mlx.json-to-mako 0.2

Convertor for JSON database(s) to MAKO templated outpu

JSON to MAKO generator

Python script that converts JSON database(s) to any templated output using MAKO templates.

Installing

pip3 install mlx.json_to_mako

Usage

The script takes multiple JSON input files, combines them in a python list, and renders the data through a provided template. No data-parsing functionality is provided by the script: the complexity of ‘interpreting’ the data is done in the MAKO templates.

Example

The usage is explained through an example in the example/ directory.

General use:

json-to-mako --input database.json --template rendering.mako --output rendered.html

Multiple input files

The –input flag can be provided multiple times in order to provide multiple JSON databases. This is explained by the example.

json-to-mako --input database1.json --input database2.json--template rendering.mako --output rendered.html

The multiple JSON databases are appended into a python list. Your MAKO-template needs to incorporate this by e.g. looping over the different databases. See example/ folder for details.
