How to use PHPTAL in FuelPHP

FuelPHP ver.1.2 supports PHPTAL template engine.

Installation

  • Add parser to packages in app/config/config.php.
  • Get PHPTAL from http://phptal.org/ and put into app/vendor/
  • (optional) When you enable PHPTAL cache, make app/cache/PHPTAL/ folder writable.

Usage

Use View::forge('template.phptal') in Controller. (Extension phptal triggers View_Phptal)

View files should be located in app/views/ .

Notes

Default extension is .phptal

Set auto_filter_output to false in app/config/config.php. This setting disables output escape by FuelPHP. (FuelPHP escapes outputs by default.)

Be sure to Use FuelPHP ver.1.2 or later. (FuelPHP ver.1.1 does not support PHPTAL)
