Smarty Quick Installation

Install Library Files
   * Extrac the  downloaded zip archive 
   * Copy the Smarty library files to your system. 
     - cp -r libs  /usr/local/lib/php/Smarty 

$> cd YOUR_DOWNLOAD_DIR
$> gtar -zxvf Smarty-3.0.tar.gz
$> mkdir /usr/local/lib/php/Smarty
$> cp -r Smarty-3.0/libs/* /usr/local/lib/php/Smarty

/usr/local/lib/php/Smarty/
    debug.tpl
    plugins/
    Smarty.class.php
    sysplugins/


 * You will need four directories setup for Smarty to work.
   These files are for templates, compiled templates, 
   cached templates and config files. 
   You may or may not use caching or config files, 
   but it is a good idea to set them up anyways. 
   It is also recommended to place them outside of the web server document root. 
   The web server PHP user will need write access to the cache and compile 
   directories as well.


In our example, the document root is /web/www.kutayzorlu.com/docs
 and the web server username is "nobody". 
We will keep our Smarty 
files under /web/www.kutayzorlu.com/smarty/. 
If you are using FTP/sFTP, 
your FTP software should help you 
with setting the file permissions. 
775 means user/group = read/write, other = read.


$> cd /web/www.kutayzorlu.com
$> mkdir smarty
$> mkdir smarty/templates
$> mkdir smarty/templates_c
$> mkdir smarty/cache
$> mkdir smarty/configs
$> chown nobody:nobody smarty/templates_c
$> chown nobody:nobody smarty/cache
$> chmod 775 smarty/templates_c
$> chmod 775 smarty/cache

# ---------------------------------------------------------
$> cd /web/www.example.com/docs
$> mkdir myapp
$> cd myapp
$> vi index.php


$ vi     index.php 


<?php

// put full path to Smarty.class.php
require('/usr/local/lib/php/Smarty/Smarty.class.php');
$smarty = new Smarty();

$smarty->setTemplateDir('/web/www.kutayzorlu.com/smarty/templates');
$smarty->setCompileDir('/web/www.kutayzorlu.com/smarty/templates_c');
$smarty->setCacheDir('/web/www.kutayzorlu.com/smarty/cache');
$smarty->setConfigDir('/web/www.kutayzorlu.com/smarty/configs');

$smarty->assign('name', 'Ned');
$smarty->display('index.tpl');

?>

Create Template
command line
$> nano /web/www.kutayzorlu.com/smarty/templates/index.tpl
Edit the index.tpl file with the following:

index.tpl
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Smarty</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    Hello, {$name}!
  </body>
</html>

http://www.kutayzorlu.com/myapp/index.php in our example. 
You should see the text "Hello Ned!" in your browser.

Php Smarty template lib

Posted on December 16, 2015December 29, 2015 by coder

It is perfect template lib for php developers, Easy to develop specific projects and increase speed of the project.

Code Example :

Example 7.17. Simple {include} example


<html>
<head>
  <title>{$title}</title>
</head>
<body>
{include file='page_header.tpl'}

{* body of template goes here, the $tpl_name variable
   is replaced with a value eg 'contact.tpl'
*}
{include file="$tpl_name.tpl"}

{include file='page_footer.tpl'}
</body>
</html>

Example 7.17. Simple {include} example

<html>

<head>

<title>{$title}</title>

</head>

<body>

{include file='page_header.tpl'}

{* body of template goes here, the $tpl_name variable

is replaced with a value eg 'contact.tpl'

{include file="$tpl_name.tpl"}

{include file='page_footer.tpl'}

</body>

</html>

Of course you should install your smarty to your server.

Quick Smarty Install
In Debian Etch:

apt-get install smarty
edit php.ini (mine's at /etc/php5/apache2 and set include_path to ".:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear:/usr/share/php/smarty/libs"
restart apache2 with /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

apt-get install smarty

edit php.ini (mine's at /etc/php5/apache2 and set include_path to ".:/usr/share/php:/usr/share/pear:/usr/share/php/smarty/libs"

restart apache2 with /etc/init.d/apache2 restart

Now you have a Smarty install. To use it, you’ll need PHP code to drive Smarty. I’ll include a sample bit of PHP code that I was working on with Mike A:

<?php
require("Smarty.class.php");
$smarty = new Smarty();

$dir = '/var/www-sites.d/malborn.kutayzorlu.com';

$smarty->template_dir = $dir . '/smarty/templates';
$smarty->compile_dir = $dir . '/smarty/templates_c';
$smarty->cache_dir = $dir . '/smarty/cache';
$smarty->config_dir =$dir . '/smarty/configs';

$content = implode('', file($dir . "/index.txt"));
$head = implode('', file($dir . "/head.txt"));
$footer = implode('', file($dir . "/footer.txt"));
$navbar = implode('', file($dir . "/navbar.txt"));

if(preg_match('/<title>(.*?)<\/title>/is', $head, $m)) {
$title = $m[1];
} else {
$title = "Default Title";
}

$smarty->assign("title", $title);
$smarty->assign("head", $head);
$smarty->assign("footer", $footer);
$smarty->assign("content", $content);
$smarty->assign("navbar", $navbar);
$smarty->display("default.tpl");
?>

<?php

require("Smarty.class.php");

$smarty = new Smarty();

$dir = '/var/www-sites.d/malborn.kutayzorlu.com';

$smarty->template_dir = $dir . '/smarty/templates';

$smarty->compile_dir = $dir . '/smarty/templates_c';

$smarty->cache_dir = $dir . '/smarty/cache';

$smarty->config_dir =$dir . '/smarty/configs';

$content = implode('', file($dir . "/index.txt"));

$head = implode('', file($dir . "/head.txt"));

$footer = implode('', file($dir . "/footer.txt"));

$navbar = implode('', file($dir . "/navbar.txt"));

if(preg_match('/<title>(.*?)<\/title>/is', $head, $m)) {

$title = $m[1];

} else {

$title = "Default Title";

}

$smarty->assign("title", $title);

$smarty->assign("head", $head);

$smarty->assign("footer", $footer);

$smarty->assign("content", $content);

$smarty->assign("navbar", $navbar);

$smarty->display("default.tpl");

Now, for Smarty to operate you need to supply some directories (i.e. template_dir, compile_dir, cache_dir, config_dir). compile_dir and cache_dir need to writeable by the web server user so in Debian something like:

#!/bin/bash

DIR=/var/www-sites.d/malborn.kutayzorlu.com

mkdir $DIR/smarty
mkdir $DIR/smarty/cache
mkdir $DIR/smarty/configs
mkdir $DIR/smarty/templates
mkdir $DIR/smarty/templates_c

sudo chown -r :www-data $DIR/smarty/cache
sudo chown -r :www-data $DIR/smarty/templates_c

#!/bin/bash

DIR=/var/www-sites.d/malborn.kutayzorlu.com

mkdir $DIR/smarty

mkdir $DIR/smarty/cache

mkdir $DIR/smarty/configs

mkdir $DIR/smarty/templates

mkdir $DIR/smarty/templates_c

sudo chown -r :www-data $DIR/smarty/cache

sudo chown -r :www-data $DIR/smarty/templates_c

Write default.tpl into $DIR/smarty/templates/default.tpl . For example,

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"
"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">
<html>

<head>
{$head}
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1"/>
<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="default.css" media="screen"/>
<title>{$title}</title>
</head>

<body>

<div class="body">

<div class="title">{$title}</div>

<div class="subnav">

<h1>Navigation</h1>
{$navbar}

</div>

<div class="main">

{$content}

</div>

<div class="footer">

{$footer}

</div>

</div>

</body>
</html>

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.1//EN"

"http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/DTD/xhtml11.dtd">

<html>

<head>

{$head}

<title>{$title}</title>

</head>

<body>

<div class="title">{$title}</div>

<h1>Navigation</h1>

{$navbar}

</div>

{$content}

</div>

{$footer}

</div>

</body>

</html>

* 1. Download smarty packages

* 2. Extract them somewhere else

* 3 . Write extration path to inside of php.ini file, include_path

* 4. then restart httpd

5 . Create php file , (write template folder path )

6. Create Template file .

Now, moving from here would be something like:

1. Writing code to check for a navbar.txt in the current direction. If not found, stuff navbar Smarty tag with “Back up a level” that moves up one subdirectory (i.e. go to /directory/index.html if you were are /directory/author.html, and go to /index.html when you were are /directory/index.html, etc.)
2. Could proceed by designing a number of templates in Smarty for the same basic content – i.e. skin-bluesteel.tpl and then providing a user interface to switch templates.
3. Perhaps eliminate filesystem reliance and put URL’s into a database.

Map /directory to /directory/index.html, similar with /.

If not in database, display a generic 404 error. You can develop this script by calling it like
/database-script-were-writing.php/directory/index.html and then looking into
PATH_INFO from the server which will contain /directory/index.html .

Once you have this perfected, you set up apache with something like
“Alias / /var/www-sites.d/malborn.kutayzorlu.com/database-script-were-writing.php”

and everything should pretty much just work.
