Getting values on twig node template

Question

I have installed ECK module in my website. Using it I have created a "report eck" entity in which I have different bundles like section, notes, etc., each containing different fields. I have my content type "Report" in which I have referred "report eck" entity using entity reference field. Now, in my nice template, I need to get various values including the bundle type, in which I am facing lots of trouble. My bundle type is coming up as following when I am doing kint() on my reference field, but I am not able to get this bundle type and many other values, please guide.

Also, it seems to be a protected values, so I navigated to "Available Methods" tabs and found method 'getEntityKey()' which seems to be useful, but how can I use it in twig template??

Answer 1

These are protected. You need to use any available getters to access them. Example, for nodes, the method is getType(). $node->getType(). Most generic entities should have a bundle() method that returns type.

Examples:

$bundle = $myEntity->bundle();

$variables['bundle'] = $bundle;

Twig: {{ bundle }}

Answer 2

I will go for render option and use the template instead of manually accessing values. Alternatively, you can go for custom twig functions or filters to access referenced field values.
