Welcome to the Tina4CMS module, how does it work?
composer require tina4stack/tina4cms
composer exec tina4 initialize:run
Add the database connection to your index.php file which would have been created
require_once "vendor/autoload.php";
global $DBA;
$DBA = new \Tina4\DataSQLite3("test.db","", "", "d/m/Y");
echo new \Tina4\Tina4Php();
Run the CMS
composer start 8080
Open up the CMS to setup the admin user
http://localhost:8080/cms/login -> will get you started
You need to create a landing page called "home" as your starting page for things to working properly.
Make a base.twig file in your /src/templates folder, it needs the following blocks
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>{{ title }}</title>
<meta prefix="og: https://ogp.me/ns#" property="og:title" content="{{ title }}"/>
<meta prefix="og: https://ogp.me/ns#" property="og:type" content="website"/>
<meta prefix="og: https://ogp.me/ns#" property="og:url" content="{{ url }}"/>
<meta prefix="og: https://ogp.me/ns#" property="og:image" content="{{ image }}"/>
<meta prefix="og: https://ogp.me/ns#" property="og:description" content="{{ description }}"/>
{% block headers %}
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/src/public/css/default.css">
{% endblock %}
</head>
{% block body %}
<body>
{% block navigation %}
{% include "navigation.twig" %}
{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
{% endblock %}
{% block footer %}
{% endblock %}
</body>
{% endblock %}
</html>
or an example which extends the existing base in the tina4-cms
{% extends "@tina4cms/base.twig" %}
{% block headers %}
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/src/templates/css/default.css">
{% endblock %}
{% block body %}
<body>
<div class="content">
{% block navigation %}
{% include "navigation.twig" %}
{% endblock %}
{% block content %}
{% endblock %}
</div>
</body>
{% endblock %}
Create a navigation.twig file in your src/templates folder
{% set menus = Content.getMenu("") %}
<nav>
<ul>
{% for menu in menus %}
<li><a href="{{ menu.url }}">{{ menu.name }}</a>
{% if menu.children %}
<ul>
{% for childmenu in menu.children %}
<li>
<a href="{{ childmenu.url }}">{{ childmenu.name }}</a>
</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
{% endif %}
</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
</nav>
There are two ways you can do this:
When you want to include content as it is, and not have the snippet parsed with Twig you can simply use the following: Use the raw filter when you want to have scripts or other things included correctly
{{snippetName | raw}} or {{snippetName}}
The following is how you would include a snippet where you want variables in the page for example parsed in the snippet
{{ include(getSnippet("snippetName")) }}
Page content of "home"
{% set world = "World!" %}
{{ include (getSnippet("mySnippet")) }}
Snippet content of "mySnippet"
Hello {{world}}!
Adding articles into a page
{% set articles = Content.getArticles ("", 8) %}
{% for article in articles %}{% include "snippets/medium.twig" with {"article": article} %}{% endfor %}
{% set params = {"tag": "all", "skip": 4, "limit": 4, "template": "medium.twig"} %}
{% include "load-more.twig" with params %}
Overwriting the default CMS twig namespace - your own namespace
CMS_TWIG_NAMESPACE=""
