Symfony Smarty Extension
========================

[](#symfony-smarty-extension)

> Use [Smarty](http://www.smarty.net/) in your templates.

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

[](#installation)

Install using [composer](https://getcomposer.org/):

```
composer require 'vierwd/symfony-smarty'

```

### Usage in controllers

[](#usage-in-controllers)

To use smarty templates for your controller just extend the `Vierwd\Symfony\Smarty\Controller\SmartyController`. You can then use `$this->render('error/error.tpl')` to render a Smarty template.

#### Example

[](#example)

```
// src/Controller/IndexController.php
namespace App\Controller;

use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Request;
use Symfony\Component\HttpFoundation\Response;
use Symfony\Component\Routing\Annotation\Route;

use Vierwd\Symfony\Smarty\Controller\SmartyController;

class IndexController extends SmartyController {

	/**
	 * @Route("/", name="index")
	 */
	public function index(Request $request): Response {
		return $this->render('index/index.tpl', ['message' => 'Hello from Smarty']);
	}
}
```

```
{* templates/index/index.tpl *}

{$message}
```

### Pre-defined variables

[](#pre-defined-variables)

There are some variables, that are always available to your templates:

Variable NameContentsapp`Symfony\Bridge\Twig\AppVariable`tagRenderer`Symfony\WebpackEncoreBundle\Asset\TagRenderer`imageServiceAn image service which can be used to scale images using imagemagickauthChecker`AuthorizationCheckerInterface`### Pre-defined smarty functions, blocks and modifiers

[](#pre-defined-smarty-functions-blocks-and-modifiers)

- csrf\_token
- integer
- url
- path
- svg
- twig
- widget
- inlineCSS

### Power-Block: twig

[](#power-block-twig)

If you still need some twig logic, you can embed twig template code within your Smarty templates:

#### Twig in Smarty template

[](#twig-in-smarty-template)

```
{$message}
{twig}
	{literal}
		{{ form_start(createForm) }}
		{{ form_rest(createForm) }}
	{/literal}
{/twig}
```
