I'm trying to add stylesheets to an array so that as twig templates extend through a second and third levels the aggregated styles will carry through.
This topic is related to Combining Assetic Resources across inherited templates
From config.yml, I made a global array mystyles
so that we can add to the list of necessary styles as we "bubble up" through the rendering process.
twig:
debug: %kernel.debug%
strict_variables: %kernel.debug%
globals:
mystyles: []
The first template called from my action is from CommunicatorBundle/Resources/views/Admin/Workspace.html.twig and I've set the specific style for this page called admin.workspace.css
.
{% extends "DJCommunicatorBundle::base.html.twig" %}
{% set mystyles = ["@DJCommunicatorBundle/Resources/public/css/admin.workspace.css"]|merge(mystyles) %}
It extends CommunicatorBundle/Resources/views/base.html.twig which has it's own requirement data-table.css
.
{% extends "DJSharedBundle::base.html.twig" %}
{% set mystyles = ["@DJCommunicatorBundle/Resources/public/css/data-table.css" ]|merge(mystyles) %}
Finally, we load the outermost template, SharedBundle/Resources/views/base.html.twig, which has it's own styles to add before all others.
<head>
{% set mystyles = ['@DJSharedBundle/Resources/public/css/global.css', '@DJSharedBundle/Resources/public/css/grid.990.9-col.css']|merge(mystyles) %}
{% stylesheets {{ mystyles }} %}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ asset_url }}" type="text/css" />
{% endstylesheets %}
</head>
However, it breaks at this line
{% stylesheets {{ mystyles }} %}
inspite of this type of test that prints the array that I expect in the proper order
{{ mystyles|join(', ') }}
It seems that the {% stylesheets %}
tag wants something like the following snippit to work (which is understandably not an array object, but a whitespace separated list of delimited strings).
{% stylesheets
'@DJSharedBundle/Resources/public/css/global.css'
'@DJSharedBundle/Resources/public/css/grid.990.9-col.css'
'@DJCommunicatorBundle/Resources/public/css/data-table.css'
'@DJCommunicatorBundle/Resources/public/css/admin.workspace.css'
%}
<link rel="stylesheet" href="{{ asset_url }}" type="text/css" />
{% endstylesheets %}
Even then, I tried setting a string to such a long value and printing it, but this doesn't work either:
{%
set str = "@DJSharedBundle/Resources/public/css/global.css
@DJSharedBundle/Resources/public/css/grid.990.9-col.css
@DJCommunicatorBundle/Resources/public/css/data-table.css
@DJCommunicatorBundle/Resources/public/css/admin.workspace.css"
%}
{% stylesheets {{ str }} %}
I feel like the global should be a viable solution, though not currently working. Hopefully I'm close. What might fix this?
