Placeholder

Simple library to use placeholder in your layout file and then inject content from other file.

So, I needed a way to write my code in my view files and yet make them appear after the js files have been loaded, say jQuery. So, I created this simple library.

This can also help in writing navigation bar in another file and then having it appear in the layout where you like it.

Usage

You can capture content to be displayed in the following way

<?php
use Coffee\Placeholder\PlaceholderManager;
?>
<?php PlaceholderManager::captureStart('to-end'); ?>
YOUR CONTENT HERE
<?php PlaceholderManager::captureEnd('to-end'); ?>

Here, the parameter provided to captureStart and captureEnd to-end is the key of your content. You need this key to access the content in your layout file. You can render the content of a key using the following code

<?= PlaceholderManager::getContent('to-end'); ?>

This will render all the content that have been captured under the key to-end . If no content have been captured, it will not render anything.
