry->addTypeToTCA('mediaAlbum', 'MediaAlbum', 'storage,folder');

And this to ext_localconf.php

/** @var $registry TYPO3\CMS\Core\Resource\Collection\FileCollectionRegistry */
$registry = \TYPO3\CMS\Core\Utility\GeneralUtility::makeInstance('TYPO3\\CMS\\Core\\Resource\\Collection\\FileCollectionRegistry');
$registry->registerFileCollectionClass('TYPO3\\CMS\\Core\\Resource\\Collection\\FolderBasedFileCollection', 'mediaAlbum');

Now you should have a extra type when creating/editing the collection types that behaves just like the folder collection
