Smarty3 template engine module for PPI2.

Build Status

Smarty

Smarty is a template engine for PHP, facilitating the separation of presentation (HTML/CSS) from application logic. This implies that PHP code is application logic, and is separated from the presentation.

Some of Smarty's features:

  • It is extremely fast.
  • It is efficient since the PHP parser does the dirty work.
  • No template parsing overhead, only compiles once.
  • It is smart about recompiling only the template files that have changed.
  • You can easily create your own custom functions and variable modifiers, so the template language is extremely extensible.
  • Configurable template {delimiter} tag syntax, so you can use {$foo}, {{$foo}}, <!--{$foo}-->, etc.
  • The {if}..{elseif}..{else}..{/if} constructs are passed to the PHP parser, so the {if...} expression syntax can be as simple or as complex an evaluation as you like.
  • Allows unlimited nesting of sections, if's etc.
  • Built-in caching support.
  • Arbitrary template sources.
  • Template Inheritance for easy management of template content.
  • Plugin architecture.

About PPI

PPI is an open source PHP meta-framework. It has taken the good bits from Symfony2, ZendFramework2 & Doctrine2 and combined them together to create a solid and very easy web application framework. It can be considered the boilerplate of PHP frameworks.
