Daycry Twig

Twig template rendering for standalone PHP and CodeIgniter 4, with cache warmup, discovery, invalidation and diagnostics.

Install the core Use CodeIgniter 4

PHP 8.2+   |   Twig 3.30+   |   Optional CodeIgniter 4.7+

  • Standalone PHP

    Configure template paths, use native Twig loaders, register functions and filters, and inject a PSR-3 logger without loading a framework.

    Start rendering

  • CodeIgniter 4 integration

    Add shared services, configuration, rendering helpers, Spark commands, cache-service support and the debug toolbar with the optional adapter.

    Install the adapter

  • Cache lifecycle

    Compile source without rendering, invalidate actual Twig artifacts and refresh template generations in persistent workers.

    Understand caching

  • Discovery and diagnostics

    Discover templates, inspect rendering profiles and choose a lean capability profile or deployment-versioned discovery for your application.

    Read the diagnostics reference

Quick start

composer require daycry/twig:^4.0

require __DIR__ . '/vendor/autoload.php';

use Daycry\Twig\Configuration;
use Daycry\Twig\Twig;

$config = new Configuration();
$config->paths = [__DIR__ . '/templates'];
$twig = new Twig($config);

echo $twig->render('welcome', ['name' => 'Ada']);

composer require daycry/twig-codeigniter4:^4.0
php spark twig:publish

return service('twig')->render('welcome', ['name' => 'Ada']);

Follow the installation guide to create the first template and configure a cache path. Upgrading a 3.x application? Start with the 4.0 migration guide because framework namespaces change.
