Twig equivalent of lcfirst

Question

I'm not able to find a equivalent of lcfirst php function in Twig, my need is to lower only the first letter of a word ? If such function doesn't exist, what is the best way to do it ?

Answer 1

As discussed in this issue on Github, you could use:

{{ foo[:1]|lower ~ foo[1:] }}

See this working example.

Answer 2

Just add the function into twig by chaining it with a filter, e.g.

$twig->addFilter(new \Twig\TwigFilter('lcfirst', 'lcfirst'));

Then use it inside any twig template like

{{ string | lcfirst }}
