Description

After integrating Twig with some projects I found the need to create some kind of standard package that can be used & extended by anbody at any project.

This Twig integration includes common global variables & functions required when using Twig in Joomla!

Some highlights:

• Integrates Twig 2.0
• Integrates official Twig extensions
• Global variables to access active application, active document, session, active user, etc.
• Functions to use JLayout, JProfiler, JRoute, JUri, JLanguage, JHtml, etc.
• Integrated cache.
• Integrated debug mode.
• All the extensions are integrated through plugins so you can extend/replace any plugin you need.
• 100% covered by unit tests.
• SonarCloud is used for QA. Check the project in SonarCloud.

Example usage:

JLoader::import('twig.library');

// This will render a twig layout in: templates/{ACTIVE_TEMPLATE}/html/view.html.twig
echo Twig::render('@template/view.html.twig');  

You can find more examples/usages in the documentation;

Installation

• Ensure that your site meets the requirements
• Download latest version from the releases section
• Install zip file in your site through Extension Manager

For a fast test you can now use the integrated examples.html.twig inside the library. Enable debug mode in your Joomla configuration and add this code to wherever you want to display examples (for example in your template index.php):

JLoader::import('twig.library');

echo Twig::render('@library/twig/examples.html.twig');
