README

A backend list view of document subtrees for Neos CMS to avoid large and confusing document subtrees that typically occur with news articles or blog posts.

Usage

Fusion (Basic)

• To enable the list view on any Document NodeType, it must be based on Kleisli.Neos.DocumentCollection:Document.DocumentCollection instead of an AbstractPage prototype based on Neos.Neos:Page.
• The page that is shown in the frontend has to be configured as property layoutView.
• The default view when accessing a DocumentCollection in the backend is list but you can also define defaultView = 'layout'
  • Switch between list and layout view using the icon tabs in the admin bar at the top of the page

prototype(My.Site:Document.News) < prototype(Kleisli.Neos.DocumentCollection:Document.DocumentCollection) {
    defaultView = 'list'
    layoutView = My.Site:Document.AbstractPage {
        ... 
    }
}

NodeTypes (Optional)

• Use Kleisli.Neos.DocumentCollection:Constraint.HideInDocumentTree as a superType of your news article or blog post NodeType to hide them in the document tree. They can then only be accessed from the DocumentCollection views.
• superType Kleisli.Neos.DocumentCollection:Document.DocumentCollection dosen't do much, but it defines the folder as NodeType icon.

Example

You can find a basic example in NodeTypes/Document/Example and Resources/Private/Fusion/Document/Example. To test the example in action, define the example NodeTypes as not abstract.
