Use function without class?

[scramatte]

Does it possible to use function without embed them into a class ?

I mean for example:

class Formatters {
   public static function dummy() {
       return 'hello world';
   }
}

     ...
        $template = "{{dummy()}}F{{date.format('Ymd')}}-{{sequence.format(8)}}";
        $result = $render->renderTemplateString(
            $template,
            [
               'date' => new DateFormatter,
               'sequence' => new SequenceFormatter,
               'dummy' => Formatters::dummy,
            ]
      ...

Hi, as of version 1.9.0 you can use callbacks directly in your code. Compare the test cases at https://github.com/wol-soft/php-micro-template/blob/master/tests/RenderTest.php#L369.

Your example throws a PHP syntax error as the callable is defined wrong. Instead of Formatters::dummy you must use [Formatters::class, 'dummy'].

Cheers
