Get path of FAL media?


Using Fluid Template with tx_news, I need to get the URL of uploaded FAL video.

Currently I have this:

{newsItem.falMedia.0}

Which prints:

GeorgRinger\News\Domain\Model\FileReference:3

I want the output:

fileadmin/user_upload/MyVideo.mp4

Solution

  • newsItem.falMedia seems to be an ObjectStorage. With .0 you are pointing to the first object of it - not any function of it. In the API you can see its functions http://api.typo3.org/typo3cms/current/html/class_t_y_p_o3_1_1_c_m_s_1_1_core_1_1_resource_1_1_file_reference.html or you can debug it in Fluid by using {newsItem.falMedia.0}

    Example: {newsItem.falMedia.0.publicUrl} should give you the public path to the file.
