What is PyAMS?

PyAMS (Pyramid Application Management Suite) is a small suite of packages written for applications and content management with the Pyramid framework.

PyAMS is actually mainly used to manage web sites through content management applications (CMS, see PyAMS_content package), but many features are generic and can be used inside any kind of web application.

All PyAMS documentation is available on ReadTheDocs; source code is available on Gitlab and pushed to Github.

What is PyAMS_template?

PyAMS is using Chameleon internally as HTML templates engine.

This package, which is essentially an adaptation of “z3c.template” package for Pyramid, allows to separate the definition of a view code from it’s rendering template; this template selection can actually be based on the view but also on the request layer (see “PyAMS_layer” package to get more information about layers).

PyAMS_template package provides a “template_config” decorator, which allows you to define a template for a given view, and a “layout_config” decorator, which allows to define a “layout” template; layout templates are particularly useful when using “pagelets”, which are defined into another package (see PyAMS_pagelet).

You can also override a template definition for a given view, without creating a new view class, just by using the “override_template” or “override_layout” functions.

View and layout templates can also be declared using ZCML instead of Python code, by using the <template /> and <layout /> directives.
