django-hyperscript 1.0.0

Custom Django template tags for integrating Hyperscript with Django templates.

Django Hyperscript

This package is intended to simplify the process of dumping data from Django into Hyperscript by providing two template tags with options for customizing the output.

---

Installation

1. Install using pip:

pip install django-hyperscript

2. Add django_hyperscript to INSTALLED_APPS in your Django project's settings.py:

# settings.py

INSTALLED_APPS = [
    ...,
    'django_hyperscript',
]

3. Load the tag library in the necessary templates:

{% load hyperscript %}

---

Usage

hs_dump

Dumps data into a single Hyperscript variable.

{% hs_dump data 'myData' %}

assuming data is {"foo": "bar"}, the tag would output

<div _="
init
    set global myData to {'foo': 'bar'} 
    then remove me 
end"></div>

hs_expand

Expands a dictionary into Hyperscript variables.

{% hs_expand data %}

assuming data is {"foo": "bar", "baz": "qux"}, the tag would output

<div _="
init 
    set global foo to bar 
    set global baz to qux 
    then remove me
end"></div>

---

Configuration

Both hs_dump and hs_expand have a set of additional keyword arguments to configure their behavior.

show

Type: bool | Default: False

Removes Hyperscript from the DOM after initializing if True.

translate

Type: bool | Default: True

"Translates" dictionary keys from snake case (snake_case) to camel case (camelCase) to fit JavaScript naming conventions.

scope

Type: str | Default: global

Determines the scope of the Hyperscript variable (global, element, or local).

wrap

Type: bool | Default: True

Wraps the Hyperscript in a <div> if True, otherwise returns the raw Hyperscript text.

Note: If both wrap and show are False, the element will not be removed and the Hyperscript attribute and value will be removed from the element.

Final example

{% hs_dump data 'my_data' show=True translate=False scope='element' wrap=False %}

assuming data is {"my_value": 25}, the tag would output

"init set element my_data to {'my_value': 25} end"

In this example:

• The Hyperscript remains in the DOM since show is True
• The keys within the dumped data remain in snake case since translate is False
• The variable is scoped to the element the Hyperscript belongs to since scope is set to 'element'
• The output is just the raw Hyperscript text since wrap is set to False
