This code gives error in twig.
{{ url( '/?page=signin'
{% if sidebar %} ~ '&sidebar=' ~ {{ sidebar }}{% endif %}
{% if post %} ~ '&post=' ~ {{ post }}{% endif %}
{% if next or page %} ~ '&next=' ~ {{ next ?: page }} {% endif %} ) }}
What would be the better way to do this type of concatenation?
This would work, but it require that each var (sidebar, post…) to be defined. It should contain value, or be false (or null). Ampersands are escaped automatically. If you'll use &sidebar it will be double-escaped (&).
{{ '/?page=signin' ~ (sidebar ? '&sidebar=' ~ sidebar) ~ (post ? '&post=' ~ post) }}

I'm having following situation where I need to check for global ENV variable (dev || prod)
Using twig v1.x and Timber v1.x
{% if is_prod %}
{% cache 'homepage;#{hash_key};' post %}
{% endif %}
...code
{% if is_prod %}
{% endcache %}
{% endif %}
Fatal error: Uncaught Exception: Unexpected "endif" tag (expecting closing tag for the "cache" tag
Is there a workaround for that. tnx
I think you have two typos here:
{% cache 'homepage;#{hash_key};' post %)
to
{% cache 'homepage;#{hash_key};' post %}
and
{% endcache '%)
to
{% endcache %}
I would like to include the same variables in different templates
vars_catchphrase.twig
{% set catchphrase_size = '' %}
{% if var.tile_catchphrase|length <= 4 %}
{% set catchphrase_size = 'size-lg' %}
{% elseif var.tile_catchphrase|length >= 5 and var.tile_catchphrase|length <= 8 %}
{% set catchphrase_size = 'size-md' %}
{% elseif var.tile_catchphrase|length >= 9 and var.tile_catchphrase|length <= 12 %}
{% set catchphrase_size = 'size-sm' %}
{% elseif var.tile_catchphrase|length >= 13 %}
{% set catchphrase_size = 'size-xs' %}
{% endif %}
I tried to include with this (because the context is sometime different) :
{% include 'vars_catchphrase.twig' with { 'var' : post } %}
When the context is different from post I use another one :
{% include 'vars_catchphrase.twig' with { 'var' : item } %}
example.twig
{% for item in list %}
{% include 'vars_catchphrase.twig' with { 'var' : item } %}
<p class="catchphrase {{ catchphrase_size }}">{{ item.title }}</p>
{% endfor %}
The variable is empty. Can I have some help please ?
Templates you include have their own variable scope, this means variables defined inside this template will not be known out the template. This said, included templates also can't alter the parent's context (by default), this is due to twig passing the context array by value, not by reference.
foo.twig
{% set foo = 'foo' %}
{% include 'bar.twig' %}
{{ foo }}
bar.twig
{% set foo = 'bar' %}
The example above will still output foo
In order to solve your problem, I'd suggest adding a custom filter to twig
<?php
$twig->addFilter(new \Twig\TwigFilter('catchphrase_size', function($value) {
switch(true) {
case strlen($value->tile_catchphrase) >= 13: return 'size-xs';
case strlen($value->tile_catchphrase) >= 9: return 'size-sm';
case strlen($value->tile_catchphrase) >= 5: return 'size-md';
default: return 'size-lg';
}
});
This way you can use the filter where ever,
{% for item in list %}
<p class="catchphrase {{ item|catchphrase_size }}">{{ item.title }}</p>
{% endfor %}
can anybody help convert to twig this piece of code.
foreach ($methods as $method){?>
<li><?php echo ${'tab_express' . $method}; ?></li>
<?php } ?>
I have tried this:
{% for method in methods %} <li>{{ 'tab_express' ~ method }}</li>
{% endfor %}
But this part: {{ 'tab_express' ~ method }} does not work. What wrong?
*EDIT:
need retrieve names of the tabs from the controller
foreach ($data['methods'] as $method){
$data['tab_express' . $method] = $this->language->get('tab_express' . $method);
}
*
I answered below
solution for my question i found.
in controller should be:
foreach ($data['methods'] as $method){
$data['tab_express'][$method] = $this->language->get('tab_express' . $method);
Twig:
{% for method in methods %}
<li>{{ tab_express[method] }} </li>
{% endfor %}
In controller it should be:
{{ attribute(_context, 'tab_express' ~ method) }}
One question please.
{{ dump(app.user.slugName) }}
If I do the above snippet in Twig, I get the slugName of the user loged ("my-user-2", i.e.) in the app (SlugName is an atribute of the entity user). Ok & Correct. But... I want to order this action from a var (var from BD data)
I have a variable named option which is set like this:
{% set option = 'app.user.slugName' %}
But when I'm trying output this variable with {{ dump(option)}} it returns app.user.slugName as literal. It does not return my-user-2.
Is there are any way in twig to solve this? It's a function to generate a menu, but some links needs some parameters.
I see what you mean, but Twig can't evaluate expression like that.
To achieve something like that you would need a snippet like this,
{% set value_methods = 'app.user.slugname' %}
{% set option_value = _context %}
{% for method in (value_methods|split('.')) if method != '' %}
{% set option_value = attribute(option_value, (method|replace({'()': '', }))) %}
{% endfor %}
{{ option_value }}
twigfiddle
(edit)
Remember you can create a macro to achieve some reusability for this snippet,
{% import _self as macros %}
{{ macros.evaluate(_context, 'app.user.slugname') }}
{% macro evaluate(context, value_methods) %}
{% set option_value = context %}
{% for method in (value_methods|split('.')) if method != '' %}
{% set option_value = attribute(option_value, (method|replace({'()': '', }))) %}
{% endfor %}
{{ option_value }}
{% endmacro %}
Is it possible to check if given variable is string in Twig ?
Expected solution:
messages.en.yml:
hello:
stranger: Hello stranger !
known: Hello %name% !
Twig template:
{% set title='hello.stranger' %}
{% set title=['hello.known',{'%name%' : 'hsz'}] %}
{% if title is string %}
{{ title|trans }}
{% else %}
{{ title[0]|trans(title[1]) }}
{% endif %}
Is it possible to do it this way ? Or maybe you have better solution ?
Can be done with the test iterable, added in twig1.7, as Wouter J stated in the comment :
{# evaluates to true if the users variable is iterable #}
{% if users is iterable %}
{% for user in users %}
Hello {{ user }}!
{% endfor %}
{% else %}
{# users is probably a string #}
Hello {{ users }}!
{% endif %}
Reference : iterable
Ok, I did it with:
{% if title[0] is not defined %}
{{ title|trans }}
{% else %}
{{ title[0]|trans(title[1]) }}
{% endif %}
Ugly, but works.
I found iterable to not be good enough since other objects can also be iterable, and are clearly different than an array.
Therefore adding a new Twig_SimpleTest to check if an item is_array is much more explicit. You can add this to your app configuration / after twig is bootstrapped.
$isArray= new Twig_SimpleTest('array', function ($value) {
return is_array($value);
});
$twig->addTest($isArray);
Usage becomes very clean:
{% if value is array %}
<!-- handle array -->
{% else %}
<!-- handle non-array -->
{% endif % }
There is no way to check it correctly using code from the box.
It's better to create custom TwigExtension and add custom check (or use code from OptionResolver).
So, as the result, for Twig 3, it will be smth like this
class CoreExtension extends AbstractExtension
{
public function getTests(): array
{
return [
new TwigTest('instanceof', [$this, 'instanceof']),
];
}
public function instanceof($value, string $type): bool
{
return ('null' === $type && null === $value)
|| (\function_exists($func = 'is_'.$type) && $func($value))
|| $value instanceof $type;
}
}
Assuming you know for a fact that a value is always either a string or an array:
{% if value is iterable and value is not string %}
...
{% else %}
...
{% endif %}
This worked good enough for me in a project I was working on. I realize you may need another solution.
