    APP_NAMESPACE       => APPPATH,
    'App'               => APPPATH,
    'frost-byte\Twig'   => APPPATH . 'ThirdParty/twig/src'
];
```

Features
--------

[](#features)

### Globals

[](#globals)

#### Source

[](#source)

```
$twig = new \FrostByte\Twig\Twig();
$session = Config\Services::session();
$session->set(['name' => 'frost-byte']);
$twig->addGlobal('session', $session);
$twig->display('view.html', []);
```

#### Template

[](#template)

```

    Greetings, {{session.get('name')}}!

```

### Macros

[](#macros)

```
If organize a collection of macros into in one file, this method allows you to call an individual macro and
use the result within your app.

```

#### Template - **macros.html.twig**

[](#template---macroshtmltwig)

```
{% macro greet(params) %}
Hello, {{params.name}}!
{% endmacro %}
```

#### Source

[](#source-1)

```
$twig = new \FrostByte\Twig\Twig();
$result = $twig->renderTemplateMacro(
    'macros.html',
    'greet',
    ['name' => 'frost-byte']
);
```

### Caching in Google Cloud Storage

[](#caching-in-google-cloud-storage)

```
When running your application as a flexible or standard app in Google App Engine, one option for caching files is to use a Google Cloud Storage Bucket. (You would typically have limited access/resources for altering local files, once the app is deployed.

Another option would be to pre-generate your template cache and deploy it with your app.)

This integration provides an implementation of a Twig CacheInterface.

Set the following values in the config to enable the Cloud Storage cache:

```

```
public $useCloudCache = true;

public $bucket = [
    'name' => 'your-gcs-bucket-name',
    'directory' => 'directory-in-your-bucket'
];
```

### Service Account Authentication

[](#service-account-authentication)

If you are hosting your app using Google Compute Engine or Google App Engine, then the authentication is already performed, and configuring the path to the key file is unnecessary.

However, when using the GoogleCloudCache outside of GCE or GAE, you can set your configuration to point to a key file containing your service account credentials and by setting your Google Cloud **projectId** in **app/Config/Twig.php**.

```
public $keyFilePath = 'path/to/your/keyfile.json';
public $projectId = 'your-gcloud-project-id';
```

Tests
-----

[](#tests)

If you used composer to add the integration to your project, then you can run its tests... `vendor\bin\phpunit vendor\frost-byte\twig\tests`

Notes
-----

[](#notes)

You can learn more about authenticating your service with Google Cloud Services [here](auth).
