STEREO Render
=============

[](#stereo-render)

### PHP abstraction functions to help more easily render views for [Slim Framework](https://www.slimframework.com/) (v4) with plain text, HTML, JSON, and Blade (using [BladeOne](https://github.com/EFTEC/BladeOne))

[](#php-abstraction-functions-to-help-more-easily-render-views-for-slim-framework-v4-with-plain-text-html-json-and-blade-using-bladeone)

These functions aim to provide a simplified and standardized interface for rendering various types of data-driven responses as PSR-7 objects for use with Slim.

Although this package can be used with any Slim4 project, it's specifically designed for use with the [STEREO](https://github.com/jyoungblood/stereo) internet toolkit.

Installation
============

[](#installation)

Easy install with composer:

```
composer require jyoungblood/stereo-render

```

```
use Stereo\render;
require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';
```

Requirements
------------

[](#requirements)

- [Slim Framework](https://www.slimframework.com/) 4
- [BladeOne](https://github.com/EFTEC/BladeOne) >= 4.13
- PHP >= 7.4

Usage
=====

[](#usage)

render::html($request, $response, $string, $status = 200)
---------------------------------------------------------

[](#renderhtmlrequest-response-string-status--200)

Renders a string as HTML. Returns a standard Slim (PSR-7) response object with optional HTTP status code (200 by default).

```
$app->get('/', function ($req, $res, $args) {

  return render::html($req, $res, 'Hey whats up');

});
```

Additionally, a path to an HTML file (relative to the `public` web root) can be specified to load and render instead of a string:

```
$app->get('/', function ($req, $res, $args) {

  return render::html($req, $res, 'hey/whats-up.html');

});
```

render::text($request, $response, $string, $status = 200)
---------------------------------------------------------

[](#rendertextrequest-response-string-status--200)

Renders a string as plain text. Returns a standard Slim (PSR-7) response object with optional HTTP status code (200 by default).

```
$app->get('/', function ($req, $res, $args) {

  return render::text($req, $res, 'Hey whats up');

});
```

render::redirect($request, $response, $string, $status = 302)
-------------------------------------------------------------

[](#renderredirectrequest-response-string-status--302)

Renders a redirect as standard Slim (PSR-7) response object with optional HTTP status code.

```
  return render::redirect($req, $res, 'https://google.com/');
```

render::json($request, $response, $data, $status = 200)
-------------------------------------------------------

[](#renderjsonrequest-response-data-status--200)

Renders an array or data as standard Slim (PSR-7) response object with `application/json` content type and optional HTTP status code.

```
$app->get('/json/', function ($req, $res, $args) {

  $data = [
    'name' => 'Ringo',
    'friends' => [
      'Paul', 'George', 'John'
    ]
  ];

  return render::json($req, $res, $data);

});
```

render::blade($request, $response, $parameters, $status = 200)
--------------------------------------------------------------

[](#renderbladerequest-response-parameters-status--200)

Renders a specific Blade template with an array of data. Returns a standard Slim (PSR-7) response object with optional HTTP status code (200 by default).

```
$app->get('/', function ($req, $res, $args) {

  return render::blade($req, $res, [
    'template' => 'index',
    'data' => [
      'name' => 'Ringo',
      'friends' => [
        'Paul', 'George', 'John'
      ]
    ],
  ], 200); // optional status code, 200 by default

});
```

The Blade compiler expects views and cache files to be directories called `views` and `cache`, respectively, in the `public` web root. These defaults, along with the compilation mode, can be customized in your `.env` file:

```
BLADE_VIEWS_PATH = "views"
BLADE_CACHE_PATH = "cache"
BLADE_MODE = "AUTO"
```

The compilation mode can be set to `AUTO` (default), `SLOW`, `FAST`, or `DEBUG`, see the [BladeOne](https://github.com/EFTEC/BladeOne/blob/master/lib/BladeOne.php#L44) source for more information.

Check out the [BladeOne](https://github.com/EFTEC/BladeOne) and official [Blade](https://laravel.com/docs/blade) documentation to see everything you can do with this incredible templating syntax.

The [BladeOne HTML Extension](https://github.com/EFTEC/BladeOneHtml) is also included for conveniently creating form components with near-native performance.

render::blade\_template($parameters)
------------------------------------

[](#renderblade_templateparameters)

Renders a specicific Blade template with data array the same as `render::blade()`, but returns raw html instead of a PSR-7 response.

```
$app->get('/', function ($req, $res, $args) {

  echo render::blade_template('email/test', [
    'link' => 'https://jy.hxgf.io',
  ]);

  return $res;
});
```
