README
Adds an extension to add a URLSegment to any SilverStripe DataObject and manages slug collisions.
That is, it does the basic lifting of:
- Adding a
URLSegment
field of typeDBVarchar
to your object - Provides an optional update to object's CMS Fields, inserting a URLSegment field (enable this via config yml)
- Auto-generates URLSegment based on object Title field
Requirements
SilverStripe 4 or 5
Installation
composer require fromholdio/silverstripe-urlsegmenter
Upgrading from 1.x/2.x to 3.x
There are new config variables, which maintain the same default effect, however if you are overriding them in your projects you will need to update to the new variable names:
private static $urlsegmenter_force_title = true;
private static $urlsegmenter_enable_field = false;
Are now toggled via:
private static $urlsegmenter_forced = true;
private static $urlsegmenter_cmsfield_enabled = false;
Usage example
It's all plug-n-play once you apply the extension to your data object - with one exception.
To allow the extension to auto-generate a slug and manage collisions, you need to tell the extension what the scope of the collection you're setting the URLSegment within is.
class Widget extends DataObject { // or apply via config.yml private static $extensions = [ URLSegmenter::class ]; private static $db = [ 'Title' => 'Varchar' ]; private static $has_one = [ 'WidgetCategory' => WidgetCategory::class ]; public function getURLSegmenterScope() { return self::get() ->filter('WidgetCategoryID' => $this->WidgetCategoryID) ->exclude('ID', $this->ID); } }
