This module provides a central repository for theme templates, allowing themes to register their templates in YAML files instead of code. This makes theme definitions more organized and accessible for other modules to interact with. It also allows for the addition of administrative elements like labels, icons, and descriptions to these theme definitions.
This module allows other modules or themes to register theme templates on a YAML file (replacing hook_theme()) and provide a repository for all themes registered.
This will give more order to theme definitions, taking them away form code.
But moreover in this way themes and modules could gather information of registered themes implementation.
For example a module could alter block form to add select field to forms, providing a UI to easily assign predefined templates for elements, blocks or regions.
Among standard hook_theme() settings, the definition will add Admin UI elements like labels, icons, categories, descriptions.
Declaring themes
Themes must be registered on a *.themes.yml file with the following format:
block__clean:
label: Clean Wrapper
type: block
category: Block
configuration:
path: templates/clean
base hook: block
render element: elements
The id of the theme will name the template as in hook_theme().
Path is relative to the module or template, base path eill be added for proper rendering.
Basic functions
Style::stylePluginManager()->getDefinitions() will return all themes declared.
