Installation ------------ [](#installation) The easiest way to use the view helpers is via composer, `composer require deanblackborough/bootstrap-4-helpers`, alternatively include the classes in `src/` in your library. Usage ----- [](#usage) Create a view helper is a two step process, you need to call the ViewHelper factory to create the relevant view helper and then you can chain the helpers methods to create your component. ``` $jumbotron = ViewHelper::jumbotron('Heading', 'Content'); echo $jumbotron->fluid()->setBgStyle('primary'); ``` The view helpers ================ [](#the-view-helpers) Alert ----- [](#alert) ### Factory call [](#factory-call) ``` $alert = ViewHelper::alert('Alert message'); ``` ### Methods, can be chained [](#methods-can-be-chained) - `setBgStyle(string $color)` - Set the background colour - `setHeading(string $heading, int $heading_level)` - Set optional heading - `setTextStyle(string $color)` - Set the text colour Badge ----- [](#badge) ### Factory call [](#factory-call-1) ``` $badge = ViewHelper::badge('Label'); ``` ### Methods, can be chained [](#methods-can-be-chained-1) - `asLink()` - As link - `pill()` - Display as pill - `setBgStyle(string $color)` - Set the background colour - `setTextStyle(string $color)` - Set the text colour Button ------ [](#button) ### Factory call [](#factory-call-2) ``` $button = ViewHelper::button('Label'); ``` ### Methods, can be chained [](#methods-can-be-chained-2) - `active()` - Active - `block()` - Display as a full width block - `customClass(string $class)` - Add a custom class - `disabled()` - Set disabled - `large()` - Large button - `setBgStyle(string $color)` - Set the background colour - `setModeButton()` - Render as a button - `setModeInput()` - Render as an input - `setOutlineStyle()` - Outline button - `setUri(string $uri)` - Set URI - `small()` - Small button Column ------ [](#column) ### Factory call [](#factory-call-3) ``` $column = ViewHelper::column('Content'); ``` ### Methods, can be chained [](#methods-can-be-chained-3) - `lg(int $size)` - Set lg column width - `md(int $size)` - Set md column width - `setBgStyle(string $color)` - Set the background colour - `setTextStyle(string $color)` - Set the text colour - `sm(int $size)` - Set sm column width - `xl(int $size)` - Set xl column width - `xs(int $size)` - Set xs column width Jumbotron --------- [](#jumbotron) ### Factory call [](#factory-call-4) ``` $jumbotron = ViewHelper::jumbotron('Heading', 'Content'); ``` ### Methods, can be chained [](#methods-can-be-chained-4) - `fluid()` - Add fluid class - `setBgStyle(string $color)` - Set the background colour - `setHeadingDisplayLevel(int $level)` - Set the display level - `setSubHeading(string $sub_heading)` - Set an optional sub heading - `setTextStyle(string $color)` - Set the text colour Progress bar ------------ [](#progress-bar) ### Factory call [](#factory-call-5) ``` $progressBar = ViewHelper::progressBar(25); ``` ### Methods, can be chained [](#methods-can-be-chained-5) - `animate()` - Animate - `setBgStyle(string $color)` - Set the background colour - `setHeight(int $height)` - Set height - `setLabel(string $label)` - Set a label - `setTextStyle(string $color)` - Set the text colour - `striped()` - Striped background Row --- [](#row) ### Factory call [](#factory-call-6) ``` $row = ViewHelper::row(''); ``` ### Methods, can be chained [](#methods-can-be-chained-6) - `setBgStyle(string $color)` - Set the background colour - `setTextStyle(string $color)` - Set the text colour No tests? ========= [](#no-tests) I'm not adding tests to this library, the tests for the functionality are within the library, this library simply makes it possible to use the view helpers outside of the Zend Framework, I've not added any additional functionality. ### Health Score 26 — LowBetter than 43% of packages Maintenance20 Infrequent updates — may be unmaintained Popularity9 Limited adoption so far Community7 Small or concentrated contributor base Maturity57 Maturing project, gaining track record Bus Factor1 Top contributor holds 100% of commits — single point of failure How is this calculated?**Maintenance (25%)** — Last commit recency, latest release date, and issue-to-star ratio.
