I'm very new to Laravel and I'm trying to figure out how to use the templating.
I feel so sure that what I have here should work, but I keep getting an error when I run it. I think it has to do with having to @yield commands on the same line. Is this simply a limitation of the blade engine?
routes.php
Route::get('/', function()
{
return View::make('hello');
});
// Test Route:
Route::get('jtest', function(){
$page = array(
"lang" => "en",
"title" => "jtest",
"css" => "css/layout.css",
"rand" => rand()
);
return View::make('jtest')->with('page', $page);
});
jtest.blade.php
@extends('layout')
@section('html-lang')
@if ( isset($page['lang']) )
{{ $page['lang'] }}
@endif
@endsection
@section('title')
@if ( isset($page['title']) )
{{ $page['title'] }}
@endif
@endsection
@section('meta-description')
@if ( isset($page['meta-description']) )
{{ $page['meta-description'] }}
@endif
@endsection
@section('css')
@if ( isset( $page['css'] ) )
{{ $page['css'] }}
@endif
@endsection
@section('rand')
@if ( isset( $page['rand'] ) )
{{ $page['rand'] }}
@endif
@endsection
layout.blade.php
<!doctype html>
<html lang="@yield('html-lang')">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<title>@yield('title')</title>
<meta name="description" content="@yield('meta-description')">
<meta name="author" content="Jimmy Hogoboom">
<link rel="stylesheet" href="@yield('css')?r=@yield('rand')">
<!--[if lt IE 9]>
<script src="http://html5shiv.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script>
<![endif]-->
</head>
<body>
<script src=""></script>
</body>
</html>
And the error is
syntax error, unexpected '='
and the line the error's on looks like this:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="<?php echo $__env->yieldContent('css')?r=@yield('rand'); ?>">
So the problem is here:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="@yield('css')?r=@yield('rand')">
If I remove the second @yield
:
<link rel="stylesheet" href="@yield('css')?r=">
the page loads fine.
So is this just a limitation of blade, or is there some other way I should be placing these values in the page?
