This extension allows you to add soft-hyphen definitions to your TYPO3.
Those rules will be applied to the frontend at the end of your middleware stack.
This extension aims to give you full control about HOW you want specific terms to break in case of having limited space. There are other client- & server-side solutions out there which do all the magic w/o you having to provide specifications, but they may result in endlessly huge pain on designer and customer sites.
So as a simple example, this extension allows you to NOT have break like this:
... ... .. ..... ... Ar-
beiterunfallversicherungsgesetz
... ... .. ..... Arbeiterun-
fallversicherungsgesetz
Arbeiterun-
fallver-
sicherungsge-
setz
You can have this:
... ... .. ..... ... Arbeiter-
unfallversicherungsgesetz
... ... .. ..... Arbeiterunfall-
versicherungsgesetz
Arbeiter-
unfall-
versicherungs-
gesetz
YAY!
composer require straschek-io/typo3-hyphenator
vendor/bin/typo3 extension:activate typo3_hyphenator
No further configuration needed.
- Just add a "Hyphenator term" record and clear the TYPO3 cache
- Reload your frontend
The pid field is not evaluated, so simply drop the records into a
sys folder to your liking.
I tried several PHP based DOM parsers, but they all significantly suffered from complexity and performance issues.
The replacement now is implemented in a super simple way via preg_replace(). This may
and will not cover all cases. Maybe I failed on it, but this approach IMHO works best:
simple & fast.
If you have improvement suggestions, find the used regular expression on regex101.com.
I am open to enhance this.
Compatible with TYPO3 10.4+
Tested manually. No automated tests planned (so far).
Works for me, may work for you.
