Blade
=====

[](#blade)

The standalone version of [Laravel's Blade templating engine](https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/blade)for use outside of Laravel.

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

[](#installation)

Install using composer:

```
composer require lexdubyna/blade
```

Usage
-----

[](#usage)

Create a Blade instance by passing it the folder(s) where your view files are located, and a cache folder. Render a template by calling the `make` method. More information about the Blade templating engine can be found on .

```
use Lexdubyna\Blade\Blade;

$blade = new Blade('views', 'cache');

echo $blade->make('homepage', ['name' => 'John Doe'])->render();
```

Alternatively you can use the shorthand method `render`:

```
echo $blade->render('homepage', ['name' => 'John Doe']);
```

You can also extend Blade using the `directive()` function:

```
$blade->directive('datetime', function ($expression) {
    return "";
});
```

Which allows you to use the following in your blade template:

```
Current date: @datetime($date)

```

The Blade instances passes all methods to the internal view factory. So methods such as `exists`, `file`, `share`, `composer` and `creator` are available as well. Check out the [original documentation](https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/views) for more information.

Components
----------

[](#components)

You can make use of [view components](https://laravel.com/docs/8.x/blade#components) with this package.

To be able to use class-based and anonymous components, you need to register them:

```
$blade->compiler()->components([
    'alert'                     => App\View\Components\Alert::class, //
    'components.anonymous.link' => 'link'                            //
])
```

### Class-based Components

[](#class-based-components)

Your class component has to extend `Jenssegers\Blade\ViewComponent` and have a protected property `$template`:

```
namespace App\View\Components;

use Lexdubyna\Blade\ViewComponent;

class Alert extends ViewComponent
{
    // all the public properties will be exposed inside the template
    public string $type;
    public string $message;

    protected string $template = 'components.alert'; // $template is required, it's a path to a blade template file

    public function __construct($type, $message)
    {
        $this->type = $type;
        $this->message = $message;
    }
}
```

TODO:
-----

[](#todo)

- tests for components
- make compatible with `illuminate/view^9.0`
