Duplicate structure entry

Hi everybody,

is there a plugin available to duplicate structure entries? Can’t find a solution in the forum expect of a very old thread.

Cheers

I’m not aware of such a plugin. Maybe the Swiss army knife called Janitor plugin could be useful for this purpose, @bnomei?

lets assume one add a janitor button to a structure blueprint. the button will appear on every entry form. problem is for the button to know which structure entry to forward to the job that will handle the duplication. one would need to add the data prop to something like “item” (maybe @texnixe know how query would address an item in structure properly).

mystructure:
  type: structure
  fields:
     # other fields
     duplicate:
        type: janitor
        label: Duplicate Item
        data: '{{ item }}'

the button is aware of the “model”… so if the model in a structure field is forwared through the query it might work. if currently only knows pages and files but adding structures (if the model support that) might not be too hard. sadly i do not have any time at hand for a week or two. but @Oli1 you could add an issue so i do not forget.

some relevant code…

        'progress' => function ($progress = null) {
            return \Kirby\Toolkit\I18n::translate($progress, $progress);
        },
        'job' => function (?string $job = null) {
            return 'plugin-janitor/' . $job;
        },
        'cooldown' => function (int $cooldownMilliseconds = 2000) {
            return intval(option('bnomei.janitor.label.cooldown', $cooldownMilliseconds));
        },
        'data' => function (?string $data = null) {
            $data = \Bnomei\Janitor::query($data, $this->model());
            return \Kirby\Toolkit\I18n::translate($data, $data);
        },
        'clipboard' => function ($clipboard = null) {
            return \Bnomei\Janitor::isTrue($clipboard);
        },
        'pageURI' => function () {
            return $this->model()->uri();
        },
    ],
],

    self::$singleton = new Janitor($options);
    return self::$singleton;
}


/**

 * @param mixed|null $model
 * @return string

public static function query(string $template = null, $model = null): string
{
    $page = null;
    $file = null;
    if ($model && $model instanceof Page) {
        $page = $model;
    } elseif ($model && $model instanceof File) {
        $file = $model;
    }
    return Str::template($template, [
        'kirby' => kirby(),

Looks like a heavy project for me … not sure why, but maybe duplicate structure entries should be a core feature?

@bnomei really awesome plugin!!!

You could create a feature request in the ideas repo, @Oli1?
