Using Smarty

For kwilo, we are using the Smarty Template Engine for rendering each output. Smarty has the concept of functions and modifiers. Functions can be called with or without any arguments to e.g. load other data. Modifiers transform existing input into other output.

Functions​

kwilo provides the following functions:
Function signatureDescription
asset_lib()Create the URL to the default templates libs.bundle.css file.
asset_theme()Create the URL to the default templates theme.bundle.css file.
asset_custom()Create the URL to the default templates custom.css file.

Available PHP functions​

Because of security reasons, only a small number of PHP functions is available. Those are:

  • isset
  • empty
  • count
  • sizeof
  • in_array
  • is_array

On-premises customers can enable more functions as they like to.
