3.0.0

Breaking

Namespace changes

A new namespace was defined for plugins which is "events_search". The search parameters are now collected below namespace "search" instead of "events_search" leading to events_search[search][parametername]=value instead of tx_events_signature[events_search][parametername]=value.

The form now is submitted as post and redirects to a proper URL with GET.

The code was bloated and made it hard to fix bugs.

Necessary steps:

Check usage of old namespace within templates and other sources.
Check usage of old nesting of parameters.

API Changes

The methods of DateDemand have changed, getStart() and getEnd() return a string value necessary or Fluid forms. Those are not considered public API. Use getStartObject() and getEndObject() instead.

The static method createFromRequestValues() was moved as an instance method to the factory, in order to streamline factories.

The old location properties were removed from events. The locations are imported as dedicated instance already. The corresponding TCA and database columns got removed as well.

The Form ViewHelper got removed as it was unused.

Removed command

The legacy command was removed. It now is necessary to create import configurations and use new commands to import those configurations.

Features

Provide routing

The extension now provides a basic routing. This can either be imported or used as an example.

Date also has a slug field now.

Fixes

Keep filter during pagination

Search requests are POST by default. We apply PRG (=Post Redirect Get) on them to create proper GET requests. Those can be used to generate the URLs for pagination.

We follow Extbase, and do not explicitly ask for arguments from foreign namespaces. Instead we configure a pluginNamespace that's shared between plugins. This is all necessary as we still ship pre defined plugins. This should belong into integration of each project.
