Add information about accessing TypoScript in extension #463
Description
AFAIK, this information is currently missing. Information about how to access TypoScript can be added, similar to the information on the Flexform page.
todos
- Access TypoScript from Extbase controllers
- Access TypoScript from Fluid with Extbase controllers
- Access TypoScript with Extbase, but outside of controller (with ConfigurationManager?)
- Access TypoScript outside of Extbase
- Access TypoScript with Fluid, without Extbase
Existing resources in TYPO3 documentation:
- configuration in Extbase extensions (Extbase / Fluid book)
- Extbase TypoScript reference (Extbase / Fluid book)
Existing resources outside of TYPO3 documentation
- FluidTypo nicely explains how the "settings" are used, see point Solution
- Stack Overflow: How to get TYPO3 settings in the utility files?
- access via ConfigurationManager, e.g. https://jainishsenjaliya.wordpress.com/2016/03/13/how-to-access-typoscript-settings-data-in-typo3-extension/
Open questions
- should ConfigurationManager be used (and when?)
- can this always be used? Is it recommended?
