Twig Components / Methods / currency_symbol

currency_symbol(locale = null) is a Twig filter to return the currency symbol given its three-letter code:

{# € #}
{{ 'EUR'|currency_symbol }}

{# ¥ #}
{{ 'JPY'|currency_symbol }}

By default, the filter uses the current locale. You can pass it explicitly:

{# ¥ #}
{{ 'JPY'|currency_symbol('fr') }}

Note¶

The currency_name filter is part of the IntlExtension which is not installed by default. Install it first:

$ composer require twig/intl-extra

Then, on Symfony projects, install the twig/extra-bundle:

$ composer require twig/extra-bundle</pre>

Otherwise, add the extension explicitly on the Twig environment:

use Twig\Extra\Intl\IntlExtension;

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

Arguments¶

• locale: The locale
