DDEV for TYPO3 extensions

This is an example configuration for DDEV to provide a development environment for a single TYPO3 CMS extension.

It also provides a very basic skeleton of a TYPO3 extension, which automatically gets installed in all TYPO3 versions.

Currently, the following TYPO3 CMS versions are supported (using PHP 8.2):

  • TYPO3 11.5 LTS
  • TYPO3 12.4 LTS
  • TYPO3 13.4 LTS

If you are looking for older TYPO3 CMS versions, you can check out and use those tags:

Setup

  1. Copy the entire .ddev folder to your project's root
  2. Search and replace in all files within .ddev
    • search for my_ext and replace with your extension key
    • search for my-ext and replace with your DDEV sitename (used in URL)
  3. Change the package name vendor/my-ext in root composer.json as well as in environment section in .ddev/docker-compose.web.yaml file (variable PACKAGE_NAME).
  4. Also adjust the autoload section in root composer.json.

When done with renaming, the following files have been touched:

  • .ddev/apache/apache-site.conf to set ServerAlias in vhost
  • .ddev/web-build/Dockerfile creates initial index.html files
  • .ddev/docker-compose.web.yaml to define environment variables and Docker volumes
  • .ddev/config.yaml to set DDEV sitename and additional hostnames
  • composer.json the package name of your extension, the autoload and extra section

You can check the final result in your version control system and share it with your collaborators, which can use it instantly.

Usage

Requirements

The following software is required to be installed on the host machine:

  • Docker
  • Docker Compose
  • DDEV

Also, an internet connection is required, to fetch containers and packages. Once the environment is installed, no internet connection is required anymore.

Start DDEV

Check out your project, with .ddev folder in it and perform a

$ ddev start

on CLI. This will start the containers, but will not install anything automatically.

Install TYPO3 environments

This environment offers several DDEV commands, to provision the web container, supporting the following TYPO3 versions:

$ ddev install-v11
$ ddev install-v12
$ ddev install-v13

To install all at once, you can also use

$ ddev install-all

When the installation is done, you can access an overview here:

The TYPO3 installations are available here:

As well as an entry-point to the rendered HTML documentation:

Note: Replace my-ext with your DDEV sitename

Credentials

All versions got the same credentials set:

  • Username: admin
  • Password: Password:joh316 (also in install tool)

TYPO3 CLI / typo3_console

To access TYPO3's CLI tools you can utilize ddev exec like that:

$ ddev exec v12/vendor/bin/typo3
$ ddev exec v13/vendor/bin/typo3

In TYPO3 v11 you can still use the binary of typo3_console:

$ ddev exec v11/vendor/bin/typo3cms

Render and view documentation

Every extension should have proper documentation, which can get hosted on https://docs.typo3.org. To render and view the documentation locally, you can use:

$ ddev docs
$ ddev launch-docs

Remove DDEV project

To remove a DDEV project you can use the following command on CLI

$ ddev delete -Oy

Known problems

The package "root" depends on "t3/cms" which is not present in the system

When composer gives you this issue, you need to self-update composer. This issue occured in Composer 2.5.6.

Wrong line endings

When you get the following error

bash: ./install-v13: /bin/bash^M: bad interpreter: No such file or directory

your host system is probably Windows based. This issue occurs, when the shell scripts got wrong line endings (wrong: CRLF, correct: LF). On Windows, Git changes the line-endings by default, if git config core.autocrlf is not set to false.

Contribute

If you are a developer, and you want to submit improvements as code, you can fork this repo and make a pull request to the master branch.

Thanks!
