htmlobj
Project description
htmlobj
htmlobj allows you to easily create complex HTML (or XML, xHTML) using nothing but Python code. It is an alternative to using templates in web frameworks, which usually have their own language syntax.
Example:
from htmlobj import HTML
h = HTML("html")
h.head.title("My Page") # can chain tags if only 1 subitem
with h.body: # use `with` for multiple subitems
h.p.u("Paragraph 1 underlined")
with h.p("Paragraph 2 ", class_="p2"): # add attributes too
h.b("bold")
h.text(", not bold") # add additional text
print(h)
Which outputs:
<html>
<head>
<title>My Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<p><u>Paragraph 1 underlined</u></p>
<p class="p2">Paragraph 2 <b>bold</b>, not bold</p>
</body>
</html>
Note that the class_ attribute has a trailing underscore because class is a Python keyword.
New Features
htmlobj is a re-packaging of html3, with further Python 3 modernization and additional functionality added.
One added feature is creating an htmlobj.HTML instance from existing html, either as a string (HTML.from_html), or from a url (HTML.from_url):
h = HTML.from_url("https://example.com/")
This will often be used in combination with another new feature, HTML.codify, to generate Python code using htmlobj, for you. Start with a page that is similar to what you want to create, then modify as needed, e.g. to programatically fill in data for that page.
print(h.codify())
which gives output like:
h = HTML()
with h.html:
with h.head:
h.title("Example Domain")
h.meta(charset="utf-8")
h.meta(http-equiv="Content-type", content="text/html; charset=utf-8")
...
You can then copy this output as a starting point for you own code, to make a webpage similar to the one passed to from_url.
Note: you can also achieve a from_url / codify combination from the command line by running htmlobj.html_parser with python -m:
python -m htmlobj.html_parser https://example.com > my_code.py
