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.
