TYPO3 File as .txt or .ts?

I build a TYPO3 Extension. And I use for the TypoScript Folder the Files as .ts. For the IDE PhpStorm is this better I use .ts.

But I see in other Extensions the File as .txt.

What is better?

Solution

  • You should use the file ending .typoscript for newer TYPO3 versions.

    This was introduced in TYPO3 8.7, see changelog: Feature: #78161 - Introduce .typoscript file extension

    Using .txt was deprecated in 9.3, see Changelog Deprecation: #81686 - Accessing core TypoScript with .txt file extension has been deprecated

    As already mentioned, .ts is not such a good idea as it is used for Typescript.
