[RFC][TwigBundle] Register custom functions & filters using an attribute #50016
Description
Description
Currently, in order to create a custom twig function/filter, we need create a class that extends the AbstractExtension, that looks like this:
class TwigExtension extends AbstractExtension
{
public function getFilters(): array
{
return [
new TwigFilter('my_custom_filter', 'myCustomFilter'),
];
}
public function getFunctions(): array
{
return [
new TwigFunction('my_custom_function', 'myCustomFunction'),
];
}
public function myCustomFilter(): string
{
// code here
}
public function myCustomFunction(): string
{
// code here
}
}Example
I've always thought that the DX regarding twig extension could be better when working with Symfony. Today, I imagined the following:
class TwigExtension extends AbstractExtension
{
#[TwigFilter('my_custom_filter')]
public function myCustomFilter(): string
{
// code here
}
#[TwigFunction('my_custom_function')]
public function myCustomFunction(): string
{
// code here
}
}If we don't want to modify or conflict with the existing TwigFunction / TwigFilter classes, we could name them like this and store them in the twig bridge I think?
#[AsTwigFilter]#[AsTwigFunction]
What do you think?
(If the feedbacks are positive, I'll open a PR.) Hum, this seems more difficult than I initially thought.
