You can easily access theme configuration and theme information from your Twig and PHP files.

Accessing Theme Information

Information from the currently active theme can get from the registry object.

Example information from /site/themes/default/theme.yaml

name: Default
version: 1.0.0
description: Default theme for Flextype
author:
  name: Sergey Romanenko
  email: hello@romanenko.digital
  url: http://romanenko.digital
homepage: https://github.com/flextype/flextype
bugs: https://github.com/flextype/flextype/issues
license: MIT

You can reach any of these items via registry.themes by using the standard dot-syntax:

Usage:

Theme name: {{ registry.themes.default.name }}
Theme version: {{ registry.themes.default.version }}

Result:

Theme name: Default
Theme version: 1.0.0

You can also reach these same values from a Flextype plugin(s) with PHP syntax:

Usage:

$theme_name = $flextype->registry->get('themes.default.name');
$theme_version = $flextype->registry->get('themes.default.version');

Accessing Theme Configuration

Themes have default and site configuration files, named settings.yaml located in /site/themes/<themename>/ and in /site/config/themes/<themename>/

For example, let us consider the Default theme and there is a file called settings.yaml in the themes site settings folder. The contents of this configuration file look like this:

enabled: true

Let us add some custom theme settings. Open /site/config/themes/default/settings.yaml and add new variable with value highlight: red

enabled: true
highlight: red

Then in your theme templates you can access these variable using the registry.themes.default object:

<h1 style="color:{{ registry.themes.default.highlight }}">
    BUILD FAST, FLEXIBLE, EASIER TO MANAGE WEBSITES WITH FLEXTYPE.
</h1>

Result:

BUILD FAST, FLEXIBLE, EASIER TO MANAGE WEBSITES WITH FLEXTYPE.

In PHP you can access the current theme configuration like this:

$highlight = $flextype->registry->get('themes.default.highlight');
