php-javascript-constants

A simple tool for porting PHP constant classes to javascript constant objects

Installation

As a dependency

Run composer require pamiris/javascript-constants

-- or --

Add the following line to your composer.json:

{
  "require": {
    "pamiris/javascript-constants": "*"
  }
}

Usage

To get the executable javascript to define the object, pass the classname and an optional target name into the tool; then include the resulting js inside a script tag on your template:

<?php
//src/myprocject/controller.php

...
use Pamiris\JavascriptConstants\Mapper as ConstantMapper;

...
function someAction()
{
  $jsConstants = ConstantMapper::getJavascriptObject('MyNamespace\MyClass');
  $this->renderTemplate('mypage',[
    ...
    'scriptContent' => $jsConstants
  ]);

{# /myproject/page.html.twig #}
{% extends base.html.twig %}
{% block javascripts %}

<script>{{ scriptContent | raw }}</script>
{% endblock %}

TODO

Add Twig extension and bundle to auto-configure.

Notes

This requires ES2015, which is supported in most broswers. Safari will let you overwrite the objects, Chrome and Firefox will not.
