## Features

- Transform Craft CMS contents to custom data structures
- Create custom Transformer classes for your components
- Cache contents on a Transformer basis (via providing `getCacheKey`)

## Requirements

- Craft CMS >= 5.x

## Setup

**1. Install**

Install the package

```sh
cd /path/to/project
composer require fork/craft-transform
```

**2. Configure namespace and create transformers**

- Copy the example `config.php` to your Craft config directory and rename it to `transform.php`
- Specify the namespace to your custom Transformer classes (in your project plugin/module). Here's an example:

```php
[
'transformerNamespace' => '\company\project\transformers'
],
'dev' => [
'enableCache' => false,
],
'staging' => [
'enableCache' => true,
],
'production' => [
'enableCache' => true,
],
];
```

In your project plugin/module create a `transformers` directory to put your transformers. Here is an example Transformer class:

```php
globals->getSetByHandle('footer');
$footerNavGlobals = $footer->footerNavigationElements->all();
$footerLinks = [];

foreach ($footerNavGlobals as $linkEntry) {
$link = [
'href' => $linkEntry->navigationLink->getUrl(),
'name' => $linkEntry->navigationLink->getText(),
'slug' => $linkEntry->navigationLink->hasElement() ? $linkEntry->navigationLink->getElement()->slug : $linkEntry->navigationLink->getUrl(),
'target' => $linkEntry->navigationLink->getTarget()
];
$footerLinks[] = $link;
}

return $footerLinks;
}

}
```

## Usage

In your templates you can use `craft.transform.getData()`. The first parameter is optional. It could be your `entry` to get the data from.
Also, it could be `null`. The second parameter must match with the corresponding Transformer class. E.g. pass `'Footer'` to use the `FooterTransformer`.

```twig
{% set articleData = {
headline: entry.title,
contentBlocks: craft.transform.getData(entry, 'ContentBlocks')
} %}

{% include '@components/templates/article-page/article-page.twig' with {
header: craft.transform.getData(null, 'Header'),
headline: articleData.headline,
contentBlocks: articleData.contentBlocks,
footer: craft.transform.getData(null, 'Footer')
} only %}
```

## Roadmap

- [x] Caching
- [x] Logo
- [ ] Settings maybe (instead of config file)
