By Stan Hutcheon - Bigfork Ltd

Installation:

Composer:

composer require "stnvh/silverstripe-taggedfield" "~1"

Download:

Clone this repo into a folder called taggedfield in your silverstripe installation folder.

Usage:

Initialize it like any other field. Make sure you have a 'Text' entry in the database to store the values:

<?php

class MyObject extends DataObject {

	private static $db = array(
		'Tags' => 'Text'
	);

	public function getCMSFields() {
		$fields = parent::getCMSFields();

		$taggedField = TaggedField::create('Tags');

		$fields->addFieldToTab('Root.Main', $taggedField);

		return $fields;
	}

	// To use the tags in the template correctly
	public function Tags() {
		$tags = explode(',', $this->Tags);
		foreach($tags as $i => $tag) {
			$tags[$i] = array('Tag' => $tag);
		}
		return ArrayList::create($tags);
	}

}

In the template:

	<% loop Tags %>
		<span class="tag">{$Tag}</span>
	<% end_loop %>

After installing via composer, you must /dev/build

stnvh / silverstripe-taggedfield
