exp:exptemplateconvertstpltotwig

Convert the Smarty templates (.stpl) of a design to Twig templates (.twig); --dry-run, --file, --force, --override-ini, --twig-suffix.

Script bin/php/exptemplateconvertstpltotwig.php, code in kernel/private/classes/commands/exptemplateconvertstpltotwig.php. Run it from the installation root, as the user the web server runs as:

./console exp:exptemplateconvertstpltotwig --help
./console exp:template:convert:stpl-to-twig --help
php bin/php/exptemplateconvertstpltotwig.php --help

Help text

Convert Smarty templates (.stpl) to Twig templates (.twig)
Every *.stpl below --from becomes the *.twig at the same place below --to (templates/ and
override/templates/ alike), so that it prints what the .stpl printed.
The .stpl is converted to Exponential templates and then to Twig, in memory, in one run.
--override-ini writes the override rules that make the -s siteaccess use the .twig.
The same as exp:template:convert --from-engine=stpl --to-engine=twig.

./console exp:template:convert:stpl-to-twig --from=extension/<ext>/design/<design> --to=var/tmp/<design>
./console exp:template:convert:stpl-to-twig --from=extension/<ext>/design/<design> --dry-run
./console exp:template:convert:stpl-to-twig --file=design/<design>/templates/<name>.stpl
./console exp:template:convert:stpl-to-twig -s <siteaccess> --from=<design> --to=<design> --override-ini=<file>

Every written file ends with a marker comment ({# exp:template:convert stpl->twig md5:... from ... #});
a target that has no marker, or was changed after it was written, is skipped (SKIP) unless --force
is given. The result is checked before it is written: a .twig must compile with Twig 3 (when
installed). Prints WRITE or REPLACE for every file written, NOTE for every construct that could not
be converted exactly, ERROR for a template that could not be converted, then PASS or FAIL with the counts.
Exit code: 0 PASS; 1 FAIL (a template could not be read, converted, checked or written); 2 wrong options;
3 the conversion is not available (the engine's library or converter is missing).

Options

OptionValueHelp
--fromrequireddesign directory with the .stpl templates (every .stpl below it is converted)
--torequireddesign directory for the .twig templates (default: the --from directory, next to the sources)
--filerequiredconvert this one .stpl only (below --from, or a file of its own: then --to is the target file)
--override-inirequiredoverride.ini.append.php to write for the --to design (the -s siteaccess's override rules, MatchFile pointing at the converted .twig)
--twig-suffixrequiredthe ending of the written Twig templates: .twig (the default) or .html.twig
--dry-runshow what would be written; nothing is written
--forcealso replace a .twig that was changed or written by hand (no marker, or not matching it)

Read from the option definitions in the code (startup(), getOptions(), options() or ezcConsoleOption). Every script also takes the standard options of the script framework (--help, --siteaccess, --debug, --quiet, --allow-root-user ...).
