Slim templates syntax for Jinja2 templates

Project description

## [Slim](http://slim-lang.com/) templates syntax for Jinja2.


#### Installation

I will be uploading it to PyPi soon. By then, clone the repository. Examples of using it as `Jinja2
extension(jinja_demo.py)`,
with `Flask(flask_demo.py)` and standalone`(convert.py and demo.py)` are bundled.

If you want to use it for any other purpose, the `lexer - lexer.py` and `parser - parser.py` are simple enough.
`lexer` reads the input by lines and generates tokens. `parser` implements a hand rolled recursive descent parser.

For quick reference, this slim::

!5
html
head
/ Inline static content.
title
-block title
|Slimish-Jinja Example
/ Self closing tag with attributes.
meta name="keywords" content="template language"
script
/ Empty jinja tag.
@block script

/ 'id' and 'class' shortcut.
body#home.fluid.liquid
/ Nested static content.
h1
|This is my header.
/ 'div' with 'id' and 'class' shortcut.
#contents.main
/ Empty html tag.
%div
p Dynamic =content
p
|Nested dyanmic =content
Left indent is preserved in text blocks.
/ Mixing html is fine as well.
p
|<a href\="http://www.thoughtnirvana.com">ThoughtNirvana</a>
/ Dynamic attributes.
ul class="=user_class"
/ Jinja tag.
-for user in users
li =user.name
-if user.last_name
li =user.last_name
-elif user.middle_name
li =user.middle_name
-else
li No user found.


converts to::

<!doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>
{% block title %}
Slimish-Jinja Example
{% endblock %}
</title>
<meta content="template language" name="keywords"/>
<script>
{% block script %}{% endblock %}
</script>
</head>
<body id="home" class="fluid liquid">
<h1>
This is my header.
</h1>
<div id="contents" class="main">
<div></div>
<p>Dynamic {{ content }}</p>
<p>
Nested dyanmic {{ content }} Left indent is preserved in text blocks.
</p>
<p>
<a href="http://www.thoughtnirvana.com">ThoughtNirvana</a>
</p>
</div>
<ul class="{{ user_class }}">
{% for user in users %}
<li>{{ user.name }}</li>
{% if user.last_name %}
<li>{{ user.last_name }}</li>
{% elif user.middle_name %}
<li>{{ user.middle_name }}</li>
{% endif %}
{% else %}
<li>No user found.</li>
{% endfor %}
</ul>
</body>
</html>
