Installation

Package Control

Install Twig via Package Control. Once you have Package Control setup in Sublime Text, open the command palette and search for Package Control: Install Package. Search for Twig. There should be a package with the URL as https://github.com/Sublime-Instincts/BetterTwig. Install it.

Package Control will take care for of automatically updating the package for you if there are new releases.

Manual installation

In Sublime Text open the Preferences > Browse Packages menu item. In the Packages directory you should now see, clone this repository in a new directory called "Twig".

Documentation

How to use this package ?

By default, this package supports the following Twig extensions,

  1. .twig
  2. .htm.twig
  3. .html.twig

Since a user can have more than one templating language package installed, this package doesn't support .html directly. To get highlighting for .html files with Twig code and all the other features this package provides, you can follow any of the two approaches given below

  1. Go to the bottom right status bar item that displays information on current syntax and click on that when the currently open file is any .html file. From there go to Open all with current extensions as ... and scroll to select HTML (Twig). You should now be good to go.

  2. When the currently open file is a .twig file, from the main menu, go to Preferences -> Settings -- Syntax Specific. This should open a 2 column new window, with the default settings on the right and a user settings on the left. In the user settings, add the following, save & close.

{
    "extensions": [
        ".html"
    ]
}

Key bindings

  • The key bindings are configured so that pressing shift + { twice will automatically add spaces on both sides for the inner brace expression block & place the cursor in the center, like so {{ | }}.
  • Similarly, pressing shift + % within {} will add spaces on both sides of the inner % like so {% | %}
  • Use ctrl + / or ctrl + shift + / for Twig comments ({# This is a Twig comment #})
  • Use # within strings, to get the interpolation expression, like so #{|}.

Snippets

Basic snippets for each keyword are provided to create expressions without bothering with {% %}.

Tab Trigger Twig Tag
autoescape {% autoescape %}
endautoescape {% endautoescape %}
... ...

Prefixed with b basic snippets for most common control structures are provided.

Tab Trigger Twig Code Block
bautoescape {% autoescape %}{% endautoescape %}
bblock {% block %}{% endblock %}
bembed {% embed %}{% endembed %}
bextends {% extends %}
bfor {% for %}{% endfor %}
bif {% if %}{% endif %}
bifelse {% if %}{% else %}{% endif %}
bmacro {% macro %}{% endmacro %}
bsandbox {% sandbox %}{% endsandbox %}
bverbatim {% verbatim %}{% endverbatim %}
bwith {% with %}{% endwith %}

For more, please follow the official documentation on snippets to create your own.

Or use SnippetMaker for convenience.

If you want to ignore the snippets that are provided by default, you can use the ignored_snippets setting.

ignored snippets values
all "Twig/Snippets/*"
blocks "Twig/Snippets/blocks"
expressions "Twig/Snippets/expressions"
tags "Twig/Snippets/tags"

Example

To only keep tag snippets...

{
    "ignored_snippets": [
        "Twig/Snippets/blocks",
        "Twig/Snippets/expressions",
    ],
}
