Usage

Loading Twig Library

$this->load->library('twig');

You can override the default configuration:

$config = [
	'paths' => ['/path/to/twig/templates', VIEWPATH],
	'cache' => '/path/to/twig/cache',
];
$this->load->library('twig', $config);

Rendering Templates

Render Twig template and output to browser:

$this->twig->display('welcome', $data);

Above code renders views/welcome.twig.

Note: I've changed the method name from render() to display(). Now render() method returns string only.

Render Twig template:

$output = $this->twig->render('welcome', $data);

Above code renders views/welcome.twig.

Adding a Global Variable

$this->twig->addGlobal('sitename', 'My Awesome Site');

Getting Twig_Environment Instance

$twig = $this->twig->getTwig();

Supported CodeIgniter Helpers

base_url
site_url
anchor
form_open
form_close
form_error
form_hidden
set_value

Some helpers are added the functionality of auto-escaping for security.

Adding Your Functions

You can add your functions with configuration:

$config = [
	'functions' => ['my_helper'],
	'functions_safe' => ['my_safe_helper'],
];
$this->load->library('twig', $config);

If your function explicitly outputs HTML code, you will want the raw output to be printed. In such a case, use functions_safe, and you have to make sure the output of the function is XSS free.
