How to use taxonomy module inside own extension

[freeyland]

Hi,

How to use taxonomy module inside own extension?
Something like this?

'taxonomyRoot' => array
(
'label' => &$GLOBALS['TL_LANG']['tl_requests']['taxonomyRoot'],
'inputType' => 'TaxonomyTree',
'eval' => array('mandatory' => true, 'fieldType' => 'radio'),
)

How do I specify the root?

Rgds,

'root' => array(1,2,3,4)

since you can specify many roots.

Thx for the reply.
This is the code I used inside my fields array:

'module' => array
		(
			'label'                   => &$GLOBALS['TL_LANG']['tl_requests']['module'],
			'exclude'                 => true,
			'search'                  => true,
			'inputType'               => 'TaxonomyTree',
			'eval' 					  => array('mandatory' => true, 'fieldType' => 'radio'),
			'root' 					  => array(1)
		),

but I don't see anything displayed.
For the record, i've put module in the palette.

thx

i'll correct the location:

The version that is currently active doesn't support arrays of rootid's but the next version (for next catalog) will support multiple taxonomy roots.

$GLOBALS['TL_DCA'][$this->strTable]['fields'][$this->strField]['eval']['rootid'];

Still doesn't work:

'module' => array
		(
			'label'                   => &$GLOBALS['TL_LANG']['tl_requests']['module'],
			'exclude'                 => true,
			'search'                  => true,
			'inputType'               => 'TaxonomyTree',
			'eval' 		=> array('mandatory' => true, 'fieldType' => 'radio'),
			'rootid' 			=> 1
		),

you didn't read it correctly, the rootid goes INSIDE the eval section. Look again.

I've adapted my code to:

'module' => array
		(
			'label'                   => &$GLOBALS['TL_LANG']['tl_requests']['module'],
			'exclude'                 => true,
			'search'                  => true,
			'inputType'               => 'TaxonomyTree',
			'eval' 					  => array('mandatory' => true, 'fieldType' => 'radio','rootid' => '1')
		),

but still no luck. Do I have to include the taxonomy class somewhere. I don't get any errormessage.

Thx,

Do I need to do something special to use a widget from an other module?

Hi,

Now I know (I think) why it was not working. Widgets can't be used in the front-end.

I'm guessing but i think Thyon means

         'eval'                  => array('mandatory' => true, 'fieldType' => 'radio', 'root' => array(1,2,3,4))
