josefglatz / toolbar_clear_processedfiles

TYPO3 extension for adding a clear processed files button within the TYPO3 backend (specifically for development purpose only)

josefglatz/toolbar-clear-processedfiles (TYPO3 Extension toolbar_clear_processedfiles)

Adds a TYPO3 backend toolbar button to clear processed files on local storages

Installation

Installation using Composer

The recommended way to install the extension is by using Composer. In your Composer based TYPO3 project root, just do composer require josefglatz/toolbar-clear-processedfiles.

Configuration

The extension is working per default if the TYPO3 backend user is an adminstrator and

• applicationContext is Development,
• or applicationContext is Production/Dev
• or the UserTSConfig for the administrator includes options.clearCache.processedfiles = 1

---

Use cases

• You're changing from ImageMagick to GraphicsMagick for any reason or just for testing
• You're developing cache clearing features and you need a quick way to clear processed files before doing another testrun locally
• You're just lazy and don't want to open the system tools all the time
• You're experimenting with the GFX/jpeg_quality. And yes it totally makes sense to play with the value even if every photographer know that value 86 is somehow a good value between big file size and quality.

All those use cases are or at least were my use cases when working on TYPO3 projects as developer/integrator/sysadmin

---

Development

The ongoing development is done within the master branch!

You can use composer require-dev josefglatz/toolbar-clear-processedfiles:dev-master if you want to test the current development state.

toolbar_clear_processedfiles's Issues

TYPO3 12 Support

Add cli command

Just found your extension while searching for a solution to delete millions of _processed_ files in different storages,
which just times out in maintenance backend (v10, here).

I think, it could make sense to add a cli command call?

CI: add CGL workflows

Rename Branch master to main

Use DI where possible for me

Drop support for TYPO3 =< 10 LTS

Since the extension is somehow feature complete, I've decided to support only two TYPO3 major versions.

TYPO3 11.5 LTS support

CI: add release workflow
