Improve Sulu CMS template management: How to use lifestyle/sulu-template-api-bundle

When using Sulu CMS for website development, I encountered a problem: I need to uniformly manage templates between different pages. Each modification of the head and tail template requires manual update of multiple pages, which is not only time consuming and error-prone. I tried multiple methods and finally found the solution of lifestyle/sulu-template-api-bundle , which greatly simplified the template management process through easy integration through Composer.

First of all, the installation of this library is very simple. Just execute the following command through Composer:

 <code>composer require lifestyle/sulu-template-api-bundle</code>

After installation, several steps need to be configured:

1. Add to abstract kernel : Add the following code in app/AbstractKernel.php :

    abstract class AbstractKernel extends SuluKernel { public function registerBundles() { $bundles = [ ... new LifeStyle\Sulu\TemplateApiBundle\LifeStyleSuluTemplateApiBundle(), ... ]; ... } ... }

2. Add route : Add the following routing configuration in app/config/website/routing.yml :

   <code> life_style_api_route: resource: "@LifeStyleSuluTemplateApiBundle/Resources/config/routing.yml" prefix: /</code>

3. Configuration file : Add the following configuration in app/config/config.yml :

   <code> life_style_sulu_template_api: available_languages: [&#39;de&#39;, &#39;en&#39;] header_template: &#39;@LifestyleSuluTemplate/templates/includes/header/header.html.twig&#39; footer_template: &#39;@LifestyleSuluTemplate/templates/includes/footer/footer.html.twig&#39;</code>

After the configuration is complete, you can obtain template data through the API request. For example, initiate a GET request:

 <code>GET http://your-domain.tld/{locale}/api/template.json</code>

You will get a response similar to the following:

 <code>{ "scriptTimeSec": 0.5397, "locale": "de", "webspace": "sulu-webspace-name", "headerHtml": "some html markup", "footerHtml": "some html markup" }</code>

After using lifestyle/sulu-template-api-bundle , I found that template management became more efficient and unified. Each time you modify the head and tail templates, just update them once, and all pages will automatically apply new template content. This not only saves time, but also reduces the risk of human error.

In general, lifestyle/sulu-template-api-bundle is easily integrated through Composer, providing powerful template management functions, greatly improving the development efficiency and maintenance convenience of Sulu CMS projects. If you are also facing similar template management issues, you might as well try this solution.
