FAQ

After the download, you have to make one include require_once('vendor/autoload.php');. After that you have to import the classes with use statements.

Example:
If you use only one package a project is not needed. But if you use more then one package, without a project it is not possible to import the classes with use statements.

In general, it is recommended to use always a project to download your libraries. In an application normally there is more than one library needed.
Some PHP packages are not free to download and because of that hosted in private repositories. In this case some credentials are needed to access such packages. Please use the auth.json textarea to insert credentials, if a package is coming from a private repository. You can look here for more information.

  • Some hosting areas are not accessible by a terminal or SSH. Then it is not possible to use Composer.
  • To use Composer is sometimes complicated. Especially for beginners.
  • Composer needs much resources. Sometimes they are not available on a simple webspace.
  • If you are using private repositories you don't need to share your credentials. You can set up everything on our site and then you provide a simple download link to your team member.
  • Simplify your Composer build process. Use our own command line tool to download the vendor folder as binary. This makes your build process faster and you don't need to expose your credentials for private repositories.
Please rate this library. Is it a good library?

Twig templates for the Giiant Yii2 code generator

What is it?

This extension provides templates for the CRUD models from Giiant in the twig templating language. There were no templates available for twig yet in the yii2 context, so this should save a lot of time for those wanting to work with twig :)

That means a form will not look like this:

    <?= $form->field($model, 'name') ?>
    <?= $form->field($model, 'email') ?>
    <?= $form->field($model, 'subject') ?>
    <?= $form->field($model, 'body')->textArea(['rows' => 6]) ?>
    <?= $form->field($model, 'verifyCode')->widget(Captcha::className(), [
        'template' => '<div class="row"><div class="col-lg-3">{image}</div><div class="col-lg-6">{input}</div></div>',
    ]) ?>
    <div class="form-group">
        <?= Html::submitButton('Submit', ['class' => 'btn btn-primary', 'name' => 'contact-button']) ?>
    </div>

But more like this

{% set form = active_form_begin({
    'action': ['index'],
    'method': 'get'
}) %}

{{ form.field(model, 'id') }}
{{ form.field(model, 'name') }}
{{ form.field(model, 'owner_name') }}
{{ form.field(model, 'owner_avatar') }}
{{ form.field(model, 'description') }}

<div class="form-group">
    {{ html.submitButton('Search', {'class' : 'btn btn-primary'}) | raw }}
    {{ html.resetButton('Reset', {'class' : 'btn btn-primary'}) | raw }}
</div>

{{ active_form_end() }}

Installation

The preferred way to install this extension is through composer.

composer.phar require esquire900/yii2-giiant-twig:"*"

The generators are registered automatically in the application bootstrap process, if the Gii module is enabled

Usage

Visit your application's Gii (eg. index.php?r=gii and choose the CRUD generator from the main menu screen. Make sure that:

For basic usage instructions see the Yii2 Guide section for Gii.

Command Line

Gii creates php files by default, which cannot be easily changed. This extention generates .twig.php files, to convert them automagically, simply run the following from the root folder

./yii giiant-twig

(for basic app only, but you can simply change the behavior for other templates)

Why should I even learn this stuff?

Not only because it's easier to read for non-coders (like those hipster designers nowadays), but it forces you to only use "view" logic in your views, which gives cleaner code and better serparation of responsibilities.

Thanks
