Padius¶ ↑

Padius is small, but powerfull templataing engine. Respectivle it is a framework to define own tag based templating language.

This project is strongly based on original version for Ruby language called Radius. (github.com/jlong/radius)

Usage¶ ↑

Creating own tags is easy. Here’s small example:

require_once 'Padius/loader.php';

// Define tags
$c = new Padius\Context;
$c->defineTag("hello", function($tag) {
    return "Hello " . $tag->attr('name', 'World') . "!";
});

$c->defineTag("repeat", function($tag) {
    $number = $tag->attr('times', 1);
    $result = "";
    for ($i = 0; $i < $number; $i++) {
        $result .= $tag->expand();
    }
    return $result;
});

// Create parser
$parser = new Padius\Parser($c, 'p'); // p is the prefix used for tags
echo $parser->parse("A small example:\n<p:repeat times=\"3\">* <p:hello name=\"John Doe\" />\n</p:repeat>");

Output:

A small example:
* Hello John Doe!
* Hello John Doe!
* Hello John Doe!

Requirements¶ ↑

Padius needs just PHP >= 5.3 nothing more.
