Smarty is a template engine for PHP. More specifically, it facilitates a
|
|
manageable way to separate application logic and content from its
|
|
presentation. This is best described in a situation where the application
|
|
programmer and the template designer play different roles, or in most cases
|
|
are not the same person.
|
|
|
|
Some of Smarty's features:
|
|
* It is extremely fast.
|
|
* It is efficient since the PHP parser does the dirty work.
|
|
* No template parsing overhead, only compiles once.
|
|
* It is smart about recompiling only the template files that have changed.
|
|
* You can easily create your own custom functions and variable modifiers,
|
|
so the template language is extremely extensible.
|
|
* Configurable template {delimiter} tag syntax, so you can use
|
|
{$foo}, {{$foo}}, <!--{$foo}-->, etc.
|
|
* The {if}..{elseif}..{else}..{/if} constructs are passed to the PHP
|
|
parser, so the {if...} expression syntax can be as simple or as complex
|
|
an evaluation as you like.
|
|
* Allows unlimited nesting of sections, if's etc.
|
|
* Built-in caching support
|
|
* Arbitrary template sources
|
|
* Custom cache handling functions
|
|
* Template Inheritance for easy management of template content.
|
|
* Plugin architecture

See the Documentation at http://www.smarty.net/documentation for
|
|
instructions on how to configure PHP & Smarty to work together.
|
|
|
|
Smarty gets installed under /usr/lib/php/Smarty, so to use it, in standard
|
|
configuration it should be enough to use the following PHP code:
|
|
require_once( 'Smarty/Smarty.class.php' );
