functions.php $twig->addFilter error when installed Timber via Composer #61
Description
I typically install the Timber plugin via the WP admin, so maybe I am missing something, however, when I install Timber plugin via Composer and use this starter theme, I am getting the following error.
Fatal error: Uncaught TypeError: Argument 1 passed to Twig_Environment::addFilter() must be an instance of Twig_Filter, string given, called in /app/wp-content/themes/timber-starter-theme/functions.php on line 58 and defined in /app/wp-content/themes/timber-starter-theme/vendor/twig/twig/lib/Twig/Environment.php on line 748 TypeError: Argument 1 passed to Twig_Environment::addFilter() must be an instance of Twig_Filter, string given, called in /app/wp-content/themes/timber-starter-theme/functions.php on line 58 in /app/wp-content/themes/timber-starter-theme/vendor/twig/twig/lib/Twig/Environment.php on line 748 Call Stack: 0.0010 362376 1. {main}() /app/index.php:0 0.0011 362664 2. require('/app/wp-blog-header.php') /app/index.php:17 0.0505 2933488 3. require_once('/app/wp-includes/template-loader.php') /app/wp-blog-header.php:19 0.0559 2976504 4. include('/app/wp-content/themes/timber-starter-theme/page.php') /app/wp-includes/template-loader.php:74 0.0653 3064960 5.

This error is being thrown by the following line inside of starter theme's functions.php file on line # 58
function add_to_twig( $twig ) {
/* this is where you can add your own functions to twig */
$twig->addExtension( new Twig_Extension_StringLoader() );
$twig->addFilter('myfoo', new Twig_SimpleFilter('myfoo', array($this, 'myfoo')));
return $twig;
}If I change the function to the following it goes away and works correctly:
function add_to_twig( $twig ) {
/* this is where you can add your own functions to twig */
$twig->addExtension( new Twig_Extension_StringLoader() );
$twig->addFilter( new Twig_SimpleFilter('myfoo', array($this, 'myfoo')) );
return $twig;
}To be honest I am not sure if I am doing something wrong, or if this is a bug. If it is I will be more than happy to fix it and submit a PR.
