Rendering special formats (CSV, JSON, XML, …)
Rendering an RSS feed as XML or a document in a different format than HTML is possible by configuring a new route and adding a Fusion path that renders the format.
Let’s have a look at an example that introduce a vcard
format to render an imaginary Person
document node type.
Routing
Configuration/Routes.yaml
in your site package:
-
name: 'Neos :: Frontend :: Document node with vCard format'
uriPattern: '{node}.vcf'
defaults:
'@package': Neos.Neos
'@controller': Frontend\Node
'@action': show
'@format': vcard
routeParts:
node:
handler: Neos\Neos\Routing\FrontendNodeRoutePartHandlerInterface
appendExceedingArguments: true
This will register a new route to nodes with the vcard
format. URIs with that format will get an .vcf
extension.
Global Configuration/Routes.yaml
(before the Neos subroutes):
##
# Site package subroutes
-
name: 'MyPackage'
uriPattern: '<MyPackageSubroutes>'
subRoutes:
'MyPackageSubroutes':
package: 'My.Package'
##
# Neos subroutes
# ...
This will add the new route from the site package before the Neos subroutes.
Fusion
The root
case in the default Fusion will render every format that is different from html
by rendering a path
with the format value.
Root.fusion:
# Define a path for rendering the vcard format
vcard = Neos.Fusion:Case {
person {
condition = ${q(node).is('[instanceof My.Package:Person]')}
type = 'My.Package:Person.Vcard'
}
}
# Define a prototype to render a Person document as a vcard
prototype(My.Package:Person.Vcard) < prototype(Neos.Fusion:Http.Message) {
# Set the Content-Type header
httpResponseHead {
headers.Content-Type = 'text/x-vcard;charset=utf-8'
}
content = My.Package:Person {
templatePath = 'resource://My.Package/Private/Templates/NodeTypes/Person.Vcard.html'
# Set additional variables for the template
}
}
