Simple HTML generation
Project description
Simple HTML generation
Installation
Install the minihtml package from PyPI:
$ pip install minihtml
Examples
Create a minihtml.Html instance to produce tags. Tags stringify to HTML:
>>> from minihtml import Html
>>> h = Html()
>>> html = h.html(h.head(h.title("Hello, World!")))
>>> print(html)
<html><head><title>Hello, World!</title></head></html>
Tags are callables that accept positional arguments (children) and keyword arguments (attributes). Calls can be chained to produce code that is structured more like HTML (attributes before content):
>>> print(h.a("link title", href="/url"))
<a href="/url">link title</a>
>>> print(h.a(href="/url")("link title"))
<a href="/url">link title</a>
There are shortcuts for setting the class and id attributes using [] accessors:
>>> print(h.div["#header bg-white"](h.span["text-xl font-medium"]("hello")))
<div id="header" class="bg-white"><span class="text-xl font-medium">hello</span></div>
Text content, attribute names and attribute values are escaped automatically.
To include unescaped content, use the raw element. Only use this with
trusted input:
>>> print(h.div(foo='"bar"')("2 > 1"))
<div foo=""bar"">2 > 1</div>
>>> print(h.script(h.raw('if (2 > 1) console.log("math still works");')))
<script>if (2 > 1) console.log("math still works");</script>
To use tag or attribute names that conflict with python keywords, append an underscore. Underscores within attribute names are converted to hyphens ("-", except for a single underscore, which is passed through unchanged).
>>> print(h.del_("deleted text"))
<del>deleted text</del>
>>> print(h.label(for_="fieldname")("text"))
<label for="fieldname">text</label>
>>> print(h.span(data_foo="bar"))
<span data-foo="bar"></span>
>>> print(h.span(_="something"))
<span _="something"></span>
Attributes that have no value can be set by passing the value True:
>>> print(h.input(type="text", disabled=True))
<input type="text" disabled />
Use minihtml.tostring to convert a tag to a string and add a doctype:
>>> from minihtml import tostring
>>> html = h.html(h.body("my website"))
>>> tostring(html)
'<!doctype html>\n<html><body>my website</body></html>\n'
