HappyR Excerpt Bundle
=====================

[](#happyr-excerpt-bundle)

The purpose of this is to try Hack programming language. This is not the fastest or the most elegant way of programming. But it is a good bundle to show in a demo. I wrote a blog post about this bundle on [developer.happyr.com](http://developer.happyr.com/symfony-excerpt-bundle-using-hack).

The Excerpt Bundle takes an excerpt from a HTML string. We make sure to return valid HTML and we do not break words.

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

[](#installation)

1. Install with composer:

```
composer require happyr/excerpt-bundle
```

2. Enable the bundle:

```
// app/AppKernel.php

public function registerBundles()
{
    $bundles = [
        // ...
        new HappyR\ExcerptBundle\HappyRExcerptBundle(),
    ];
}
```

Using the Twig filter
---------------------

[](#using-the-twig-filter)

```
{{ 'Hello World Foobar!'|excerpt(17) }}
{# Hello World... #}
```

Default Configuration
---------------------

[](#default-configuration)

```
happy_r_excerpt:
    tail: '...'
    length: 300
```
