Twig Extensions

This module provides common additional features for Twig that do not directly belong in core. It used to include these through the twig/extensions package, but since that has been abandoned the extensions have been included in the module itself.

Filters

Extension name	Description
`shuffle`	Shuffles an array.
`time_diff`	Converts dates to a time ago string like Facebook and Twitter has.
`localizeddate`	Formats dates using `\IntlDateFormatter`.
`localizednumber`	Formats numbers using `\IntlDateFormatter`.
`localizedcurrency`	Formats currencies using `\IntlDateFormatter`.
`truncate`	Truncates text to a certain length, optionally preserving words.
`wordwrap`	Wraps a string into new lines when it reaches a specific length.
