I defined my route so:
$app->get('/about', function ($request, $response, $args) {
return $this->view->render($response, 'about.twig');
})->setName('about.page');
I'm interested to get route link by name like: {% get_route('about.page') %}
How can I achieve this?
In Slim3 there is the path_for(name) function. F.ex:
{{ path_for('about.page') }}
Reference: http://www.slimframework.com/docs/features/templates.html
The slim/twig-view component exposes a custom path_for() function to your Twig templates. You can use this function to generate complete URLs to any named route in your Slim application. The path_for() function accepts two arguments:
1 A route name
2 A hash of route placeholder names and replacement values
Note: The path_for uses the function of the router which is $router->pathFor(..)
Why not to use {%
{% is a control structur in twig, Message: Unknown "path_for" tag in "base.twig" at line XX. is displayed because there is no such tag as control structur defined so twig doesn't know that this is actually a function.
So use the output structur in twig {{.
Is this possible?
Yes.
IIRC
{{ path_for('about.page') }}

I'm trying to implement a custom Django tag that will formulate an import statement in Javascript to load my vue3 app as well as its components template html files using a get request in axios.
The custom tag in my templatetags directory looks like this:
templatetags/vuecomponents.py
from django import template
from django.templatetags.static import static
register = template.Library()
#register.simple_tag
def v_load_app_component(app_name, script_name, components):
components = components.strip("[]").split(", ")
app_script = static(f"js/{script_name}.js")
comps = [static(f"components/{name}.html") for name in components]
return f"import {{{ app_name }}} from \"{app_script}?{components[0]}={comps[0]}\""
Right now it only loads the first component as I just want a prototype. The only issue is when I drop this into a template like so:
createpost.html
<script type="module">
{% v_load_app_component "creator" "internalpostform" "[internalpostform]" %}
// OUTPUTS:
// import { creator } from "static/js/internalpostform.js?internalpostform=internalpostform.html"
creator.mount("#app")
</script>
It outputs the relevant import statement as:
import { creator } from "static/js/internalpostform.js?internalpostform=internalpostform.html"
With the double quotes escaped. Even when I tried to apply the safe filter ({% v_load_app_component "creator" "internalpostform" "[internalpostform]"|safe %}) it still escaped the output of my custom tag function.
How can I make it to where the output of my custom tag doesn't automatically have symbols converted to html entities?
I found it after a little digging in Django's documentation. The safe filter is only for variables i.e. {{ variable|safe }} but does not apply to a tag {% tag "argument"|safe %}.
To prevent Django from escaping the output of a tag you simply use {% autoescape off %}
{% autoescape off %}
{% v_load_app_component "creator" "internalpostform" "[internalpostform]" %}
{% endautoescape %}
This results in the desired behavior.
I am trying to interpret a variable inside another. Something like:
// list of variables
foo: 'test';
bar: 'this is {{ foo }}'
// Twig
{{ bar }}
// result :
this is a test
I try this but I think it is old : Twig variables in twig variable
You can do this with template_from_string Twig function.
{% set foo = 'test' %}
{{ include(template_from_string('this is {{ foo }}')) }}
The template will render with the context of the containing template, meaning, it will have access to all variables that the main template has access to.
Note that template_from_string Twig function is not available by default. It only becomes available once you activate Twig\Extension\StringLoaderExtension extension found in Twig package.
This question maybe kind of silly but I'm a newbie for symfony anyway.
prescenario I pass a variable from controller into index.html.twig by doing this
return $this->render('index/index.html.twig', [ 'department'=>$departments,'URILink'=>$URILink,'departmentDetail'=>$departmentDetails,'contentCell'=>$this->mContentCell ]);
After using {% dump %} it shows me
"department" => array:3 [▶]
"URILink" => "http://localhost/index/department/"
"departmentDetail" => array:1 [▶]
"contentCell" => "department.html.twig"
Then I need to reuse the variable contentCell as string in template to form syntax similar to this ;
<div>{{ include ('department.html.twig'),[departmentDetail:departmentDetail]</div>
For my first attempt I tried this,
<div> {{ include ({{ContentCell}}),[departmentDetail:departmentDetail]}} </div>
Unfortunately it showed me this error
A hash key must be a quoted string, a number, a name, or an expression
enclosed in parentheses (unexpected token "punctuation" of value "{".
Any idea how could I use the variable
contentCell as string value appropriately?
try this:
{% include contentCell with { departmentDetail : departmentDetail} %}
Answer here pass data to twig
You can include a template like this per:
{{ include('YourBundle:ControllerName:yourAction.html.twig', {'variableName': yourData}) }}
Or like this per http://twig.sensiolabs.org/doc/tags/include.html
{% include 'template.html' with {'foo': 'bar'} %}
after try'n try at last I found the the trick how to do it
i take similar analogy for
{{dump(var)}}
so attempt to do this
{{include (contentCell,{'departmentDetail' : departmentDetail}) }}
and it work like charm :) nice
I try to call a static helper method inside Twig (Timber).
{{ function('Theme\Helpers::get_template_name') }}
Warning: call_user_func_array() expects parameter 1 to be a valid
callback, class 'ThemeHelpers' not found in
/var/www/html/wp-content/plugins/timber-library/lib/Twig.php on line
268.
Does anyone know how to call a method of a different class inside Twig?
As far as I know you can't call PHP classes directly from your twig template.
What you can do is setting up a Twig filter which communicates with your class
and returns the needed value.
You would have this in your php controller file that is responsible to load your twig template:
<?php
function twg_get_template_name() {
# edit this according to the implementation of your class:
return Helpers::get_template_name();
}
function add_to_twig($twig) {
/* this is where you can add your own fuctions to twig */
$twig->addExtension(new Twig_Extension_StringLoader());
$twig->addFilter('twg_get_template_name', new Twig_Filter_Function('twg_get_template_name'));
return $twig;
}
add_filter('get_twig', 'add_to_twig');
In your Twig template you would call the filter like this:
{{ ''|twg_get_template_name }}
Because it's a filter function it expects a value "to filter", so pass at least an empty string.
If I were in that situation I probably would determine the name of the template in your
controller and send the value to your Twig template directly instead of calling the php class
via a filter-function.
You can call static functions from a Twig file in Timber using the array notation, where first item is the name of the class and the second item the name of the static method you want to call:
{{ function( [ 'Theme\Helpers', 'get_template_name' ] ) }}
Thanks for your answer.
I tried your approach - it works. But using a filter feels a little hacky, especially when no value is passed. Why not create a timber function the same way as a filter?
Bridging own functions from plain php into twig is not great, but I also don't see another solution to this.
After playing around a little, I came up with a different approach. I now fixed my need by customizing the Timber Object and adding a template property to the post variable.
Looks something like this:
class OnepagePost extends TimberPost {
var $_template;
// Add template property to Twig Object
public function template() {
return Helpers::get_template_name( $this->custom['_wp_page_template'] );
}
}
Then inside the .php file where the Twig View gets called, I called the custom object like this:
$context['posts'] = new Timber\PostQuery( $args, 'OnepagePost' );
Timber::render('onepager.twig', $context);
Inside the Twig Template I'm able to get my custom property very easy (in my way the template):
{% for post in posts %}
{% include ["section/section-#{post.template}.twig"] %}
{% endfor %}
I'm trying to customize a specific widget, like in the documentation : http://symfony.com/doc/current/cookbook/form/form_customization.html#how-to-customize-an-individual-field
The problem is that in this custom block, I need to use a variable from my actual template. I thought "blocks have access to variables from outer scopes", but apparently not in this case :
{% extends "CDASvBundle::layout.html.twig" %}
{% block _contact_activity1_widget %}
<select name="contact[activity1]">
{% for key, child_contact_categories in contact_categories_tab %}
<option value="{{key}}">{{child_contact_categories}}</option>
{% endfor %}
</select>
It's saying that contact_categories_tab is undefined, but outside of this block (in the normal content block for example), it works !
I tried something like :
{% use 'form_div_layout.html.twig' with contact_categories_tab as contact_categories_tab %}
But that doesn't either.. Though I'm not sure I understand if I have to use use and how !
I see one other solution that I haven't tried yet : put this customization in another template. But I don't really want to do that (few lines in a new template), there should be a way to do that in only ONE template ?!
Finally found the answer in a previous post :
Each symfony form type extents AbstractType class.
AbstactType class has method:
public function buildView(FormView $view, FormInterface $form, array $options)
{
$view->set('img_src', '120x100.jpg');
$view->set('my_variable', $foo);
}
You can create this method on your form type and next in your twig:
{{ asset(img_src) }}
