Configuration

'cache_type' => 'file',
'cache_enabled' => false,
'compiled_folder' => 'blitz_compiled',
'scope_lookup_limit' => 8,

Config parameters
-
templates_folder - where source templates relative to laravel resources folder
-
cache_type - 'file' or 'redis', default 'file'
-
cache_enabled - enabled or disabled caching, default 'false'
-
compiled_folder - where store cache relative to laravel storage folder, also if cache type 'redis' redis key
is full path to compiled file in filesystem like 'file' cache type
-
scope_lookup_limit - blitz extension ini parameter
-
php_callbacks_first - blitz extension ini parameter
-
namespace_finder - in which namespace the template processor will look for classes specified in templates as callbacks.
For example, you wrote in the template ```Lang::get('DefaultTitle')```. The processor will find the first matching class in these
namespaces and expand it into a fully qualified class name with a namespace (```Illuminate\Support\Facades\Lang::get('DefaultTitle')```).
If the class is not found, then the callback will be deleted.
Usage
Example Controller
use NickyX3\Blitz\Facade\BlitzView;
Route::get('/', function () {
return BlitzView::apply('example.blitz-extend',['title'=>'Blitz Title']);
});
Method `apply` returns `Illuminate\Http\Response`, also method `make` is alias for `apply`
Command
The command is also available to clear the template cache
$ php artisan blitz:clear
Exceptions
If Blitz generate error, throw custom BlitzException with integrated renderer.
This exception will be rendered if your env `APP_DEBUG=true`, otherwise simple laravel error 500 with abort helper.
Template Syntax Features
Unlike Blitz, which can only do include, template "up" inheritance works like in Blade Engine.
The following Blade directives are supported: `@yield`, `@extends`, `@section` and `@endsection` placed in an HTML comment tag
Examples
-
"example/master.tpl" template
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<body>
<!-- @yield('content') -->
</body>
</html>
-
"blitz-extend.tpl" template
<!-- @extends('example.master') -->
<!-- @section('content') -->
<div class="child-template">this is template extends example/master.tpl</div>
<!-- @endsection -->
Have fun!
Perhaps the code is not very good, I'm new to Laravel and also very poorly documented because I'm going on vacation. Maybe I'll make detailed comments later :-)
