I'm looking for documentation on how to use operators in hashes in Twig. Someone mentioned this in the Google+ support group the other day and I was unable to find any docs or examples.

{% set eventParams = {
  section       : 'events',
  order         : 'startDateTime asc',
  startDateTime : '>= '~now
} %}

If I wanted the startDateTime hash to use a range of dates, say ( >= now and <= now + 5 days ) how would I specify that in the startDateTime hash?

Is this a hash syntax that is specific to Twig?

That's what you are after:

startDateTime : 'and', '>= ' ~ now, '<= ' ~ now | date_modify('+5 days')

  • Is there more info about this in the docs? This is super helpful to learn.

  • Sorry, didn't find anything in the docs. I learned about that technique in a g+ thread the other day. The only additional info I can give you is that you can also combine operators with 'or'.

    How would you use an "and" with an "or" for example: ( >= now and <= now + 5 days ) || ( >= now + 10 days and <= now + 15 days ) ?

  • For some reason this is throwing an error for me. It doesn't seem to like the extra commas ('and, ..., ...') used within the params object declaration {}. How did you get this to work?

  • @DouglasMcDonald what you need to the right of the : is a string: 'and, >= '~now~', <= '~(now|date_modify('+5 days'))
