# `template_from_string`

The `template_from_string` function loads a template from a string:

    {{ include(template_from_string("Hello {{ name }}")) }}
    {{ include(template_from_string(page.template)) }}

To ease debugging, you can also give the template a name that will be part of any related error message:

    {{ include(template_from_string(page.template, "template for page " ~ page.name)) }}

Note

The `template_from_string` function is not available by default. You must add the `\Twig\Extension\StringLoaderExtension` extension explicitly when creating your Twig environment:

    $twig = new \Twig\Environment(...);
    $twig->addExtension(new \Twig\Extension\StringLoaderExtension());

Note

Even if you will probably always use the `template_from_string` function with the `include` function, you can use it with any tag or function that takes a template as an argument (like the `embed` or `extends` tags).

## Arguments

- `template`: The template

- `name`: A name for the template
