PHP To JavaScript Variables

Build Status , _(*1)

Simple package which allows easy sharing of variables from PHP to JavaScript. This is a rewrite of the laracasts/utilities package. I was prompted to do this due to the aformentioned package requiring PHP 5.4+, and I disliked their design., _(*2)

Installation

composer.json, _(*3)

"require": {
    ...
    "rosio/php-to-javascript-variables": "~1.0"
}

config/app.php, _(*4)

'providers' => array(

    ...
    'Rosio\PhpToJavaScriptVariables\PhpToJavaScriptVariablesServiceProvider',

),

Usage

controllers\HomeController.php, _(*5)

    public function showWelcome()
    {
        JSLocalize::put(array(
            'variableName' => 'variableValue',
            'anotherVariable' => array(1, 2, 3)
        ));

        return View::make('hello');
    }
