Sergio,

Any chance you could tell the basics of how you did it? I'm pretty sure I'm not the only one that would like to know.

Thanks!

This is for an old version of F3, but the principles are pretty much the same.

Okay so I looked through that tutorial and I was able to hook in Twig easily enough, but I'd like to tie it into the framework a little more. At least enough so that I don't have to do "global $twig" where ever I need to use it. I tried doing something like $f3->set('twig', $twig); so I could use $this->f3->get('twig)->render() but it didn't seem to like that.

Does anybody have any suggestions for doing something like this?

I played around with twig before deciding to stick with the f3 templating. I know this worked in my testing, don't know if it's optimal or such, but I had this in my index.php...

//Twig

require_once 'lib/Twig/Autoloader.php';

Twig_Autoloader::register();

$loader = new Twig_Loader_Filesystem('ui');

$twig = new Twig_Environment($loader, array(

    'cache' => $f3->get('TEMP'),

'debug' => true,

));

$f3->set('twig',$twig);

...Then you can call twig with $f3->get('twig')->twigfunction.

Thanks for that Matt. That's at least what I *thought* I did but I'll try it again. 

The other thing I was wondering is if there's an OO way of getting the hotspots that are automatic to F3 like @BASE and @site available to Twig in the same manner. It's not a big deal but would be nice to have.

According to the tutorial, you should do

{{ 'BASE'|f3 }}

You can get all variables set using f3->set() the same way.

Or you can do

$twig->addGlobal( 'BASE', $f3->get( 'BASE' ) );

So, you can get it in your templates like {{ BASE }}

I agree. F3 templating engine allows you run PHP code in the template, I've not been able to do the same with twig without writing my own filters or tags.

Is there a way to write filters in F3?

[ikkez]

What do you mean with own filters?

[Bond]

I meant with F3 you could just write {{ json_decode( @var ) }} with Twig you have to do {{ var | json_decode }} after writing a filter function.

I was asking if there was a way to write custom filters in F3, something like

{{ var | custom_filter }}

Not that I need it anyway, just asking.

[ikkez]

ah yeah, understand.
yes this is already there, but a still pending enhancement, see: https://github.com/bcosca/fatfree/pull/550
