Features
--------

Link to static pages
====================

Static pages in **yasp** are automatic routed to a slug that you specify when
creating your page. Your static pages can be grouped in a `Menu`_ object. So
your urls can be in the form `menu-slug/page-slug` or `page-slug` (pages
without a relation to `Menu`_.

To create a link to static pages, there are some useful templatetags, as follows.

.. note::

All menus/pages that are used in a templatetag will be automatically
created if they don't exist.


To load all pages inside a menu:

.. code-block:: django

{% load yasp %}

{% get_pages_from_menu 'about-us' as pages %}

<ul>
{% for page in pages %}
<li><a href="{{page.get_absolute_url}}">{{page.title}}</a></li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>


To get a specific page:

.. code-block:: django

{% load yasp %}

{% get_page 'about-us/vision' as page %} {# Page 'vision' related to a menu 'about-us' #}
<a href="{{page.get_absolute_url}}">{{page.title}}</a>

{% get_page 'contact' as page %} {# Page without a menu. #}
<a href="{{page.get_absolute_url}}">{{page.title}}</a>

To get a URL to a specific page:

.. code-block:: django

{% load yasp %}

<a href="{% get_page_url 'about-us/vision' %}">Our vision</a>


Custom templates
================

Static pages will be rendered using the `yasp/default.html` template by
default.

You can customize the template used to render a page by placing a template with
the same slug of the page, or directly on the `template` field on Admin.

Template path resolution order:

* The "Template" field of your page, if provided.
* 'yasp/{menu_slug}/{page_slug}.html'
* 'yasp/{}.html'.format(page_slug)
* 'yasp/default.html'


Context of a static page template:

:menu: The `Menu`_ object.
:content: The `FlatPage`_ object.
:object: Alias to `content`.


External link
=============

You can use a static page instance to link to an external page.

Example:

>>> from yasp.models import Menu, FlatPage
>>> menu = Menu.objects.create(name='About us', slug='about-us')
>>> page = FlatPage.objects.create(menu=menu, slug='google', link='http://google.com', title='Google')
>>> '<a href="{}">{}</a>'.format(page.get_absolute_url(), page.title)
'<a href="http://google.com">Google Inc.</a>'
>>> vision = FlatPage.objects.create(menu=menu, slug='vision', title='Vision')
>>> '<a href="{}">{}</a>'.format(vision.get_absolute_url(), vision.title)
'<a href="/about-us/vision">Vision</a>'

This construction is can be specially useful when you're build a navbar in
templates:

.. code-block:: django

{% load yasp %}
{% get_pages_from_menu 'about-us' as pages %}

<ul>
{% for page in pages %}
<li><a href="{{page.get_absolute_url}}">{{page.title}}</a></li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>


Will render as:

.. code-block:: html

<ul>
<li><a href="http://google.com">Google</a></li>
<li><a href="/about-us/vision">Vision</a></li>
</ul>
