How to access renderBlock method? about twigbridge HOT 4 CLOSED

The Twig Template class Twig_Template is the class that the generated php files based on your templates extend, see TwigBridge\Twig\Template

It's therefore not an instance you will have access to through the normal View facade.

Can I ask what your trying todo?

Thanks. I have bunch of blocks in my twig templates. For example:

{% block ajaxrequest %}
code...
{% endblock %}

If I detect an AJAX request, I'd like to render only that particular block and return to client. Also, there are useful methods like hasBlock, renderParentBlock, etc. that I'd like to access for other purposes and I'm not sure how.

Couple of ways you can do the ajax stuff:

{% if request_ajax() %}
    ...
{% endif %}

Maybe even checkout Turbo :p

Access to the generated class isn't something that TwigBridge is likely to provide for you. More than welcome to provide a pull request if you manage to do so.

I do it like this now:

$loader = new Twig_Loader_String();
$twig = new Twig_Environment($loader);
$template = $twig->loadTemplate(View::make('template')->with("data", $data)) ;
return $template->renderBlock("block", array());

It works but render time increases from 15ms to 83ms when I run a test. displayBlock() shaves a couple of ms.
