PHP Smarty to Twig Converter

toTwig is an utility to convert smarty template engine to twig template engine.

Installation

Locally

Download the toTwig.phar file and store it somewhere on your computer.

Globally (manual)

You can run these commands to easily acces toTwig from anywhere on your system:

$ sudo wget https://raw.github.com/sankarsuda/toTwig/master/toTwig.phar -O /usr/local/bin/toTwig

or with curl:

$ sudo curl https://raw.github.com/sankarsuda/toTwig/master/toTwig.phar -o /usr/local/bin/toTwig

then:

$ sudo chmod a+x /usr/local/bin/toTwig

Then, just run toTwig

Update

Locally

The self-update command tries to update toTwig itself:

$ php toTwig.phar self-update

Globally (manual)

You can update toTwig through this command:

$ sudo toTwig self-update

Usage

The convert command tries to fix as much coding standards problems as possible on a given file or directory:

`php toTwig.phar convert /path/to/dir`
`php toTwig.phar convert /path/to/file`

The --converters option lets you choose the exact converters to apply (the converter names must be separated by a comma):

`php toTwig.phar convert /path/to/dir --converters=for,if,misc`

You can also blacklist the converters you don't want if this is more convenient, using -name:

`php toTwig.phar convert /path/to/dir --converters=-for,-if`

A combination of --dry-run, --verbose and --diff will display summary of proposed changes, leaving your files unchanged.

All converters apply by default.

Choose from the list of available converters:

• include Convert smarty include to twig include

• assign Convert smarty {assign} to twig {% set foo = 'foo' %}

• variable Convert smarty variable {$var.name} to twig {{ var.name }}

• comment Convert smarty comments {* *} to twig {# #}

• misc Convert smarty general tags like {ldelim} {rdelim} {literal}

• if Convert smarty if/else/elseif to twig

• for Convert foreach/foreachelse to twig

The --config option customizes the files to analyse, based on some well-known directory structures:

`# For the Symfony 2.1 branch`
`php toTwig.phar convert /path/to/sf21 --config=sf21`

Choose from the list of available configurations:

• default A default configuration

The --dry-run option displays the files that need to be fixed but without actually modifying them:

`php toTwig.phar convert /path/to/code --dry-run`

Instead of using command line options to customize the converter, you can save the configuration in a .php_st file in the root directory of your project. The file must return an instance of toTwig\ConfigInterface, which lets you configure the converters, the files, and directories that need to be analyzed:

<?php

$finder = toTwig\Finder\DefaultFinder::create()
	->exclude('somefile')
	->in(__DIR__)
;

return toTwig\Config\Config::create()
	->converters(array('if', 'for'))
	->finder($finder)
;

Contribute

The tool comes with quite a few built-in converters and finders, but everyone is more than welcome to contribute more of them.

Converter

A converter is a class that tries to convert one tag (a Converter class must extends ConverterAbstract).

Configs

A config knows about the files and directories that must be scanned by the tool when run in the directory of your project. It is useful for projects that follow a well-known directory structures (like for Symfony projects for instance).
