A ProcessWire module adding [Latte](https://latte.nette.org/) to the [TemplateEngineFactory](https://github.com/wanze/TemplateEngineFactory).

This module version uses Latte 3, which comes with breaking changes in how tags/macros are defined. If you need to keep using Latte 2, stick with major version `^1.0` of this module. Learn more about the [migration to Latte 3](https://latte.nette.org/en/cookbook/migration-from-latte2) and [upgrading macros to tags](https://tomasvotruba.com/blog/how-to-upgrade-latte-2-macro-to-latte-3-tag/).

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- ProcessWire `3.0` or newer
- TemplateEngineFactory `2.0` or newer
- PHP `8.0` or newer
- Composer

Installation
------------

[](#installation)

Execute the following command in the root directory of your ProcessWire installation:

```
composer require daun/template-engine-latte:^2.0

```

This will install the *TemplateEngineLatte* and *TemplateEngineFactory* modules in one step. Afterwards, don't forget to enable Latte as engine in the *TemplateEngineFactory* module's configuration.

> ℹ️ This module includes test dependencies. If you are installing on production with `composer install`, make sure to pass the `--no-dev` flag to omit autoloading any unnecessary test dependencies!.

Configuration
-------------

[](#configuration)

The module offers the following configuration:

- **`Template files suffix`** The suffix of the Latte template files, defaults to `latte`.
- **`Default layout file`** Layout that all views will extend from unless overwritten.
- **`Provide ProcessWire API variables in Latte templates`** API variables (`$pages`, `$input`, `$config`...) are accessible in Latte, e.g. `{$config}` for the config API variable.
- **`Simplified path resolution`** Enable Blade-style dot syntax for directory traversal. [See below](#simplified-path-resolution).
- **`Auto refresh templates (recompile)`** Recompile templates whenever the source code changes.

### Simplified Path Resolution

[](#simplified-path-resolution)

This option will enable two things:

- Allow dot syntax for directory traversal à la Blade.
- Prepend the base view directory to all paths, eliminating the need for endless `../` in subdirectories.

#### Example

[](#example)

Both of these will resolve to `site/templates/views/partials/navigation.latte`:

- Normal resolution: `{include '../../partials/navigation.latte'}`
- Simplified resolution enabled: `{include 'partials.navigation'}`

Extending Latte
---------------

[](#extending-latte)

It is possible to extend Latte after it has been initialized by the module. Hook the method `TemplateEngineLatte::initLatte` to register custom tags, filters, functions etc.

Here is an example how you can use the provided hook to add custom macros and filters.

```
wire()->addHookAfter('TemplateEngineLatte::initLatte', function (HookEvent $event) {
    /** @var Latte\Engine */
    $latte = $event->arguments('latte');

    // Add filter
    $latte->addFilter('lower', function ($str) { return strtolower($str); });

    // Add custom tags via extensions
    $latte->addExtension(new FooExtension);
});
```

> The above hook can be put in your `site/init.php` file. If you prefer to use modules, put it into the module's `init()`method and make sure that the module is auto loaded.
