Intoduction

This project allows you to gnerate a file from a jinja2 template file

Installation

pip install template-formatter

Motivating example

Often you need to create a file or a string according to a specific template. When you need to perform it in python, it is all fine and dandy. However, the problem arises when you are dealing with a different programming language (e.g., C, Latex) that can perform said task, but in a much less easy way. You can use this program to easiluy template files and string and then use them inside another environment.

Usage

This executable allows to customize templated strings or file according some criterion. I have intended this application to be just a wrapper to jinja2. However, you can also pass a string to the program according to other template syntaxes (e.g., f-strings or python format).

See the tests for usages of this program. Here there is a non comprehensive ways to use this program

template-formatter --version

template-formatter --help

template-formatter --format="format" --writeOnStdout --value "foo" 3 --value "bar" 5 "{model.foo} + {model.bar}"
