Contao DataContainer Array

Table

tl_pct_customcatalog_api

Take a closer look at the table structure of the tl_pct_customcatalog_api table for a complete list of the fields available by default (reusability) before adding new fields to the table.

DataContainer array

.../dca/tl_pct_customcatalog_api

<?php

/**
 * Palettes
 */
$GLOBALS['TL_DCA']['tl_pct_customcatalog_api']['palettes']['myApi'] = '{title_legend},type,be_description;{settings_legend},title,description;{backup_legend:hide},backup;{expert_legend},published';

Available subpalette structure

By default the current palettes relate to the tl_pct_customcatalog_api.type selector field (the API selector). CustomCatalog also allows more complex selector-to-palette structures for selector fieds:

• type
• mode

Example: Palettes for the Standard API: type="standard", mode="import"

'type_standard_mode_import' => '{title_legend},type,mode,be_description;{settings_legend},title,description;...'

Language files

.../languages/de/apis.php

<?php

/** 
 * CustomCatalog API translations 
 */
$GLOBALS['TL_LANG']['PCT_CUSTOMCATALOG']['API']['myApi'][0] = 'Meine API';
$GLOBALS['TL_LANG']['PCT_CUSTOMCATALOG']['API']['myApi'][1] = 'Dies ist meine eigene API-Schnittstelle.';

We use php files in this example. Fell free to use transifex files.
