Drupal Set and Get the raw field value in a twig template #drupal8 #d8 #twig

DrupalSetAndGetFieldValueInTwigTemplate.txt

{{ entity.field_name.value }} to get the true raw value, includes tags and encoding.

Example: {{ node.body.value }}
result: <p>Batman &amp; Robin</p>
{{ content.field_name.0 }} to get the raw value minus tags and encoding.

Example: {{ content.body.0 }}
result: Batman & Robin

{% set parp_state = participating_state_1|render|striptags|trim|lower %}

keep leveraging Drupal's text filters like basic_html. So this way is more secure than rendering the plain text as html in twig.

In this example the field-name is 'field_myfield'. 
The text-formatter is 'basic_html'. 
But you could also use 'full_html' or any other available formatter. 
And it is a paragraph of type 'hero' is preprocessed.

In THEME.theme
/**
 * Implements TEMPLATE_preprocess_HOOK().
 */
function THEME_preprocess_paragraph__hero(&$variables) {
  $entity = $variables['paragraph'];

  $variables['content']['field_myfield'] = check_markup(
    $entity->get('field_myfield')->getValue()[0]['value'],
    'basic_html',
    $entity->language()->getId()
  );
}
And in Twig nothing has changed.

{{ content.field_myfield }}
