Wing Commander is a Mustache wrapper for the Flight PHP microframework.
The easiest way to install Wing Commander is using Composer. Create a composer.json file in the root of your project and require Wing Commander.
{
"require": {
"xmeltrut/wing-commander": "*"
}
}
Then run the install command, and this will install all dependencies - including Flight and Mustache.
composer install
A basic usage would look like the following.
require 'vendor/autoload.php';
WingCommander::init();
Flight::route('/', function(){
Flight::view()->set("someVar", "Hello, World!");
Flight::render("homepage", array(), "body");
Flight::render("layout", array("title" => $pageTitle));
});
Flight::start();
By default, it will look for Mustache templates in the ./templates directory of your project. You can change this by calling the setTemplatePath method.
Flight::view()->setTemplatePath("./application/templates");
Lets create homepage.mustache.
<p>{{someVar}}</p>
A layout to wrap it in too - layout.mustache.
<p>Wing Commander says:</p>
{{{body}}}
Bringing it all together, you can use it like you would use the standard Flight view component.
Flight::view()->set("someVar", "Hello, World!");
Flight::render("homepage", array(), "body");
Flight::render("layout", array("title" => $pageTitle));
