Naming convention for taxonomy template in drupal 8.

The naming convention of taxonomy is very simple and we will explain by..

Example 1. If we have taxonomy with name of 'product groups' so our this taxonomy machine name will be 'product_groups' but we will take as a 'taxonomy-term--product-groups.html.twig' in naming convention.

Example 2. If we have taxonomy with name of 'service support' so our this taxonomy machine name will be 'service_support' but we will take as a 'taxonomy-term--services-support.html.twig' in naming convention.


Note: If have any suggestions or issue regarding 'Naming convention for taxonomy template' then you can ask by comments.

Multiple images store in variable and render on twig file.

Yes, we have option for render multiple images on any template file. We just have to create variable in .theme file and collect in array and then print array value by variable.

Example: First we have to take the step on hook_preprocess_node(&$variables). we have to check node value is available or not.

if(isset($variables['node'])){

    $node = $variables['node'];

    $current_node_id = $node->id(); //get the current node id

    $node_type = $node->type->target_id;  //get the current node type

    if($node_type == "applications"){  // we are going with example of applications content type nodes..
  
    /*  Now we will get the fields by node::load  */
  

    $categoryid = $node->get('field_category')->target_id; //here field_category is Category field machine_name..

        $category_detail = \Drupal\taxonomy\Entity\Term::load($categoryid);

        $variables['category_name'] = $category_detail->name->value;  // get the category name

        $variables['landing_page']  = $category_detail->field_setup_landing_page->value;  // get the field_setup_landing_page field value     

        /* here 'category_name' and 'landing_page' is our variable keys */    

        $node_detail = Node::load($current_node_id);                          


        $node_id = $node_detail->id();                   // get the node id

        $node_title = $node_detail->getTitle();          // get the node title

        $node_Published = $node_detail->isPublished();   // get the publish status

        $node_type = $node_detail->getType();            // get the node type

        $node_field_model_value = $node_detail->get('field_model')->value;   // get the field model value

        $node_field_price_value = $node_detail->get('field_price')->value;   // geth the field price value

         $img_urls = array();
        foreach ($node_detail->field_image as $item) { // get the field image with multiple image url
          if ($item->entity) {
            $img_urls[] = $item->entity->url();
          }
       
        }


        /* Now put the all values in array with keys for differentiate */

        $arr = array('id'       => $node_id,

                     'title'    => $node_title,

                     'published'=> $node_Published,

                     'type'     => $node_type,

                     'model'    => $node_field_model_value,

                     'price'    => $node_field_price_value,

                     'image'    => $img_urls

        );


        /* Now pass the $arr in final productfields variable like this.. */

        $variables['productfields'] = $arr;  

        This is our final product fields variable now we have to move on applications type twig file because we are working for specially applications type of contents.

        Suppose are applications type twig file name is 'node--applications--full.html.twig'. That file is for applications detail pages.

        <ul>

        {% for key, value in productfields %}
        {% if key == 'image' %}
            <ul>
            {% for keys, imgvalue in value %}
                <li class="{{ keys }}"><img src="{{ imgvalue }}"></li>
            {% endfor %}
            </ul>
        {% endif %}
        {% endfor %}  

        </ul>

  /* here 'productfields' is same variable name which we are created in 'hook_preprocess_node(&$variables)' hook in .theme file, so we just have to print the array keys and value by for loop in Symphony syntax, So that is the easy way to create custom variable and then render values in twig file. */

    }

Create custom variable in drupal 8 and render on template file.

We have alternate option for custom variable in drupal 8. Now we will going to describe that how to create custom variable and use on any template file.
here we are going to giving an example with easy steps for custom variable use and render on file.
Example: First we have to take the step on hook_preprocess_node(&$variables). we have to check node value is available or not.
if(isset($variables['node'])){
    $node = $variables['node'];

    $node_type = $node->type->target_id;  //get the current node type

    /*  Now we will get the fields by node::load  */
   
    $categoryid = $node->get('field_category')->target_id; //here field_category is Category field machine_name..
        $category_detail = \Drupal\taxonomy\Entity\Term::load($categoryid);
        $variables['category_name'] = $category_detail->name->value;  // get the category name
        $variables['landing_page']  = $category_detail->field_setup_landing_page->value;  // get the field_setup_landing_page field value

        $node_field_price_value = $node_detail->get('field_price')->value;   // geth the field price value
        $node_field_image_value = $node_detail->get('field_image')->entity->uri->value; // get the field image with single image url

        /* Now put the all values in array with keys for differentiate */
        $arr = array('id'       => $node_id,
                     'title'    => $node_title,

Drupal entity render on twig template.

We have few short codes or cheat codes for render views or blocks, entity, menu, field, form on twig template. This will help to publish all these things on twig file in easy way. we have some examples for easy to use these short code, Please have a look,
First thing most important is that we have to install 'Twig tweak' module on site that is required for render views, block and entity on twig file.
link for twig tweak module is https://www.drupal.org/project/twig_tweak

Render View on twig file:
{{ drupal_view('view_machine_name', 'block or view machine_name') }}
example:-  {{ drupal_view('application_resources', 'block_10') }}  

Render Block on twig file: 
{{ drupal_block('block_machine_name', wrapper=false) }}
example:-  {{ drupal_block('bartik_breadcrumbs') }}

Render Region on twig file: 
{{ drupal_region('sidebar_first') }}

Render Entity on twig file:
{{ drupal_entity('block_content', 1) }}

Render entity edit form:
{{ drupal_entity_form('node', 1) }}
/* here 1 is node id.*/

Render entity add form:
{{ drupal_entity_form('node', values={type: 'page'}) }}

Render single entity field:
{{ drupal_field('field_image', 'node', 1) }}
/* here field_image is from node 1 */

Render menu on twig file:
{{ drupal_menu('main') }}  or {{ drupal_menu('footer') }}
/* here main and footer parameter is the name of menu machine_name. */

Render any form on twig file:
{{ drupal_form('Drupal\\search\\Form\\SearchBlockForm') }}
/* here we are calling search block form. */



Note: If have any suggestions or issue regarding 'Drupal entity render on twig template' then you can ask by comments.

Programmatically render Block in a twig template drupal 8.

In drupal 7 syntax of render block in twig template is.

$block = module_invoke('module_name', 'block_view', 'block_delta');
print render($block['content']);

But now in drupal 8 syntax is changed, but first we have to install "Twig tweak" module that provides
a twig extension with useful functions an filters that can improve development experience.
here is the link for twig tweak module, please download from here..
https://www.drupal.org/project/twig_tweak
there will be cheat sheet for drupal 8 that helps in calling/render block or views in twig template file.

Drupal_view render..

Suppose we have to render/call view in twig template then syntax will be
{{ drupal_view('view_machine_name', 'block/page machine name') }}
Example:
{{ drupal_view('product_overview_video', 'block_2') }} 
here 'product_overview_video' is view machine name and 'block_2' is we created 2nd block on this view.

Drupal_block render..
Suppose we have to render/call block in existing block then our syntax will be
{{ drupal_block('block_machine_name', wrapper=false) }}
 Example:
{{ drupal_entity('block_content', 27) }}
here block_content is block machine name and 27 is block id.
OR
 {{ drupal_block('bartik_breadcrumbs') }}
we can direct call block by machine_name like breadcrumbs block. we just have to put the drupal_block function with machine_name and clear the cache and it will work.

Note: If have any suggestions or issue regarding 'Programmatically render Block in a twig template' then you can ask by comments.

Taxonomy terms load in drupal 8.

In drupal 7, we have taxonomy_term_load($tid), taxonomy_term_load_multiple($tids) functions for load the taxonomy term or multiple terms but now in drupal 8 syntax is changed and now Single/Multiple term load by Term::load($tid)
or
Add the name space at the top of the page.
\Drupal\taxonomy\Entity\Term::load($tid);

If we are using Symfony library and calling name space 
use Drupal\taxonomy\Entity\Term;
use Drupal\taxonomy;

or direct use in function calling time like  \Drupal\taxonomy\Entity\Term::load($tid);

Example:
$term_detail_array = \Drupal\taxonomy\Entity\Term::load($tid);
or
$term_detail_array = Term::load($tid); //if we are already using taxonomy library..

Then get the fields detail by $term_detail_array like,

Term id:  $term_detail_array ->tid->value;
Term name:  $term_detail_array ->name->value;
Term manually added field:  $term_detail_array ->get('field_machine_name')->value;  // manually added field value..
Term image field:  $term_detail_array ->field_machine_name->entity->getFileUri();

 If we have field with entity reference then field value will be in form of $term_detail_array ->get('field_machine_name')->target_id;
or
If we have field without entity reference then field value will be in form of $term_detail_array ->get('field_machine_name')->value;

Now we will discuss on Term::loadMultiple.
And the syntax is $terms = \Drupal\taxonomy\Entity\Term::loadMultiple($tids); // here $tids is the array of multiple tid..
$terms = \Drupal\taxonomy\Entity\Term::loadMultiple($tids); 
foreach ($terms as $term) {  //then the fields value will be..
$term_id = $term->tid->value;
$term_name = $term->name->value;
$term_file field = $term->field_machine_name->uri;
}
and so on..

User load by mail in drupal 8.

Yes, we can load the user detail by mail id in drupal 8. As per drupal syntax first we have to add user library for classes then we will user drupal load by mail function that is "user_load_by_mail()".

$check_user = user_load_by_mail($mailid);
 if (!empty($check_user)) {
     $uid = $check_user->id();
     $user_detail = \Drupal\user\Entity\User::load($uid);
                $user_id= $user_detail->get('uid')->value;
                $user_roles = $user_detail->getRoles();
                $user_status = $user_detail->isActive();
                $user_name = $user_detail->getUsername();
                $user_body = $user_detail->get('body')->value;               
                $user_email = $user_detail->get('mail')->value;
                $user_created_time = $user_detail->created->value;
                $user_field = $user_detail->get('field_machine_name')->value;  
                $user_loggedin_check = $user_detail ->login->value; // that will return 1 or 0
                if ($user_detail->login->value != 0) {
                    $first_login_data = date('Y-m-d H:i:s', $user_detail->login->value);
                } else {
                    $first_login_data = 'never';
                }
  }
