Silverstripe Taskforms

Utility to make Silverstripe tasks more interactive and better looking.

Silverstripe 4+

Installation

composer require "hamaka/silverstripe-taskforms"

Features

• Adds some basic CSS to task output.
• Adds utility methods to give colour to alteration messages (echoGood, echoNotice, echoError etc).
• Adds a pattern to generate a simple form to populate variable input (an array of variables is turned into a form).
• Adds a way to block execution when not all required input is present.
• The default textfields in the form can be overruled with more complex Silverstripe FormFields.
• Adds a pattern to be able to force a dry run of the task before execution.
• Adds utility method to dump array output as a table.
• Overrides the default Silverstripe TaskRunner to allow /dev/tasks to be organized in categories. Categories can be added with TaskCategoryProviders in the same way Silverstripe PermissionProvider works.
