Yii2 renderer
=============

[](#yii2-renderer)

Provides visualization functionality (rendering views) to any component of yii2 application

- simple sintax
- view is searched by classes inheritance

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

[](#installation)

The preferred way to install this extension is through [composer](http://getcomposer.org/download/).

Either run

```
php composer.phar require --prefer-dist iluhansk/yii2-renderer "*"

```

or add

```
"iluhansk/yii2-renderer": "*"

```

to the require section of your `composer.json` file.

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Add RenderBehavior to target class:

```
namespace common\components;

use \yii\base\Component;
use iluhansk\renderer\RenderBehavior;

class Car extends Component {

    public function behaviors() {
        return [
            'renderer' => [
                'class' => RenderBehavior::className(),
                'baseClass' => __CLASS__,
                'baseViewDir' => '@frontend/views/car',
                'defaultView' => 'model',
                'viewNotFound' => '-',
            ]
        ];
    }

}
```

And use rendering in an place:

```
use common\components\Car;

$car = new Car();
echo $car->render(); //render default view (in this example it is "model")
echo $car->render('options',['data'=>'passed','to'=>'view']); //render view "options"
```

Inside view you can access to object by var $context

Example of view search process:
-------------------------------

[](#example-of-view-search-process)

continue of example above:

```
class Sedan extends Car {
...
}
class Econom extends Sedan {
...
}

$car = new Econom();
echo $car->render('options');
//First, a view "options" will be search at @frontend/views/car/sedan/econom directory
//If it is not found, then it will be search at @frontend/views/car/sedan directory
//If it is not found, then it will be search at @frontend/views/car (it from behavior field baseViewDir)
//If it is not found, then it will return viewNotFound text (in this example it is '-')
```
