layout/section/super

The @layout tag allows you define the layout template for the current template.

  • The tag must be used on the first line of the template. Otherwise, it will be ignored.
  • It is an inline tag and accepts the layout path.
  • You cannot define a layout at runtime. The value has to be a static string, since layouts are processed at the compile time.
@layout('layouts/main')

section

The template using the layout must define all the markup inside the sections exported by the layout. Any content outside of the @section tag is ignored.

  • @section is a block level tag.
  • It accepts the section name as the only argument.
  • The section name has to be a static string. Runtime values are not allowed.
  • All section tags must appear as top level tags. Meaning you cannot nest a section inside a conditional or a loop.
@layout('layouts/main')



@section('body')

  The content for the body section

@end



@section('footer')

  The content for the footer section

@end

The layout also has to export the sections with the same name.

@!section('body')

@!section('footer')

super

The @super tag allows you to inherit the existing content of the section. It is an inline tag and does not accept any arguments.

@layout('layouts/main')



@section('scripts')

  @super

  <script src="{{ asset('autocomplete.js') }}"></script>

@end
