FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Informations about the package simulate-static-urls

simulate_static_urls TYPO3 Extension

This is a TYPO3 extension.

What does it do?

Adds the possibility to have speaking urls in the TYPO3 frontend (website). This means instead of having urls (links) like this

/index.php?id=42&L=1

the extension creates urls like this

/en/topics/interesting/cool_new_stuff_here.42.0.1.html

For more information have a look in documentation.

ASCII urls

A special feature is that ascii text will be generated from languages with non-ascii characters.

For example the page title

зимой холодно

will be converted to the text

zimoi_kholodno

How does it work

Other speaking url solutions have a problem. It is impossible to decode their urls to a TYPO3 page without storing that url before with the relation to the page. If you loose that information you can't decode the url. This is broken by design.

(To be honest simulate_static_urls has also a feature to encode parameters in shorter urls which produces problems if you deleted the hash table. But still the right page would be displayed.)

If you prefer an url like /en/topics/interesting/cool_new_stuff_here/ you might want to have a look at other xxxurl extensions. But maybe you want to hear what the meaning of the three numbers are:

/en/topics/interesting/cool_new_stuff_here.42.0.1.html

Except the original simulatestatic extension, all other xxxurl extensions have the problem that the url can not be decoded until the page is rendered once. Normally that's not a problem until your url registry got corrupt. The second thing is that moving pages to a new location has to be tracked. Otherwise the page would no longer be found with the first url. There are also problems with duplicate names of pages and path ...

The urls created by this extension include

With that information a page can be found and delivered no matter what the rest of the url looks like. You now what? In fact the rest of the url is completely ignored and has no meaning to the system.

Unfortunately ... there are parameters. There's no magic to remove them, so there's an registry for parameters when you choose to shorten the url with parameters. But if that's lost the url is still working and shows the right page, but maybe not the single news entry what would normally displayed.
