README

PHPUnit

composer require flyo/nitro-yii2

add the module to your config

'modules' => [
    'flyo' => [
        'class' => \Flyo\Yii\Module::class,
        'token' => 'YOUR_TOKEN',
        'liveEdit' => !YII_ENV_PROD, // this is the default behavior, set to `true` to enable live edit in production as well
    ]
]

add the cms page resolve to your views in the folder /views/nitro.php, all the routes from flyo nitro will now be resolved into this view file:

<?php
use Flyo\Yii\Widgets\PageWidget;
/** @var \Flyo\Model\Page $page */
?>
<h1><?= $page->getTitle(); ?>
<?= PageWidget::widget(['page' => $page]); ?>

In order to render those blocks use the Flyo\Yii\Widgets\PageWidget which will lookup all blocks inside the folder /views/flyo/*, so for instance you have a HeroTeaser component defined in flyo the view file is stored in /views/flyo/HeroTeaser.php with example content:

/** @var \Flyo\Model\Block $block */
print_r($block->getContent());
print_r($block->getConfig());
print_r($block->getItems());
print_r($block->getSlots());

Layout

Generate a navigation in the layout file, use the NavWidget:

<?php $nav = ContainerWidget::begin(['identifier' => 'main']) ?>
    <ul>
        <?php foreach ($nav->getItems() as $item): ?>
            <li><?= Html::a($item->getLabel(), $item->getHref()); ?></li>
        <?php endforeach; ?>
    </ul>
<?php $nav::end(); ?>

Layout blocks with children

An example where a block contains child blocks, defined in the slot content:

<?php
use Flyo\Yii\Widgets\BlockWidget;
/** @var \Flyo\Model\Block $block */
$config = $block->getConfig();
?>
<div class="container">
    <?php foreach ($block->getSlots()['content']->getContent() as $childBlock): ?>
        <div class="w-full">
            <?= BlockWidget::widget([
                'block' => $childBlock,
            ]); ?>
        </div>
    <?php endforeach; ?>
</div>
<?php SectionWidget::end(); ?>

Extend existing Routes

Its possible to extend the routing system for existing pages. This can help when building dynamic sub pages which need to ensure that you are still on the same CMS page (not not entity detail), in order to do add the following url rule in the UrlManager section:

'<path:(the-requested-slug)>/<slug:[a-z\-]+>' => 'flyo/nitro/index',

In order to link to extended route, its not possible to use Url::toRoute, since this is a fixed rule in routes anyhow you have to use:

<a href="/the-requested-slug/<?= ...; ?>">Detail</a>

Live Edit

As long as the liveEdit module property is enabled, the module registers the Nitro JS Bridge together with its boot script (page refresh, scroll to block, editor handshake and the click handlers for all elements with a data-flyo-uid attribute) whenever a page is rendered by a web application. This happens independently of the Editable widget, therefore live edit also works in projects which mark their blocks by hand or do not mark them at all, and it is switched on and off in one single place.

Yii2 Widget: Editable

This widget makes Flyo blocks editable inside the Flyo preview iframe by rendering the data-flyo-uid marker, which is picked up by the bridge registered through Live Edit.

Usage

Wrap content

<?php
use Flyo\Yii\Widgets\Editable;
?>

<?php Editable::begin(['block' => $block]); ?>
    <h2><?= $block->getTitle(); ?></h2>
    <p><?= $block->getText(); ?></p>
<?php Editable::end(); ?>

Renders:

<div data-flyo-uid="block-uid-here">
  <h2>…</h2>
  <p>…</p>
</div>

Attribute only

If you already have a wrapper element, use the static helper:

<section <?= Editable::attr($block) ?>>
  <h1><?= $block->getTitle(); ?></h1>
</section>

Renders:

<section data-flyo-uid="block-uid-here">
  <h1>…</h1>
</section>

Notes

Highlighting/click-to-edit works only inside Flyo’s preview iframe.

Outside preview, the page behaves normally.
