TWIG
- We provide a custom subset of Twig, a PHP-based template engine, designed for generating text-based formats like HTML and PDF from template
.twigfiles - Templates support basic Twig constructs:
{{ variable }}to output values{% … %}for control logic such as loops or conditionals.
Template Syntax & Usage
-
A typical
.twigfile might render dynamic values like:twigKopierenBearbeiten<h1>Welcome to {{ shopName }}</h1>
{% for product in products %}
<li><a href="{{ product.href }}">{{ product.name }}</a></li>
{% endfor %}where variables and loops drive dynamic content.
-
Variable access uses dot notation (e.g.
{{ user.firstName }}), and you can define or reassign variables within blocks using{% set … %} -
Comments in templates are marked with
{# … #}and are excluded from the output, useful for documentation or temporary deactivation
Key Features
- Our engine only supports a limited subset of standard Twig features, tailored to its platform; supported syntax is documented in the reference
- Templates can produce various formats, not just HTML—examples include invoices or other PDF-based documents.
