Upgrade View Parser

Documentation

• Template Parser Documentation CodeIgniter 3.x
• View Parser Documentation CodeIgniter 4.x

What has been changed

• You have to change the implementation and loading of the Parser Library.
• The Views can be copied from CI3. Usually, no changes are required there.

Upgrade Guide

1. Wherever you use the View Parser Library, replace $this->load->library('parser'); with $parser = service('parser');.
2. You have to change the render part in your controller from $this->parser->parse('blog_template', $data); to return $parser->setData($data)->render('blog_template');.

Code Example

CodeIgniter Version 3.x

<?php

$this->load->library('parser');

$data = array(
    'blog_title'   => 'My Blog Title',
    'blog_heading' => 'My Blog Heading'
);

$this->parser
    ->parse('blog_template', $data);

CodeIgniter Version 4.x

<?php

$parser = service('parser');

$data = [
    'blog_title'   => 'My Blog Title',
    'blog_heading' => 'My Blog Heading',
];

return $parser->setData($data)->render('blog_template');
