This extension provides a `TwigTemplateRenderer` that would allow you to use [Twig](https://twig.symfony.com/) view template engine. Requirements ------------ [](#requirements) - PHP 8.1 - 8.5 Installation ------------ [](#installation) The package could be installed with [Composer](https://getcomposer.org): ``` composer require yiisoft/view-twig ``` General usage ------------- [](#general-usage) In your application, you should specify the configuration for `Twig`(by default, this is `config/common/di/view-twig.php`): ``` use Twig\Environment; use Twig\Loader\FilesystemLoader; use Twig\Loader\LoaderInterface; use Yiisoft\Aliases\Aliases; use Yiisoft\Definitions\Reference; /** @var array $params */ return [ LoaderInterface::class => static fn (Aliases $aliases) => new FilesystemLoader($aliases->get('@views')), Environment::class => [ '__construct()' => [ 'loader' => Reference::to(LoaderInterface::class), 'options' => $params['yiisoft/view-twig']['options'], ], ], ]; ``` Create a `views` directory in your project and add an alias in `config/common/aliases.php`: ``` return [ // ... '@views' => '@root/views', ]; ``` Also add the parameters for `WebView` and `Environment` to `config/common/params.php`: ``` use Psr\Container\ContainerInterface; use Psr\EventDispatcher\EventDispatcherInterface; use Twig\Environment; use Yiisoft\Aliases\Aliases; use Yiisoft\Definitions\DynamicReference; use Yiisoft\Definitions\Reference; use Yiisoft\View\WebView; use Yiisoft\View\Twig\TwigTemplateRenderer; return [ // ... 'yiisoft/view' => [ 'basePath' => '@views', 'defaultExtension' => 'twig', 'renderers' => [ 'twig' => Reference::to(TwigTemplateRenderer::class), ], // ... ], 'yiisoft/view-twig' => [ 'options' => [ 'cache' => DynamicReference::to(static fn (Aliases $aliases) => $aliases->get('@runtime/twig')), 'charset' => 'utf-8', 'debug' => $_ENV['APP_DEBUG'] ?? false, ], ], 'yiisoft/yii-view-renderer' => [ 'viewPath' => '@views', 'layout' => '@views/layout.twig', 'injections' => [ Reference::to(CsrfViewInjection::class), ], ], // ... ]; ``` In your Controller Action or Response Handler, make sure yo use the desired Twig template: ``` return $this->viewRenderer->render('index.twig'); ``` ### Template [](#template) All variables that were in the regular template are also available in the twig template. The default main layout of the [application template](https://github.com/yiisoft/app) will look like this: ``` {% do assetManager.register('App\\Web\\Shared\\Layout\\Main\\MainAsset') %} {% do this.addCssFiles(assetManager.getCssFiles()) %} {% do this.addCssStrings(assetManager.getCssStrings()) %} {% do this.addJsFiles(assetManager.getJsFiles()) %} {% do this.addJsStrings(assetManager.getJsStrings()) %} {% do this.addJsVars(assetManager.getJsVars()) %} {{ this.beginPage()|raw }} {{ this.getTitle() }} {{ this.head()|raw }} {{ this.beginBody()|raw }} .st0 { fill: #40b3d8 } {{- content|raw -}} © {{ "now"|date("Y") }} {{ applicationParams.name }} {{ this.endBody()|raw }} {{ this.endPage(true)|raw }} ``` And the view template of the main page (`site/index`) will be as follows: ``` {% do this.setTitle(applicationParams.name) %} Hello! Let's start something great with Yii3! Don't forget to check the guide. ``` Documentation ------------- [](#documentation) - [Internals](docs/internals.md) If you need help or have a question, the [Yii Forum](https://forum.yiiframework.com/c/yii-3-0/63) is a good place for that.
