Handlebars Cookbook - LightnCandy option: FLAG

Resolve {{else}} or {{^}} as handlebars specification. Otherwise, {{else}} will be resolved as normal variable, and {{^}} will cause template error.

Sample Codes

The default behavior: {{else}} will look for the value of 'else' key.

Data:

array(
  "else" => "OK"
)

Template:

{{else}}

Result:

OK

Source Code

require('./vendor/autoload.php');
use LightnCandy\LightnCandy;
$template = "{{else}}";

$php = LightnCandy::compile($template);
$render = LightnCandy::prepare($php);
$data = array(
  "else" => "OK"
);
echo $render($data);

Data:

array(
  "foo" => true
)

Template:

{{#if foo}}FOO{{else}}BAR{{/if}}

Result:

FOOBAR

Source Code

require('./vendor/autoload.php');
use LightnCandy\LightnCandy;
$template = "{{#if foo}}FOO{{else}}BAR{{/if}}";

$php = LightnCandy::compile($template);
$render = LightnCandy::prepare($php);
$data = array(
  "foo" => true
);
echo $render($data);

{else}}will do the else logic when FLAG_ELSE enabled.

Used option: FLAG_ELSE

Data:

array(
  "foo" => true
)

Template:

{{#if foo}}FOO{{else}}BAR{{/if}}

Result:

FOO

Source Code

require('./vendor/autoload.php');
use LightnCandy\LightnCandy;
$template = "{{#if foo}}FOO{{else}}BAR{{/if}}";

$php = LightnCandy::compile($template, array(
  "flags" => LightnCandy::FLAG_ELSE
));
$render = LightnCandy::prepare($php);
$data = array(
  "foo" => true
);
echo $render($data);
