Create a custom Twig filter in Drupal 8
Create hello_world folder in modules/custom/ folder with the following files,
1. hello_world.services.yml // It would contain following lines,
services:
hello_world.twig_extension:
arguments: ['@renderer']
class: Drupal\hello_world\TwigExtension\RemoveNumbers
tags:
- { name: twig.extension }
2. src/TwigExtension/RemoveNumbers.php It would contain followings in that:
namespace Drupal\hello_world\TwigExtension;
class RemoveNumbers extends \Twig_Extension {
/**
* Generates a list of all Twig filters that this extension defines.
*/
public function getFilters() {
return [
new \Twig_SimpleFilter('website', array($this, 'removeSpecialCharcter')),
];
}
/**
* Gets a unique identifier for this Twig extension.
*/
public function getName() {
return 'hello_world.twig_extension';
}
/**
* Replaces all numbers from the string.
*/
public static function removeSpecialCharcter($string) {
// write your code logic
return preg_replace('#[0-9]*#', '', $string);
}
}
Enable the hello_world module and clear the cache, then you could use the “website“ filters in your twig file. ‘Clear all Cache’ from this url: yourdomain.com/admin/config/development/performance
{{ twig-value | website }}
