This bundle leverages a collection of Fabien Potencier's Twig Extensions for use in your application.
Available at Fabien's repository these extensions are considered useful but do not belong in the Core of Twig, so they have been moved to this separate repository, they are:
- Text: truncate and wordwrap filter
- Debug: retrieves the token parser
- Intl: localized date filter
- i18n: trans filter and block (this extension conflicts with standard Symfony translator, so it is off by default, see Usage below.)
Further documentation is available in the repository.
These are custom extensions which I find myself writing over and over for new projects.
- Textual Date: converts timestamp into dates like:
2 days ago
(docs)
