Split ViewHelper <f:split>

The SplitViewHelper splits a string by the specified separator, which results in an array. The number of values in the resulting array can be limited with the limit parameter, which results in an array where the last item contains the remaining unsplit string.

This ViewHelper mimicks PHP's explode() function.

The following examples store the result in a variable because an array cannot be outputted directly in a template.

<f:variable name="result"><f:split value="1,5,8" separator="," /></f:variable>

{0: '1', 1: '5', 2: '8'}

<f:variable name="result"><f:split separator="-">1-5-8</f:split></f:variable>

{0: '1', 1: '5', 2: '8'}

<f:variable name="result"><f:split value="1,5,8" separator="," limit="2" /></f:variable>

{0: '1', 1: '5,8'}
