Template Generators
Coilpack expands support for ExpressionEngine's Template Generator feature to include the Twig and Blade templating engines. This is accomplished by providing translations of ExpressionEngine's native template and fieldtype stubs.
Usage
Control Panel
The Channel and Field Manager display a shortname next to each item's title which you can click to copy example template code. This code will be generated using the site's default template engine. If not specified this will use the Native Template Language so be sure to change this if you wish to copy code in Twig or Blade.
Due to security restrictions in modern browsers copying code via the shortname is only supported when on HTTPS.
When using Coilpack you will also notice that the Developer > Templates > Template Generator page will have an extra option for "Template Engine". You can select from the available options and the generated templates will use the proper syntax for your specified engine.
If you generate a template that is missing a translated stub (perhaps a third-party fieldtype) ExpressionEngine will default back to the native syntax for that stub.
Command Line Interface
You may access the Template Generator functionality through the Command Line Interface (CLI) as well by running php artisan eecli generate:templates. For more information about the available options please consult the ExpressionEngine Documentation
Add-on Development
If you are developing an add-on and wish to support Template Generators you should first familiarize yourself with the Template Generator Service.
You can add support for the Twig and Blade templating engines by creating additional stubs in your addon_name/stubs folder that use the template engine suffix. For instance if your add-on has a fieldtype your Native template stub might be addon_name/stubs/field.php and you could create a variant for Twig at addon_name/stubs/field.twig.php and similarly for Blade at addon_name/stubs/field.blade.php.
