Simple template engine for python
Project description
Lighty-template
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Lighty-template is very simple template engine for python (python.org).
Template syntax looks like django-template or jinja2 template. But template
engine code is easier and gives a way to write all needed tags without any
hacks.
Now it does not include all features django-template or jinja2 supports, but
I'll try to fix it as soon as possible.
Features:
---------
- Stupid simple syntax almost compatible with django-template.
- Pure python.
- Supports both Python 2 (checked with 2.7.2) and Python 3 (checked with 3.2.2)
- Fast. From 3 to 10 times faster than django-template and even faster on some
benchmarks than jinja2 (but in one benchmark 2 times slower).
- Simple and compact code.
- Template filters with multiply arguments.
- Basic template filters included (now just 14 template filters).
- Basic template tags included.
- Simple but powerfull tag declaration - it's easy to create your own block
tags with writing single function.
- Custom template tags can modify template on fly.
Example:
--------
Here a small template example:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>{{ title }}</title>
{% block style %}{% endblock %}
{% block script %}{% endblock %}
</head>
<body>
{% block content %}
<h1>Hello, {{ name }}!</h1>
<p>Some text here</p>
{% endblock %}
{% include "includes/footer.html" %}
</body>
</html>
TODO:
-----
- More default tags (now there is no load tags, and if and for tags was
simplified and requires additional work).
- More default filters (strings saving, etc.)
- Some additional execution optimizations.
- More tests (in progress).
- Documentation.
- Thinking about unicode and escaping.
