Templates
|
|
=========
|
|
|
|
You can create a docx template with included search-patterns that can be
|
|
replaced by any value you wish. Only single-line values can be replaced.
|
|
To load a template file, use the ``loadTemplate`` method. After loading
|
|
the docx template, you can use the ``setValue`` method to change the
|
|
value of a search pattern. The search-pattern model is:
|
|
``${search-pattern}``. It is not possible to add new PHPWord elements to
|
|
a loaded template file.
|
|
|
|
Example:
|
|
|
|
.. code-block:: php
|
|
|
|
$template = $phpWord->loadTemplate('Template.docx');
|
|
$template->setValue('Name', 'Somebody someone');
|
|
$template->setValue('Street', 'Coming-Undone-Street 32');
|

See ``Sample_07_TemplateCloneRow.php`` for example on how to create multirow
|
|
from a single row in a template by using ``cloneRow``.
|
|
|
|
See ``Sample_23_TemplateBlock.php`` for example on how to clone a block of
|
|
text using ``cloneBlock`` and delete a block of text using ``deleteBlock``.
