• smarty.configure (callable, optional): A callable which takes one argument - Smarty class instance. It is called during provider's register() method. You can use this option to make some custom smarty configuration, for example., _(*5)

Services

Registering

Make sure you place a copy of [Smarty] (http://www.smarty.net) in the vendor/Smarty directory:, _(*6)

use FractalizeR\Smarty\ServiceProvider as SmartyServiceProvider;
define('SMARTY_PATH', __DIR__ . '/../../../../vendor/Smarty');

$app->register(new SmartyServiceProvider(), array(
          'smarty.dir' => SMARTY_PATH,
          'smarty.options' => array(
                'template_dir' => SMARTY_PATH . '/demo/templates',
                'compile_dir' => SMARTY_PATH . '/demo/templates_c',
                'config_dir' => SMARTY_PATH . '/demo/configs',
                'cache_dir' => SMARTY_PATH . '/demo/cache',),));

Note:, _(*7)

Smarty is not compiled into the silex.phar file. You have to add your own copy of [Smarty] (http://www.smarty.net) to your application., _(*8)

Usage

The Smarty provider provides a smarty service:, _(*9)

$app->get('/hello/{name}', function ($name) use ($app) {
    return $app['smarty']->display('hello.tpl', array(
        'name' => $name,
    ));
});

This will render a file named hello.tpl in the configured templates folder you passed in smarty.options., _(*10)

In any Smarty template, the app variable refers to the Application object. So you can access any services from within your view. For example to access $app['request']->getHost(), just put this in your template:, _(*11)

{$app.request->getHost()}
