Using TYPO3 8 LTS, we got many standardized filenames like:
ABC_105-Report.pdf
DEFGH_110-Brochure.ppt
We need to remove whatever is at left of "-" so it becomes a list like this in TYPO3 Frontend:
Report.pdf
Brochure.ppt
We are already using VHS Viewhelpers which contains Format:Eliminiate, Substring so it may be part of the solution.
One possible solution is VHS: Format / PregReplaceViewHelper.
<f:alias map="{filenames: {
0: 'ABC_105-Report.pdf',
1: 'DEFGH_110-Brochure.ppt',
2: 'FilenameWithoutMagicChar.jpg',
3: 'Multiple-Magic-Chars.jpg'}}">
<ul>
<f:for each="{filenames}" as="filename">
<li>
{v:format.pregReplace(
subject: filename,
pattern: '/^[^-]*-/',
replacement: ''
)}
</li>
</f:for>
</ul>
</f:alias>
Result:
If 'Chars.jpg' is required instead of 'Magic-Chars.jpg', the regular expression is /-.*/
