JS IN TYPO3 BACKEND Andreas Fernandez
[email protected]
@_fernandreas Where did
we come from, where do we go?
AGENDA
1.Where did we come from? 2.Where are we now? 3.Current
development 4.What we might want to do
WHERE DID WE COME FROM? DISCLAIMER: YOU MAY FEEL OLD
None
WHERE DID WE COME FROM? TYPO3 3.8: 9 .js
files, total of 120 KB (excl. EXT:phpmyadmin(!)) But: lots of inline JavaScript Blazing fast (on an 8th gen Intel i7) UI doesn’t feel “snappy”
None
WHERE DID WE COME FROM? TYPO3 4.2: 85 .js
files, total of 1.3 MB Even more inline JavaScript But: more comfort features (e.g. IRRE, context menu via AJAX)
None
WHERE DID WE COME FROM? TYPO3 6.2: 349 .js
files, total of 7.9 MB(!) (excl. codemirror) Four major frameworks: script.aculo.us, prototype, jQuery, ExtJS
None
WHERE ARE WE NOW? JUST A QUICK STOP, WE’RE NOT
THERE YET
WHERE ARE WE NOW? During v7 development script.aculo.us and
prototype were dropped RequireJS was introduced
None
WHERE ARE WE NOW? Still 6.4 MB of JavaScript
in 389 files (excl. codemirror) Clear separation of modules, code became re- usable
WHERE ARE WE NOW? In v8, TypeScript was introduced
Unit tests for JavaScript
WHERE ARE WE NOW? In v9, much more code
has been migrated to TS Transpiled files are minified Bye bye ExtJS
None
CURRENT DEVELOPMENT “I HAVE A BAD FEELING ABOUT THIS”
CURRENT DEVELOPMENT In current master, most of the code
has been migrated to TypeScript (excl. EXT:form and legacy code) Some legacy code has been deprecated lately (jumpToUrl(), T3_THIS_LOCATION, setFormValue*() and more)
CURRENT DEVELOPMENT FormEngine components are splitted into separated modules
IRRE is now properly encapsulated Currently WIP: Proper processor API (lowercase, nospace, trim etc.)
CURRENT DEVELOPMENT 267 JavaScript files Disk consumption of
3.4 MB
BUT...
CURRENT DEVELOPMENT Browsers have stable APIs (querySelector, fetch)
Thus , jQuery will vanish in long term Migration already begun
CURRENT DEVELOPMENT Talking about “stable”: Support for Internet Explorer
is dropped
PROBABLY NOT BEFORE TYPO3 12 LTS
CURRENT DEVELOPMENT $(selector) → document.querySelector(All) (selector) $.ajax() →
fetch() (native XHR if required) $(foo).on() → document.querySelector(foo).addEventListe ner()
CURRENT DEVELOPMENT DRAFT: Replacement for $.ajax() const req = (new
AjaxRequest(url)).withQueryArguments(obj).json(); req.then((response) => console.log(response)); // → https://review.typo3.org/c/Packages/TYPO3.CMS/+/62129
WHAT WE MIGHT WANT TO DO “ROADS? WHERE WE’RE GOING,
WE DON’T NEED ROADS”
WHAT WE MIGHT WANT TO DO Drop RequireJS, replace
with ES6 imports Use a modern MVC framework (React, VueJS) Use web components Introduce proper state management
THANK YOU
