TwigEvalExtension

One of the goals of Twig is to limit the amount of logic in your templates. Unfortunately you won't be able to do all sorts of stuff you can do with PHP. To regain that power you can use TwigEvalExtension. Just write your php code inside an eval() template function and it gets passed to PHP's eval and you will get the result.

Installation

You can install the extension by using composer require.

Example Usage

Using the eval function:

{{ eval('echo 1+1;') }}

Using the eval tag:

{% eval %}
    echo file_get_contents("/var/log/system.log");
{% endeval %}

Tests

Just run

$ vendor/bin/phpunit tests/EvalExtensionTest.php

No pesky phpunit.xml needed.
