view parser throws InvalidArgumentException

[gustavojm]

$this->parser = \Config\Services::parser();

render() method called automatically with $file = /var/www/codeigniter4/application/Views/_database.tpl.php

throws InvalidArgumentException on line 147 of Parser.php

I'll need to see a little more code, because it you do what you've shown:

$parser = Services::parser();
$parser->render();

you get an error because render requires a string value in the first parameter.

Thanks for your prompt reply. I don't even call the render() method. It gets called by CI I think

the source code of the method in the controller is the following:

public function parsear() {
        $db = \Config\Database::connect();
        $this->parser = \Config\Services::parser();
        $table_name = 'users';
        $fields = $db->getFieldNames($table_name);
        print_r($fields);
}

the attached file is the "view-source" of the page because the backtrace does not get rendered.

CI doesn't automatically call the render method, so that would be in your code somewhere. Maybe a parent controller?

Seems to be called by
BASEPATH/Debug/Toolbar/Collectors/Database.php : 186

		$output = $parser->setData($data)
				->render('_database.tpl');

I have similar problem. I have posted details on forum

@gustavojm Doh! Silly me. Forgot the toolbar used the Parser. Looking into it.
