Marks

Module use marks for replace variables in templates.

• {{PascalCase}} - PascalCase by schema name
• {{camelCase}} - camelCase by schema name
• {{snake_case}} - snake_case by schema name
• {{kebab-case}} - kebab-case by schema name
• {{UPPERCASE}} - UPPERCASE by schema name
• {{lowercase}} - lowercase by schema name
• {{[key]}} - custom key from property custom_fields on config ( see Custom Fields )

Example ¶

for schema name Product Items replace marks:

• {{PascalCase}} - ProductItems
• {{camelCase}} - productItems
• {{snake_case}} - product_items
• {{kebab-case}} - product-items
• {{UPPERCASE}} - PRODUCT ITEMS
• {{lowercase}} - product items

Cache
<small style="color: #009; font-size:9px">(optional)</small>

Configuration for the cache folder with schema data.

• dir - path to the cache directory with schema data
• ext - extension of the cache file

Default configuration: `php $config['modules']['gii'] = [

'class' => Module::class,
    'generators' => [
        'fileCrafter' => [
        'options' => [
            // ... 
            'cache' => [

    'template2.tpl' => 'path/from/project/root/to/resultFile.php',
    // ...

• some @ alias ( source['dir'] - default container )
• ext for generate any file type ( .php default )

Source folder path can be set in the configuration file. ( see Source )

Content of the templates file rendered with the View method renderFile
And prepared with the $replaceList array contains all marks. ( see Marks )
And also passed to the render method:

• $schema - schema object
• $generator - self generator object
