I'm currently learning extbase and fluid. I read along this SO post TYPO3 extbase & IRRE: add existing records with 'foreign_selector' to set up a relation in my extension. I got roles and people. N people can have M roles. Now everything works fine in the backend. While in the frontend I don't see the objects when I use f:debug. My problem is that the relation isn't correctly resolved by extbase (I think?).
This is my relation class:
<?php
namespace Vendor\People\Domain\Model;
/**
* Class PersonRoleRelation
* @scope prototype
* @entity
* @package Vendor\People\Domain\Model
*/
class PersonRelation extends \TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\DomainObject\AbstractEntity {
/**
* @var \Vendor\People\Domain\Model\Person
*/
protected $person;
/**
* @var \Vendor\People\Domain\Model\Role
*/
protected $role;
/**
* @param \Vendor\People\Domain\Model\Person $person
*/
public function setPerson($person) {
$this->person = $person;
}
/**
* @return \Vendor\People\Domain\Model\Person
*/
public function getPerson() {
return $this->person;
}
/**
* @param \Vendor\People\Domain\Model\Role $role
*/
public function setRole($role) {
$this->role = $role;
}
/**
* @return \Vendor\People\Domain\Model\Role
*/
public function getRole() {
return $this->role;
}
}
This is entity person:
<?php
namespace Vendor\People\Domain\Model;
/**
* Class Person
* @scope prototype
* @entity
* @package Vendor\People\Domain\Model
*/
class Person extends \TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\DomainObject\AbstractEntity {
public function __construct() {
$this->initStorageObjects();
}
/**
* @return void
*/
protected function initStorageObjects() {
$this->roles = new \TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Persistence\ObjectStorage();
}
/**
* Roles
* @var \TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Persistence\ObjectStorage<\Vendor\People\Domain\Model\PersonRelation>
*/
protected $roles = NULL;
/**
* the person's first name
* @var string
* @validate StringLength(minimum = 3, maximum = 50)
*/
protected $firstname;
/**
* the person's last name
* @var string
* @validate StringLength(minimum = 3, maximum = 50)
*/
protected $lastname;
/**
* the person's responsibilities within the company
* @var string
*/
protected $role;
/**
* Photo
* @var \TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Domain\Model\FileReference
*/
protected $photo;
/**
* detail text about the person
* @var string
* @dontvalidate
*/
protected $description;
/**
* @param string $firstname
* @return void
*/
public function setFirstname($firstname) {
$this->firstname = $firstname;
}
/**
* @return string
*/
public function getFirstname() {
return $this->firstname;
}
/**
* @param string $lastname
* @return void
*/
public function setLastname($lastname) {
$this->lastname = $lastname;
}
/**
* @return string
*/
public function getLastname() {
return $this->lastname;
}
/**
* @param string $role
* @return void
*/
public function setRole($role) {
$this->role = $role;
}
/**
* @return string
*/
public function getRole() {
return $this->role;
}
/**
* @param string $description
* @return void
*/
public function setDescription($description) {
$this->description = $description;
}
/**
* @return string
*/
public function getDescription() {
return $this->description;
}
/**
* @param \TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Persistence\ObjectStorage<\TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Domain\Model\FileReference> $photo
* @return void
*/
public function setPhoto($photo) {
$this->photo = $photo;
}
/**
* @return \TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Persistence\ObjectStorage<\TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Domain\Model\FileReference>
*/
public function getPhoto() {
return $this->photo;
}
/**
* @return\TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Persistence\ObjectStorage<\Vendor\People\Domain\Model\PersonRelation>
*/
public function getRoles() {
return $this->roles;
}
}
?>
and this is role:
<?php
namespace Vendor\People\Domain\Model;
/**
* Class Role
* @scope prototype
* @entity
* @package Vendor\People\Domain\Model
*/
class Role extends \TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\DomainObject\AbstractEntity {
/**
* the role's title
* @var string
* @validate StringLength(minimum = 3, maximum = 50)
*/
protected $name;
public function __construct() {
}
/**
* @param string $name
* @return void
*/
public function setName($name) {
$this->name = $name;
}
/**
* @return string
*/
public function getName() {
return $this->name;
}
}
?>

So the problem is that I need to access those related objects (or the roles of a person) in the frontend. edit: I think I'm a bit confused about the type of relation I need at all right now. 1 Person can have n roles. I don't want to relate people to roles later on anyways. I just want to create roles and later on assign roles to different people. So it would be a 1:n relation I guess. If that makes it any easier.
RolePerson
toRole
and 1:n fromRolePerson
toPerson
