<p>Blade is the template engine for Laravel, a very popular php framework, developed by Taylor Otwell. This plugin brings the same template engine to wordpress.<br />
Using a template engine will result in much cleaner template files and quicker development. Normal php can still be used in the template files.<br />
The plugin also adds a wordpress specific snippet to blade. Check out the examples for more info.</p>
<h4>echo/print</h4>
<pre><code>{{$foo}}
</code></pre>
<p>Turns into…
    </p>
<h4>if()</h4>
<pre><code>@if(has_post_thumbnail())
    {{the_post_thumbnail() }}
@else 
    <img src="{{bloginfo( 'template_url' )}}/images/thumbnail-default.jpg" />
@endif
</code></pre>
<p>Turns into…</p>
<p>        <img src="/images/thumbnail-default.jpg” />
    </p>
<h4>the loop</h4>
<pre><code>@wpposts
    <a href="{{the_permalink()}}">{{the_title()}}</a><br>
@wpempty
    <p>404</p>
@wpend
</code></pre>
<p>Turns into…</p>
<p>        <a href="”></a></p>
<p>404</p>
<h4>wordpress query</h4>
<pre><code><ul>
@wpquery(array('post_type' => 'post'))
    <li><a href="{{the_permalink()}}">{{the_title()}}</a></li>
@wpempty
    <li>{{ __('Sorry, no posts matched your criteria.') }}</li>
@wpend
</ul>
</code></pre>
<p>Turns into….</p>
<ul>
     ‘post’) ); ?><br />
    have_posts() ) : ?><br />
        have_posts() ) : $query->the_post(); ?></p>
<li><a href="”>  </a></li>
<li></li>
</ul>
<h4>Advanced Custom Fields</h4>
<pre><code><ul>
    @acfrepeater('images')
        <li>{{ get_sub_field( 'image' ) }}</li>
    @acfend
</ul>
</code></pre>
<p>Turns into…</p>
<ul>
<li><img src="” /></li>
</ul>
<h4>Including other templates</h4>
<p>To include a file with blade use:<br />
    @include(‘header’)<br />
Note that you should not type “.php”. Files included with functions, e.g. the_header(), will not be compiled by Blade, however the php code in the file is still executed.</p>
<h4>Layouts</h4>
<p>master.php:</p>
<p>            @yield(‘content’)</p>
<p>page.php:<br />
    @layout(‘master’)</p>
<pre><code>@section('content')
    <p>Lorem ipsum</p>
@endsection
</code></pre>

Blade

Brings Laravel's great template engine, Blade, to Wordpress. Just install and start using blade in your theme.

<p>This plugin adds and loads philo/laravel-blade to your WordPress installation.<br />
It loads two functions, which enable you to use the Blade render engine in your templates which make your themes better readable.</p>
<h3>Usage</h3>
<p>The plugin adds two functions:<br />
– render_blade_view (void, echoes the content)<br />
– get_rendered_blade_view (string)</p>
<p>Both functions take the same parameters:<br />
1. view (required, string)<br />
2. attributes (optional, array)</p>
<p>When installed, the plugin creates a “views” folder in your theme directory. This is where you put your blade templates (with the .blade.php extension).<br />
The “views” folder may contain subfolders.</p>
<h3>Example</h3>
<p>wp-contents/themes/your-theme/views/components/article.blade.php:<br />
    <code>blade<br />
@if($show_text)<br />
{{ $text }}<br />
@endif</code></p>
<p>wp-contents/themes/your-theme/functions.php:<br />
    <code>php<br />
<?php<br />
render_blade_view('components.article', [<br />
    'show_text' => true,<br />
    'text' => 'Hello World!',<br />
]);</code></p>
<p>When ran on any page, it will output “Hello World!”</p>
<h3>Blade</h3>
<p>Blade is a template engine which is mainly used by Laravel. More information here: https://laravel.com/docs/5.1/blade<br />
This plugin supports all the directives which are available in Laravel 5.1.</p>
