Hi @elecoest ,

I think the main issue is that your gantry template is using Twig v1 and this library uses Twig v2. This is exactly why I created this package. To allow extensions like grantry, etc. to ship their specific logic without having to worry about Twig version. But this needs time and willing to use standard packages.

I don't use Gantry but I have a guess fix for you if you want to hack gantry. I don't really recommend it but it will help you to also report the issue to them.

In the line 49 of the file:
/home/alleve87/public_html/libraries/gantry5/classes/Gantry/Component/Twig/TokenParserTry.php

You have a __construct() method with the first parameter type casted to \Twig_NodeInterface. You can replace that with: \Twig_Node and it should work.

I'm not going to create a joomla-twig version compatible with the old Twig v1 because it's a new library and the idea is that developers adopt it in their future releases. It makes no sense to ask them to rewrite their packages to use an obsolete Twig version. The best moment for them to start using ´joomla-twig` is when updating their extensions to use Twig v2.
