Carbon.Eel Package for Neos CMS

BEM Helper

Generates BEM classes. The modifiers property can be a string (for one modifier), an array (e.g. ['one', 'two']), or an array with keys and values. If you have an array with keys and values (like a Fusion DataStructure) and a value is true, the key's name gets used for the modifier.

• block (string, required) The name of the block
• element (string) The name of the element, optional
• modifiers (string|array) The name of the modifiers, optional

BEM.array(block, element, modifiers)

Shortcut to Carbon.Array.BEM(block, element, modifiers)

BEM.string(block, element, modifiers)

Shortcut to Carbon.String.BEM(block, element, modifiers)

BEM.modifier(class, modifiers)

Generates a string with BEM classes. The modifiers property can be a string (for one modifier), an array (e.g. ['one', 'two']), or an array with keys and values. If you have an array with keys and values (like a Fusion DataStructure) and the value is true, the key's name gets used for the modifier.

• class (string, required) The name of the class
• modifiers (string|array) The name of the modifiers, optional

Return The string

Array Helper

Carbon.Array.BEM(block, element, modifiers)

Generates an array with BEM classes. The modifiers property can be a string (for one modifier), an array (e.g. ['one', 'two']), or an array with keys and values. If you have an array with keys and values (like a Fusion DataStructure) and the value is true, the key's name gets used for the modifier.

• block (string, required) The name of the block
• element (string) The name of the element, optional
• modifiers (string|array) The name of the modifiers, optional

Return The array

Carbon.Array.chunck(array, length, preserveKeys)

Chunks an array into arrays with length elements. The last chunk may contain less than length elements.

• array (array, required) The array to work on
• length (integer, required) The size of each chunk
• preserveKeys (bool) When set to true, keys will be preserved. Default is false, which will reindex the chunk numerically

Carbon.Array.join(array, separator)

Join the given array recursively using the given separator.

${Carbon.Array.join(array, ',')}

• array (array) The array that should be processed
• separator (string, optional) The separator between the values defaults to ,

Return The converted array as a string

Carbon.Array.extractSubElements(array, preserveKeys)

This method extracts sub-elements to the parent level.

An input array of type:

[
 element1 => [
   0 => 'value1'
 ],
 element2 => [
   0 => 'value2'
   1 => 'value3'
 ],

will be converted to:

[
   0 => 'value1'
   1 => 'value2'
   2 => 'value3'
]

• array (array) The array that should be processed
• preserveKeys (boolean, optional) Option if the key should be preserved, defaults to false

• array_ (iterable|mixed, optional) Optional variable list of additional arrays / values

Returns an array containing all the values of array1 that are present in all the arguments.

Carbon.Array.length(array)

The method counts elements of a given array or a countable object. Return 0 if it is not an countable object.

count = ${Carbon.Array.length(countable)}

Carbon.Array.hasKey(array, key)

Returns a boolean if the array has a specific key

bool = ${Carbon.Array.hasKey(array, key)}

Carbon.Array.hasValue(array, value)

Returns a boolean if the array has a specific value

bool = ${Carbon.Array.hasValue(array, value)}

Carbon.Array.getValueByPath(array, path)

Returns the value of a nested array by following the specified path.

value = ${Carbon.Array.getValueByPath(array, path)}

Carbon.Array.setValueByPath(array, path, value)

Sets the given value in a nested array or object by following the specified path.

array = ${Carbon.Array.setValueByPath(subject, path, value)}

Carbon.Array.check(variable)

Check if a variable is iterable and has items

Return The variable or null if it is empty or not an iterable

Carbon.Array.isCountable(variable)

Check if the given variable is countable

Return true or false

Carbon.Array.sortByItem(array, key, direction)

• array (iterable|mixed) array with arrays to sort
• key (string) Key of array to sort
• direction (string, optional) ASC or DESC. Direction of sorting

Return The sorted array

Date Helper

Carbon.Date.secondsUntil(string)

Return seconds until the given offset. . Very useful for maximumLifetime on the @cache entry.

• string (string) The offset in DateInterval format starting from midnight
• dateinerval (boolean, optional) true if interval should be used or the $offset should be parsed, defaults to true

In this example, we clear the cache at midnight by adding an offset of 0 hours.

@cache {
    mode = 'cached'
    maximumLifetime = ${Carbon.Date.secondsUntil('PT0H')}
    ...
}

To get the seconds until next year, you can do it like this:

secondUntilNextYear = ${Carbon.Date.secondsUntil('first day of January next year', false)}

Return The timespan in seconds (integer)

Return The content of the file

Carbon.FileContent.pathHash(string, length)

Returns the hash value from the file content of a path. Fails silently.

Carbon.FileContent.resourceHash(q(node).property('file'), 20)	'1d62f5a55ad5e304d60d'

• resource (resource) The persisted resource to read
• length (integer, optional) The length of the hash value defaults to 8. The maximal value is 40

Return The hash value from the content of the file

Tailwind Helper

Tailwind.merge(mixed1, mixed2, mixedN)

This helper allows you to merge multiple Tailwind CSS classes and automatically resolves conflicts between them without headaches. Render all arguments as classNames and apply conditions if needed. Merge strings and arrays to a string with unique values, separated by an empty space.

All arguments of the eel helper are evaluated and the following rules are applied:

• falsy values: (null, '', [], {}) are not rendererd
• array: all items that are scalar and truthy are rendered as classname
• object: keys that have a truthy values are rendered as classname
• scalar: is cast to string and rendered as class-name

It is based on tailwind-merge-php.

Examples:

Expression	Result
Tailwind.merge('w-8 h-8 rounded-full rounded-lg')	'w-8 h-8 rounded-lg'
Tailwind.merge(['w-8 rounded-full'], 'rounded-lg', 'h-8')	'w-8 rounded-lg h-8'
Tailwind.merge(null, null, {}, [])	null
Tailwind.merge('one', ['one', 'two'], {three: true, four: false}	'one two three'

Return The merged string

Configuration

If you are using Tailwind CSS without any extra config, you can use the Eel helper right away. And stop reading here.

If you're using a custom Tailwind config, you may need to configure the Eel helper as well to merge classes properly.

By default it is configured in a way that you can still use it if all the following apply to your Tailwind config:

• Only using color names which don't clash with other Tailwind class names
• Only deviating by number values from number-based Tailwind classes
• Only using font-family classes which don't clash with default font-weight classes
• Sticking to default Tailwind config for everything else

If some of these points don't apply to you, you need to customize the configuration.

This is an example to add a custom font size of very-large:

Carbon:
  Eel:
    tailwindMergeConfig:
      classGroups:
        'font-size':
          - text: ['very-large']

You can also enable different validators, to make everything easier. For instance, if you use the Tailwind OKLCH Plugin, you can set it like that:

Carbon:
  Eel:
    tailwindMergeConfig:
      classGroups:
        'fill-lightness':
          - 'fill-lightness-offset': ['INTEGER_VALIDATOR', 'ARBITRARY_NUMBER_VALIDATOR']
        'border-lightness':
          - 'border-lightness-offset': ['INTEGER_VALIDATOR', 'ARBITRARY_NUMBER_VALIDATOR']
        'text-lightness':
          - 'text-lightness-offset': ['INTEGER_VALIDATOR', 'ARBITRARY_NUMBER_VALIDATOR']
        'bg-lightness':
          - 'bg-lightness-offset': ['INTEGER_VALIDATOR', 'ARBITRARY_NUMBER_VALIDATOR']

If you want to use a certain validator, just change it to constant case and add it as a string. So, for examle, if you want to use the TshirtSizeValidator, just add TSHIRT_SIZE_VALIDATOR to the list.

The merge service uses a its own cache Carbon_Eel_Tailwind. Make sure to clear the cache when you are making changes to the configuration.

AlpineJS Helper

AlpineJS.object(arg1, arg2, ..argN)
