View

View rendering is implemented by hyperf/view component. The component supports five different templating engines; Blade, Smarty, Twig, Plates and ThinkTemplate.

Installation

bash

composer require hyperf/view

Configuration

The configuration file of the view component is located in config/autoload/view.php, if the configuration file does not exist, the following command can be executed to generate the configuration file:

bash

php bin/hyperf.php vendor:publish hyperf/view

The following configuration options are available:

Configuration	Type	Default Value	Remarks
engine	string	Hyperf\View\Engine\BladeEngine::class	View rendering engine
mode	string	Mode::TASK	View rendering mode
config.view_path	string	None	Default address of view file
config.cache_path	string	None	View file cache address

Example configuration file format:

php

<?php
declare(strict_types=1);

use Hyperf\View\Mode;
use Hyperf\View\Engine\BladeEngine;

return [
    // The rendering engine used
    'engine' => BladeEngine::class,
    // If you don't fill it in, the default is Task mode, it is recommended to use Task mode
    'mode' => Mode::TASK,
    'config' => [
        // If the following folder does not exist, please create it yourself
        'view_path' => BASE_PATH.'/storage/view/',
        'cache_path' => BASE_PATH.'/runtime/view/',
    ],
];

Task Mode

When using the Task mode, the hyperf/task component must be installed and the task_enable_coroutine must be configured as false, otherwise there will be a problem of coroutine data consistency. Please refer to the task component documentation.

In addition, in the Task mode the view rendering work is done by a Task Worker process while the request processing in the controller is completed by a Worker process. This means that it's not possible to access context dependent data objects such as Request and Session directly from the view. If you need to use context dependent data in your views, make sure you pass the data from the controller via the render method.

Sync mode

If you use the Sync mode to render the view, please ensure that the relevant engine is coroutine safe, otherwise there will be data consistency problems. It is recommended to use the more data-safe Task mode.

Configure static resources

If you want Swoole to manage static resources, please add the following configuration in the config/autoload/server.php configuration.

return [
    'settings' => [
        ...
        // static resources
        'document_root' => BASE_PATH.'/public',
        'enable_static_handler' => true,
    ],
];

View rendering engine

The current officially supported rendering engines are Blade, Smarty, Twig, Plates and ThinkTemplate. The templating engine will not be automatically installed when hyperf/view is installed. You need to install the corresponding templating engine in addition to the view package.

Install Blade Engine

bash

composer require hyperf/view-engine

For details, please refer to the view engine documentation.

Or use

duncan3dc/blade uses Laravel's Support library, so some functions will be incompatible, so it is not recommended for the time being

bash

composer require duncan3dc/blade

Install Smarty Engine

bash

composer require smarty/smarty

Install Twig Engine

bash

composer require twig/twig

Install Plates Engine

bash

composer require league/plates

Install ThinkTemplate Engine

bash

composer require sy-records/think-template

Access other templates

Suppose we want to connect a virtual template engine named TemplateEngine, then we need to create the corresponding TemplateEngine class anywhere and implement the Hyperf\View\Engine\EngineInterface interface.

php

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Engine;

use Hyperf\View\Engine\EngineInterface;

class TemplateEngine implements EngineInterface
{
    public function render($template, $data, $config): string
    {
        // instantiate an instance of the corresponding template engine
        $engine = new TemplateInstance();
        // and call the corresponding rendering method
        return $engine->render($template, $data);
    }
}

Then modify the configuration of the view component:

php

<?php

use App\Engine\TemplateEngine;

return [
    // Change the engine parameter to your custom template engine class
    'engine' => TemplateEngine::class,
    'mode' => Mode::TASK,
    'config' => [
        'view_path' => BASE_PATH.'/storage/view/',
        'cache_path' => BASE_PATH.'/runtime/view/',
    ],
];

Use

The following takes BladeEngine as an example. First, create the view file index.blade.php in the corresponding directory.

blade

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <title>Hyperf</title>
</head>
<body>
Hello, {{ $name }}. You are using blade template now.
</body>
</html>

Obtain the Hyperf\View\Render instance in the controller, then call the render method and pass the view file address index and rendering data. The file address ignores the suffix of the view file.

php

<?php

declare(strict_types=1);

namespace App\Controller;

use Hyperf\HttpServer\Annotation\AutoController;
use Hyperf\View\RenderInterface;

#[AutoController]
class ViewController
{
    public function index(RenderInterface $render)
    {
        return $render->render('index', ['name' =>'Hyperf']);
    }
}

Visit the corresponding URL to get the view page as shown below:

Hello, Hyperf. You are using blade template now.
