A lightweight, regex based template rendering engine for PHP

Templex lets you define stubs and hydrate them using PHP variables. The engine uses regex for all processing — no eval(), no including and running code as PHP. This means you can safely generate new PHP files, config files, or any text-based content from templates.

• PHP 8.5 or higher

composer require myerscode/templex

use Myerscode\Templex\Templex;

$templex = new Templex(__DIR__ . '/templates/', 'stub');

echo $templex->render('welcome', ['name' => 'Fred']);

Where templates/welcome.stub contains:

Hello <{ $name }>!

• Templates — template syntax, file types, and configuration
• Slots — includes, conditions, loops, switch statements, and variables

• Condition Examples
• Foreach Examples
• For Loop Examples
• Switch Statement Examples
