Active Link
===========

[![Build Status](https://camo.githubusercontent.com/733a0090cbdfe7b29924dd5eb9fcdee66f0b4421fb7ec96f69cf20bc2f5d6a59/68747470733a2f2f7472617669732d63692e6f72672f686572726572612d696f2f7068702d73696c65782d6163746976652d6c696e6b2e706e673f6272616e63683d6d6173746572)](https://travis-ci.org/herrera-io/php-silex-active-link)

A very simple Silex service provider for checking active links in Twig.

Example
-------

[](#example)

In PHP:

```
use Herrera\Silex\ActiveLinkServiceProvider;
use Silex\Application;
use Silex\Provider\TwigServiceProvider;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;

$app = new Application();

$app->get(
    '/',
    function (Application $app) {
        return $app['twig']->render('test.html.twig');
    }
)->bind('home');

$app->get(
    '/page',
    function (Application $app) {
        return $app['twig']->render('test.html.twig');
    }
)->bind('page');

$app->register(
    new TwigServiceProvider(),
    array(
        'twig.path' => '/path/to/templates'
    )
);

$app->register(
    new ActiveLinkServiceProvider()
);

$app->run(
    Request::create('/page')
);
```

The Twig template:

```

  Home
  Page

```

The result when request `page`:

```

  Home
  Page

```

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

[](#installation)

Use Composer:

```
$ composer require "herrera-io/silex-active-link=~1.0"

```

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

[](#configuration)

There is only one configuration parameter: `active_link.snippet`

The `active_link.snippet` is the result returned if a link is active. By default, the result is ` class="active"` (note that the space is included). Hopefully, this provides you with a far greater degree of flexibility in how you can use the new `active` Twig function.
