Installing Tagger with composer is super easy, just add the following requirement to your composer.json:
"bryantebeek/tagger": "v1.0.*"
You can start using Tagger by calling the desired tag name as a static method on the Tag class.
Tagger\Tag::div();
Tagger\Tag::img();
It is possible to pass the content of a tag right when you initialize it.
Tagger\Tag::div('Hello World!');
Instead of passing the content in directly, content can be set after the tag has already been initialized.
Tagger\Tag::div()->content('Hello World!');
The content of a tag can also be set using an anonymous function.
Tagger\Tag::div(function ($tag) {
return 'Hello World!';
});
Attributes can be set in a variety of different ways.
// <div id="main"></div>
Tagger\Tag::div()->id('main');
$tag = Tagger\Tag::div();
$tag->id = 'main';
Please note that some HTML attributes can't be set using dynamic accessors because they contain, for example, a hyphen.
// <div data-title="Hello World!">
Tagger\Tag::div()->setAttribute('data-title', 'Hello World!');
It is also possible to set multiple attributes at the same time.
$attributes = array(
'id' => 'main',
'data-title' => 'Hello World!',
);
Tagger\Tag::div()->setAttributes($attributes);
Please note that all ways of setting attributes return the object to allow for chaining.
There are three possible ways to render a tag to HTML.
$tag = Tagger\Tag::div();
// All following lines will output: <div></div>
echo $tag;
echo $tag->render();
echo $tag->open() . $tag->close();
It is possible to check if a tag has certain attributes.
$tag = Tagger\Tag::div()->id('main')->class('container');
$tag->hasAttribute('id'); // true
$tag->hasAttributes(array('id', 'class')); // true
$tag->hasAttributes(array('class', 'title')); // false
