Support for conditional statements

[Donnie]

I have been looking for a script which would also process conditional statements in string.

for e.g:
$string = 'My name is {name} and I scored {if: score>10 then well else poorly}.

This would be great. Have you found a solution?

Conditional can be rendered using PHP

• this approach is acceptable if the conditional can be specified in PHP
  

Alternatively conditional can be rendered using JMESPATH

• this approach is acceptable if the conditional must be provided as a string

Hi, old issue here, me too, I needed support for conditionnal and I added it : here is my pull request for this feature ( as well as some other improvements ) : #22

You can use a simple condition:

$engine = new StringTemplate\Engine();

//Returns Oh! You
$engine->render(
    'Oh! {#name}{test}{/name}',
    [
        'name' => true,
        'test' => 'You'
    ]);

You can use a simple condition with else:

$engine = new StringTemplate\Engine();

//Returns Oh! My
$engine->render(
    'Oh! {#name}{test}{#else}My{/name}',
    [
        'name' => false,
        'test' => 'You'
    ]);
