RecordLinkHandler extends AbstractLinkHandler implements LinkHandlerInterface, LinkParameterProviderInterface

FinalYes

This link handler allows linking to arbitrary database records.

They can be configured in addition to default core link handlers and are rendered as additional tab in the link browser.

A typical use case is linking a single new record.

Additional page TSconfig TCEMAIN.linkHandler setup is necessary to use this.

A typical configuration looks like the below snippet. It configures a tab that allows linking to ext:news news records ("table" is mandatory), labels them as "Book reports" (LLL: is possible), forces a specific page-uid (optional), and hides page-tree selection (optional).

TCEMAIN.linkHandler.bookreports { handler = TYPO3\CMS\Backend\LinkHandler\RecordLinkHandler label = Book Reports configuration { table = tx_news_domain_model_news storagePid = 42 hidePageTree = 1 } }

Properties

$configuration

Specific TSconfig for the current instance (corresponds to TCEMAIN.linkHandler.record.<identifier>.configuration)

protected array<string|int, mixed> $configuration = []

$identifier

protected string $identifier

$linkAttributes

Available additional link attributes

protected array<string|int, string> $linkAttributes = ['target', 'title', 'class', 'params', 'rel']

'rel' only works in RTE, still we have to declare support for it.

Parts of the current link

protected array<string|int, mixed> $linkParts = []

$updateSupported

protected bool $updateSupported = true

Checks if this is the right handler for the given link.

public canHandleLink(array<string|int, mixed> $linkParts) : bool

Also stores information locally about currently linked record.

Link parts as returned from TypoLinkCodecService

Return values
bool

formatCurrentUrl()
