Description

After reading data-type-gettext-file I was wondering, what file:ID:contents should do?

uid:46 is a valid image file.

page >
page = PAGE
page.10 = TEXT
page.10.data = file:46:contents

and

page >
page = PAGE
page.10 = FILES
page.10 {
  files = 46

  renderObj = TEXT
  renderObj.data = file:current:contents
}

gives me the following output.

<?xpacket begin="" id="W5M0MpCehiHzreSzNTczkc9d"?>
   <x:xmpmeta xmlns:x="adobe:ns:meta/" x:xmptk="XMP Core 5.1.2">
      <rdf:RDF xmlns:rdf="http://www.w3.org/1999/02/22-rdf-syntax-ns#">
      <rdf:Description rdf:about=""/>
      </rdf:RDF>
   </x:xmpmeta>
<?xpacket end="w"?>

All other properties works correctly: name, size, sha1, extension, mime_types, publicUrl, localPath

Mah, sorry for the title. Should be: What does file:uid:contents do?

The "contents" property returns the actual contents of the file... Thus, internally file_get_contents() is called.
The XML/RDF you posted in your initial bug reports seems to be the data/contents of the file you uploaded.

Do you think documentation needs to be more specific on that?
I'm looking forward to your suggestion. Thanks in advance!

No, it is not the content of my file. As I said: The file uid:46 is a valid image file. Works correctly with IMAGE, GIFBUILDER.

page >
page = PAGE
page.10 = TEXT
page.10.data = file:46:contents

page.30 = FILES
page.30 {
  files = 46

  renderObj = TEXT
  renderObj.data = file:current:contents
}

This gives me the XML/RDF-Output again, but only once!

Than I tried this:

page >
page = PAGE
page.10 = TEXT
page.10.data = file:46:name

page.30 = FILES
page.30 {
  files = 46

  renderObj = TEXT
  renderObj.data = file:current:name
}

This gives me the folloing output:

thefilename.jpgthefilename.jpg

This behavoiur exits on every image- and arbitrary binary-file that was tested. The XML/RDF-output is printed only once.

I tried the same with a text-file (uid:53). The content is: foobar

page >
page = PAGE
page.10 = TEXT
page.10.data = file:46:contents

page.30 = FILES
page.30 {
  files = 46

  renderObj = TEXT
  renderObj.data = file:current:contents
}

The output is: foobarfoobar

Question: Is the something wrong about using image (binary)-files in file:current:contents?

Do you think documentation needs to be more specific on that?

Obviously not if contents is working correclty. :D

But if data-type-gettext-file contents is not working on binary files, it should be mentioned!

I tried your TypoScript on my local environment (PHP 5.3.28, latest Git master of the TYPO3 CMS core) but unfortunately could not reproduce (full TypoScript is attached)
Can you please provide more information on your setup and system (PHP version, TYPO3 version or Git commit hash, Windows/Linux/Mac, information about the storage)? Thanks in advance!

page >
page = PAGE
page.typeNum = 0

page.10 = TEXT
page.10.data = file:225:contents

page.15 = TEXT
page.15.value = ---

page.20 = FILES
page.20 {
  files = 225
  renderObj = TEXT
  renderObj.data = file:current:contents
}
