The Drago Extension is a package built on top of the Nette Framework, designed to provide several useful components for your web applications. Below are the classes in the extension and how you can use them.

License: MIT PHP version Tests Coding Style

Requirements

  • PHP >= 8.3, < 9
  • Nette Framework
  • Composer
  • Bootstrap
  • Naja

Installation

composer require drago-ex/application

Project files

File copying is handled automatically by drago-ex/project-tools, which must be installed in your project. Without it, copy the files manually according to the copy section in this package's composer.json. To skip this package, set "skip": true under extra.drago-tools.packages.<package-name> in your root composer.json.

ExtraControl

Extend Drago\Application\UI\ExtraControl instead of Nette\Application\UI\Control.

AJAX request

Shortcut for the presenter check:

$this->isAjax();

Presenter helpers

These methods call the corresponding presenter method, so they are useful when an action should affect the whole page rather than only the control.

$this->addRedirect('Homepage:default'); // Redirects the presenter.
$this->addRedraw('content'); // Marks a presenter snippet for redraw (null redraws all snippets).
$this->addFlashMessage('Changes saved.', 'success'); // Adds a presenter flash message.

translate() is a protected helper for formatting messages. Set the public $translator property to use a translator; without one, it returns the message as-is or formats its parameters with vsprintf().

$label = $this->translate('Hello %s', $name);

Form component by name

Returns the form control, or null when the component is not a form control (for example a container):

$form = $this['factory'];
$submitButton = $this->getFormComponent($form, 'submit');
$submitButton->setCaption('Edit');

Form Factory

Use Drago\Application\UI\Factory when you want a typed factory for another form class, for example ExtraForms from drago-ex/form.

use Drago\Form\ExtraForms;

/**
 * @extends \Drago\Application\UI\Factory<ExtraForms>
 */
readonly class Factory extends \Drago\Application\UI\Factory
{
	protected function createForm(): ExtraForms
	{
		return new ExtraForms;
	}
}

ExtraTemplate

A base template class with the variables Nette passes to every template ($presenter, $control, $user, $baseUrl, $basePath, $flashes).

Use it in presenter or control PHPDoc:

/**
 * @property-read Drago\Application\UI\ExtraTemplate $template
 */
class Presenter {}

In Latte, we will use these macros to insert into the template, which will tell us the variables and types that can be used by default in the template.

{templateType Drago\Application\UI\ExtraTemplate}
{varType Drago\Application\UI\Flashes[] $flashes}

{include 'path/to/@flash-message.latte', flashes: $flashes}

Flash message alert types

Drago\Application\UI\Alert defines Success, Danger, Warning and Info:

$this->flashMessage('Saved.', Alert::Success);

Toast - Bootstrap and Naja component for flash messages

JavaScript setup

Since the package is installed via Composer, add the following to your package.json:

{
  "type": "module",
  "dependencies": {
    "drago-application": "file:vendor/drago-ex/application"
  }
}

Then run npm install.

import naja from 'naja';
import { ToastHandler } from 'drago-application';

naja.registerExtension(new ToastHandler());

Each toast is shown once, including toasts added by AJAX snippets, and removed after it hides.

Using toast in a Latte template

{include 'path/to/@toast.latte', flashes: $flashes}

Table widget

@table.latte renders a Bootstrap table. Pass an optional id, caption and themes for the table body and head (primary, secondary, success, danger, warning, info; unknown values use no theme):

{embed 'path/to/@table.latte', tableId: 'users', caption: 'Users', options: [head: 'primary']}
	{block thead}<tr><th>Name</th></tr>{/block}
	{block body}
		<tr n:foreach="$users as $user"><td>{$user->name}</td></tr>
	{/block}
{/embed}
