Vision

This package provides a single class to turn a message or HTML-snippet into a valid HTML5 document.

This way it is possible to let an app return an HTML response without the need to store a template file beforehand or initialize a full-blown template engine.

The package therefore does not have template variables or modifiers. Two lines of code should be sufficient to wrap a given text into a valid HTML document. One more to add a link to fancy stylesheet.

See »Usage« for some examples.

The package follows the KISS principle.

Webapp

This package is used on html5example.com.

If you are in need of a boilerplate HTML document once only, then you may use a commandline tool like cURL or HTTPie and run http https://html5example.com > index.html to save a template file.

The webapp supports some options of this package as well, for example http POST https://html5example.com title=Minimal-Template > index.html to pass a custom title.

Usage

Wrap a message into a HTML5 document, return to a PSR-7 implementation

$template = new \Pixelbrackets\Html5MiniTemplate\Html5MiniTemplate();
$template->setContent('<h1>Status</h1><p>All Systems Operational</p>');
return $template->getMarkup();

Wrap a message, use a preconfigured CSS framework CDN (see »options« for a list of supported frameworks), and save the document into a file

$template = new \Pixelbrackets\Html5MiniTemplate\Html5MiniTemplate();
$template->setStylesheet('barbone');
$template->setContent('<h1>Index</h1><p>Nothing to see here</p>');
file_put_contents('/var/www/example/index.html', $template->getMarkup());

Wrap a message, set your own stylesheet URL, set a title, output the document

$template = (new \Pixelbrackets\Html5MiniTemplate\Html5MiniTemplate())
    ->setStylesheet('/assets/styles.css')
    ->setTitle('Index')
    ->setContent('<h1>TOC</h1><ul><li>a</li><li>b</li></ul>');
echo $template->getMarkup();

Get the boilerplate example template only (👉 or use the Webapp)

echo \Pixelbrackets\Html5MiniTemplate\Html5MiniTemplate::getTemplate();

Options

setContent() (string) the message to show, any HTML string to set the main content of the document – if empty, then a boilerplate example content is used instead
- 💭 You work with Markdown content? Use the drop-in replacement package pixelbrackets/markdown-mini-page to convert Markdown into HTML straightaway
setStylesheet() (string) may be a URL to any existing stylesheet or one of following reserved keywords – each keyword creates a link to a CDN of the associated CSS framework
- barebone (Barebone Stylesheet) – super lightweight
- bootstrap (Bootstrap)
- gfm (GitHub Flavored Markdown Stylesheet)
- milligram (Milligram)
- minicss (mini.css)
- mui (MUI - Material Design CSS Framework)
- mvp (MVP.css)
- picnic (Picnic CSS)
- skeleton (Skeleton)
setStylesheetMode() (string) switch between a link to the given stylesheet (using the constant Html5MiniTemplate::STYLE_LINK, this is the default mode) or fetch the stylesheet file content and print it inline (using the constant Html5MiniTemplate::STYLE_INLINE)
setTitle() (string) the document title – if empty, then the first H1 headline found in the main content is used as title instead
setAdditionalMetadata() (string) any additional metadata like metatags, custom styles or link references like a canonical link
- ⚠️ Usage of this option is an indicator that the given use case is too specific and switching to a template engine like the minimal slim/php-view or the powerfull twig/twig should be considered
