Methods

canConvertFrom()

public canConvertFrom(mixed $source, string $targetType) : bool
Deprecated

will be removed in TYPO3 v13.0

Parameters
$source : mixed

the source data

$targetType : string
Return values
bool

convertFrom()

Actually convert from $source to $targetType, taking into account the fully built $convertedChildProperties and $configuration.

public convertFrom(string|int $source, string $targetType[, array<string|int, mixed> $convertedChildProperties = [] ][, PropertyMappingConfigurationInterface|null $configuration = null ]) : mixed|Error
Parameters
$source : string|int
$targetType : string
$convertedChildProperties : array<string|int, mixed> = []
$configuration : PropertyMappingConfigurationInterface|null = null
Tags
throws
Exception
Return values
mixed|Error —

the target type, or an error object if a user-error occurred

getPriority()

Return the priority of this TypeConverter. TypeConverters with a high priority are chosen before low priority.

public getPriority() : int
Deprecated

will be removed in TYPO3 v13.0, as this is defined in Services.yaml.

Return values
int

getSourceChildPropertiesToBeConverted()

Return a list of sub-properties inside the source object.

public getSourceChildPropertiesToBeConverted(mixed $source) : array<string|int, mixed>
Parameters
$source : mixed
Tags
todo

this method is only used for converter sources that have children (i.e. objects). Introduce another ChildPropertyAwareTypeConverterInterface and drop this method from the main interface

Returns an empty list of sub property names

Return values
array<string|int, mixed>

getSupportedSourceTypes()

Returns the list of source types the TypeConverter can handle.

public getSupportedSourceTypes() : array<string|int, string>
Deprecated

will be removed in TYPO3 v13.0, as this is defined in Services.yaml.

Must be PHP simple types, classes or object is not allowed.

Return values
array<string|int, string>

getSupportedTargetType()

Return the target type this TypeConverter converts to.

public getSupportedTargetType() : string
Deprecated

will be removed in TYPO3 v13.0, as this is defined in Services.yaml.

Can be a simple type or a class name.

Return values
string

getTargetTypeForSource()

Returns the type for a given source, depending on e.g. the __type setting or other properties.

public getTargetTypeForSource(mixed $source, string $originalTargetType[, PropertyMappingConfigurationInterface|null $configuration = null ]) : string
Parameters
$source : mixed

the source data

$originalTargetType : string

the type we originally want to convert to

$configuration : PropertyMappingConfigurationInterface|null = null
Tags
todo

The concept of this method is flawed because it enables the override of the target type depending on the structure of the source. So, technically we no longer convert type A to B but source of type A with structure X to type B defined by X. This makes a type converter non-deterministic.

Returns the $originalTargetType unchanged in this implementation.

Return values
string

getTypeOfChildProperty()

Return the type of a given sub-property inside the $targetType

public getTypeOfChildProperty(string $targetType, string $propertyName, PropertyMappingConfigurationInterface $configuration) : string
Parameters
$targetType : string
$propertyName : string
$configuration : PropertyMappingConfigurationInterface
Tags
todo

this method is only used for converter sources that have children (i.e. objects). Introduce another ChildPropertyAwareTypeConverterInterface and drop this method from the main interface

This method is never called, as getSourceChildPropertiesToBeConverted() returns an empty array.

Return values
string —

the type of $propertyName in $targetType
