    Disabling the render method

    $kirby->render() can be disabled temporarily by setting

    $_ENV['KIRBY_RENDER'] = false;

    This needs to be set before $kirby->render() is called.

    As an example, this is used by the Kirby CLI to load the index.php without getting any output. This way, the CLI can access the correct $kirby instance with all custom roots and options.

    If one of your independent PHP scripts need access to the $kirby instance in a similar way, you can require the index.php like this …

    /example.php
    <?php

$_ENV['KIRBY_RENDER'] = false;

// Kirby will not render anything
require __DIR__ . '/index.php';

// You get full access to the $kirby object
// with all custom settings
dump($kirby);
