[BUG] global values (add_to_context) are missing in macro

[paallaire]

Expected Behavior

{{ dist }} should print ( get_template_directory_uri() . '/dist'; )

Actual behavior

{{ dist }} print nothing.

Steps to reproduce behavior

class StarterSite

public function add_to_context($context)
{

/* site */
$context['site'] = $this;
$context['env'] = wp_get_environment_type();
$context['dist'] = get_template_directory_uri() . '/dist';
$context['primary_navigation'] = Timber::get_menu('primary_navigation');
              $context['secondary_navigation'] = Timber::get_menu('secondary_navigation');

return $context;
}

Macro and usage

      {% macro renderIcon(name, cssClass = '', ariaHidden = 'true') %}
        {% if name|default %}
          <svg class="icon {{ name }} {{ cssClass }}" aria-hidden="{{ ariaHidden }}">
            <use href="{{ dist }}/sprite/sprite.svg{{ '#' ~ name }}"/>
          </svg>
        {% endif %}
      {% endmacro %}

      {% set icons = ['arrow-right', 'burger'] %}
      <ul class="flex flex-wrap gap-2">
        {% for icon in icons %}
          <li class="aspect-square w-16 border border-solid border-gray-400 flex justify-center items-center text-[64px]">
            {{ ui.renderIcon(icon) }}
          </li>
        {% endfor %}
      </ul>

Macros don't inherit the context. You have to pass pieces of them as parameters. Please read: https://twig.symfony.com/doc/3.x/tags/macro.html.

You could create a PHP function which you can register to Timber/Twig so you could use

get_dist()

in your macro.

Please read https://timber.github.io/docs/v2/guides/extending-twig/#adding-functionality-with-the-twig-environment-filter
