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.

MetaModels

So what are MetaModels?

MetaModels are data models you can configure in the Contao Backend. Every MetaModel consists of various attributes of certain data types (attribute types are available as extensions and get registered upon installation).

To present the data on the screen (i.e. website, RSS feed, etc.), you define render settings for the MetaModel which define how the various attribute output shall look like (image sizes, use light boxes, etc.).

Filtering data in list views needs configuration of filter settings. Filter settings are a very complex topic, as they can be nested (AND/OR conditions i.e.) and be of various nature.

Before you start it is helpful to look at the MetaModels manual. There you will find actual information about the usage and the installation.

How to use it.

Install

You can install MetaModels core with Contao Manager - search "metamodels/core" - or you can use composer

php web/contao-manager.phar.php composer require metamodels/core

Then add all the necessary attributes, filters or MetaModel extensions.

For the first evaluation of the possibilities of MetaModels you can also use metamodels/bundle_start, which installs some attributes and filters.

Please do not forget to perform the migration of the database!

History:

Metamodels are the replacement for the famous Catalog extension for Contao CMS.

As the catalog extension was growing too complex to maintain and most support for extendability was rather hacky, we decided it was time to take everything we learned during the development of Catalog 1 and Catalog 2 to provide you with Catalog 3 which shall be even more flexible and very easy to extend with own classes.

As development did go on nicely, we realized that an easy migration from Catalog to the new version will not very likely be possible both in implementation and learning curve but that this will be a very own and unique extension resembling only of the name with it's ancestor. Therefore, we rebranded everything as "MetaModels".
