What happened?
It is not possible to reuse the string result of a View Layout $this->renderSection() due the function clear the data after display.
I have a use case, Where, I need to re-use the section multiple times in View Layout.
E.g.
<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title><?= $this->renderSection('page_title') ?></title> <!------------- Work Fine ! -->
</head>
<body>
<h1 class="heading"><?= $this->renderSection('page_title') ?></h1> <!------------- Problem Here ! -->
<?= $this->renderSection('content') ?>
</body>
</html>Steps to Reproduce
Use renderSection() multiple times for same variable in a View Layout.
Expected Output
Expect to can save result of renderSection() and reuse.
/**
* Renders a section's contents.
* @param bool $saveData If true, saves data for subsequent calls,
* if false, cleans the data after displaying,
*/
public function renderSection(string $sectionName, bool $saveData = false)
{
if (! isset($this->sections[$sectionName])) {
echo '';
return;
}
foreach ($this->sections[$sectionName] as $key => $contents) {
echo $contents;
if($saveData === false)
{
unset($this->sections[$sectionName][$key]);
}
}
}Anything else?
