An easy way to create custom template tags for Django's templating system.

Project description

django-meio-easytags

An easy way to create custom template tags for Django’s templating system.

Usage

Just subclass the EasyNode and create the method render_context and register the template tag:

from django.template import Library
from easytags.node import EasyNode

register = Library()

class SumNode(EasyNode):

    def render_context(self, context, arg1, arg2, arg3=0):
        return int(arg1) + int(arg2) + int(arg3)

register.tag('sum', SumNode.parse)

EasyNode will take care of the template tag’s parsing, resolving variable and inspecting if the args are ok with the render_context signature. In the example above, you can use the sum tag in any of the forms below:

{% sum "1" "2" %}
{% sum "1" arg2="2" %}
{% sum arg1="1" arg2="2" %}
{% sum arg2="2" arg1="1" %}

It’s almost like calling methods in Python.

In this example, arg3 is optional and defaults to 0. So you may use or not this arg.
