Public Properties

Property	Type	Description
$blocks		a list of named output blocks. The keys are the block names and the values are the corresponding block content. You can call View::beginBlock and View::endBlock to capture small fragments of a view. They can be later accessed somewhere else through this property.
$cacheStack		a list of currently active fragment cache widgets. This property is used internally to implement the content caching feature. Do not modify it directly.
$context		the context under which the View::renderFile method is being invoked.
$defaultExtension		the default view file extension. This will be appended to view file names if they don't have file extensions.
$dynamicPlaceholders		a list of placeholders for embedding dynamic contents. This property is used internally to implement the content caching feature. Do not modify it directly.
$params		custom parameters that are shared among view templates.
$renderers		a list of available renderers indexed by their corresponding supported file extensions. Each renderer may be a view renderer object or the configuration for creating the renderer object. For example, the following configuration enables both Smarty and Twig view renderers: php [ 'tpl' => ['class' => 'yii\smarty\ViewRenderer'], 'twig' => ['class' => 'yii\twig\ViewRenderer'], ] If no renderer is available for the given view file, the view file will be treated as a normal PHP and rendered via View::renderPhpFile.
$theme		the theme object or the configuration for creating the theme object. If not set, it means theming is not enabled.

Method Details

addDynamicPlaceholder() public method

This method is internally used.

public addDynamicPlaceholder ( string $placeholder, string $statements )
$placeholder	string	the placeholder name
$statements	string	the PHP statements for generating the dynamic content

afterRender() public method

The default implementation will trigger the [[EVENT_AFTER_RENDER]] event. If you override this method, make sure you call the parent implementation first.

public afterRender ( string $viewFile, array $params, string &$output )
$viewFile	string	the view file being rendered.
$params	array	the parameter array passed to the [[render()]] method.
$output	string	the rendering result of the view file. Updates to this parameter will be passed back and returned by [[renderFile()]].

beforeRender() public method

The default implementation will trigger the [[EVENT_BEFORE_RENDER]] event. If you override this method, make sure you call the parent implementation first.

public beforeRender ( string $viewFile, array $params ) : boolean
$viewFile	string	the view file to be rendered.
$params	array	the parameter array passed to the [[render()]] method.
return	boolean	whether to continue rendering the view file.

beginBlock() public method

This method is a shortcut to beginning [[Block]]

public beginBlock ( string $id, boolean $renderInPlace = false ) : Block
$id	string	the block ID.
$renderInPlace	boolean	whether to render the block content in place. Defaults to false, meaning the captured block will not be displayed.
return	yii\widgets\Block	the Block widget instance

beginCache() public method

This method will display cached content if it is available. If not, it will start caching and would expect an View::endCache call to end the cache and save the content into cache. A typical usage of fragment caching is as follows, php if ($this->beginCache($id)) { ...generate content here $this->endCache(); }

public beginCache ( string $id, array $properties = [] ) : boolean
$id	string	a unique ID identifying the fragment to be cached.
$properties	array	initial property values for [[FragmentCache]]
return	boolean	whether you should generate the content for caching. False if the cached version is available.

beginContent() public method

This method can be used to implement nested layout. For example, a layout can be embedded in another layout file specified as '@app/views/layouts/base.php' like the following: php beginContent('@app/views/layouts/base.php'); ?> ...layout content here... endContent(); ?>

beginPage() public method

Marks the beginning of a page.

public beginPage ( )

endBlock() public method

Ends recording a block.

public endBlock ( )

endCache() public method

Ends fragment caching.

public endCache ( )

endContent() public method

Ends the rendering of content.

public endContent ( )

endPage() public method

Marks the ending of a page.

public endPage ( )

evaluateDynamicContent() public method

This method is mainly used internally to implement dynamic content feature.

public evaluateDynamicContent ( string $statements ) : mixed
$statements	string	the PHP statements to be evaluated.
return	mixed	the return value of the PHP statements.

findViewFile() protected method

Finds the view file based on the given view name.

protected findViewFile ( string $view, object $context = null ) : string
$view	string	the view name or the path alias of the view file. Please refer to [[render()]] on how to specify this parameter.
$context	object	the context to be assigned to the view and can later be accessed via [[context]] in the view. If the context implements [[ViewContextInterface]], it may also be used to locate the view file corresponding to a relative view name.
return	string	the view file path. Note that the file may not exist.

getViewFile() public method

public getViewFile ( ) : string \| boolean
return	string \| boolean	the view file currently being rendered. False if no view file is being rendered.

init() public method

Initializes the view component.

public init ( )

render() public method

The view to be rendered can be specified in one of the following formats: - path alias (e.g. "@app/views/site/index"); - absolute path within application (e.g. "//site/index"): the view name starts with double slashes. The actual view file will be looked for under the [[Application::viewPath|view path]] of the application. - absolute path within current module (e.g. "/site/index"): the view name starts with a single slash. The actual view file will be looked for under the [[Module::viewPath|view path]] of the [[Controller::module|current module]]. - relative view (e.g. "index"): the view name does not start with @ or /. The corresponding view file will be looked for under the [[ViewContextInterface::getViewPath()|view path]] of the view $context. If $context is not given, it will be looked for under the directory containing the view currently being rendered (i.e., this happens when rendering a view within another view).

renderDynamic() public method

This method is mainly used together with content caching (fragment caching and page caching) when some portions of the content (called *dynamic content*) should not be cached. The dynamic content must be returned by some PHP statements.

public renderDynamic ( string $statements ) : string
$statements	string	the PHP statements for generating the dynamic content.
return	string	the placeholder of the dynamic content, or the dynamic content if there is no active content cache currently.

renderFile() public method

If [[theme]] is enabled (not null), it will try to render the themed version of the view file as long as it is available. The method will call [[FileHelper::localize()]] to localize the view file. If [[renderers|renderer]] is enabled (not null), the method will use it to render the view file. Otherwise, it will simply include the view file as a normal PHP file, capture its output and return it as a string.

public renderFile ( string $viewFile, array $params = [], object $context = null ) : string
$viewFile	string	the view file. This can be either an absolute file path or an alias of it.
$params	array	the parameters (name-value pairs) that will be extracted and made available in the view file.
$context	object	the context that the view should use for rendering the view. If null, existing [[context]] will be used.
return	string	the rendering result

renderPhpFile() public method

This method treats the view file as a PHP script and includes the file. It extracts the given parameters and makes them available in the view file. The method captures the output of the included view file and returns it as a string. This method should mainly be called by view renderer or View::renderFile.

public renderPhpFile ( string $_file_, array $_params_ = [] ) : string
$_file_	string	the view file.
$_params_	array	the parameters (name-value pairs) that will be extracted and made available in the view file.
return	string	the rendering result
