Twig is a template engine for the PHP programming language. Its syntax originates from Jinja and Django templates.[3] It's an open source product[4] licensed under a BSD License and maintained by Fabien Potencier. The initial version was created by Armin Ronacher. Symfony2 PHP framework comes with a bundled support for Twig as its default template engine.[5]
Example
The example below demonstrates some basic features of Twig.
{% extends "base.html" %}
{% block navigation %}
<ul id="navigation">
{% for item in navigation %}
<li>
<a href="{{ item.href }}">
{% if 2 == item.level %} {% endif %}
{{ item.caption|upper }}
</a>
</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
{% endblock navigation %}
Twig defines three kinds of delimiters:
- {% ... %}, which is used to execute statements, such as for-loops.
- {{ ... }}, which is used to print the content of variables or the result of evaluating an expression.
- {# ... #}, which is used to add comments in the templates. These comments aren't included in the rendered page.
Features
- complex control flow
- automatic escaping
- template inheritance
- variable filters
- i18n support (gettext)
- macros
- fully extendable[3][6]
See also
- Smarty
- Twital, a template engine that compile its sources into Twig templates, adding some features as context-aware escaping, attribute-expression and creating more readable templates.
