Description

I configured the route of an extension's single page in my config.yaml of the site management with the help of the PersistedPatternMapper:

routeEnhancers:
Person:
type: Extbase
limitToPages: [67]
extension: Person
plugin: Pi1
routes:
- { routePath: '/{name}', _controller: 'Person::show', _arguments: {'name': 'person'} }
aspects:
name:
type: PersistedPatternMapper
tableName: 'tx_person_domain_model_person'
routeFieldPattern: '^(?P<given_name>.+)-(?P<last_name>.+)$'
routeFieldResult: '{given_name}-{last_name}'

I am facing now two problems:

  • In the generated URL for the single page the result ({given_name}-{last_name}) is not in lower case like the other parts of the slug (the result is e.g. "John-Doe" instead of "john-doe").
  • When using umlauts the slug is e.g. "Mäx-Müstermänn" instead of "maex-muestermaenn".

Hint: In the given example the < and > chars are converted from Redmine to &lt; and &gt;.

This problem is still present and a blocker for everyone who wants to update their TYPO3 v8 to TYPO3 v9.

... As mentioned above however, special characters in the title might still be a problem ...

Anyway, I understand the use-case. For generating URLs it would be fixable (strtolower, substitute special characters). However, when resolving URLs it's difficult since a direct database look-up is not possible.

Thus, I see two possibilities:

  • when uid field is used, generation process shall use SlugHelper; resolving process just shall focus on uid
  • when uid is NOT used, try to perform substitution on database level (LCASE, REGEXP on MySQL - this might be different and to be handled in DBAL for other DBMS like PostgreSQL or SQLite)
