textcompose 1.1.0

A Python library for building dynamic, structured text templates using a declarative, compose-based approach

TextCompose

TextCompose is a Python library for creating dynamic, structured text templates. Inspired by aiogram-dialog, it provides a flexible and intuitive interface for composing text.

---

✨ Features

• Flexible text composition from components
• Conditional rendering support (when)
• Grouping and repeating blocks
• Formatting via f-string and Jinja2
• Easily extensible with new components

🚀 Installation

You can install the library in two ways:

Using uv

If you are using the uv package manager, you can install it as follows:

uv add textcompose

Using pip

pip install textcompose

💻 Usage

Components Overview

General

• Template — main class for combining and rendering components

Elements

Element — abstract base class for all element components

• Text — outputs static text
• Format — dynamic formatting via f-string
• Jinja — rendering via Jinja2 templates

Containers

Container — abstract base class for all container components

• Group — groups child components with a separator
• List — repeats a template for a collection

Logic Components

Logic — abstract base class for all container components

• If — conditional rendering (if_, then_, else_)

---

All components support the when parameter — it controls the display of the component and accepts a condition (expression, function or magic_filter).

📝 Example

All usage examples can be found in the example folder.

from magic_filter import F

from textcompose import Template
from textcompose.containers import Group, List
from textcompose.elements import Format, Jinja, Text
from textcompose.logics import If

template = Template(
    Format("Hello, {name}!"),
    Format("Status: {status}"),  # or `lambda ctx: f"Status: {ctx['status']}"` with function
    If(
        F["notifications"] > 0,  # `if_` - condition to check if there are notifications
        Format("You have {notifications} new notifications."),  # `then_` - content to render if condition is True
        Format("You not have new notifications."),  # `else_` - content to render if condition is False
    ),
    Group(
        Jinja("\nTotal messages {{ messages|length }}:"),
        List(
            Format("Time - {item[time]}:"),
            Format("-  {item[text]}"),
            sep="\n",  # `sep` - separator between list items
            inner_sep="\n",  # `inner_sep` - separator between parts of a single item
            getter=lambda ctx: ctx["messages"],  # `getter` - function or F to extract the list of messages from context
        ),
        sep="\n",  # `sep` - separator between children of Group
        when=F["messages"].len() > 0,  # `when` - show this block only if there are messages
    ),
    Text("\nThank you for using our service!"),  # or "Recent messages:" without class
)

context = {
    "name": "Alexey",
    "status": "Online",
    "notifications": 2,
    "messages": [
        {"text": "Your package has been delivered.", "time": "09:15"},
        {"text": "Reminder: meeting tomorrow at 10:00.", "time": "18:42"},
    ],
}

print(template.render(context))

Output:

Hello, Alexey!
Status: Online
You have 2 new notifications.

Total messages 2:
Time - 09:15:
-  Your package has been delivered.
Time - 18:42:
-  Reminder: meeting tomorrow at 10:00.

Thank you for using our service!
