How to ensure my extension's TypoScript is loaded in every case?

I have a TYPO3 extension and have TypoScript in there. For some reason I want to ensure the TypoScript is loaded when activating the extension, without including static templates in TYPO3 backend.

How can I do this?

Be careful with the following How-To. You should know what you're doing!

For TYPO3 extensions it's possible to add two files in the root of your extension: ext_typoscript_constants.typoscript and ext_typoscript_setup.typoscript.

In ext_typoscript_constants.typoscript you can add constants. In ext_typoscript_setup.typoscript you can add the TypoScript setup.

When adding these files with TypoScript, it will be loaded when the extension is installed and activated.

I use this possibility only for site package extensions where the complete page rendering and configuration is included.

See: https://docs.typo3.org/typo3cms/CoreApiReference/ExtensionArchitecture/FilesAndLocations/Index.html
