        Template

Known Subclasses:

Abstract template base class.

This class implements most of the template processing model, but does not specify the syntax of templates.

Nested Classes
	__metaclass__ Meta class for templates.

Instance Methods

__init__(self, source, filepath=None, filename=None, loader=None, encoding=None, lookup='strict', allow_exec=True)
Initialize a template from either a string, a file-like object, or an already parsed markup stream.

__getstate__(self)

__setstate__(self, state)

__repr__(self)
repr(x)

generate(self, *args, **kwargs)
Apply the template to the given context data.

Inherited from object: __delattr__, __getattribute__, __hash__, __new__, __reduce__, __reduce_ex__, __setattr__, __str__

Class Variables
	EXEC = `'EXEC'` Stream event kind representing a Python code suite to execute.
	EXPR = `'EXPR'` Stream event kind representing a Python expression.
	INCLUDE = `'INCLUDE'` Stream event kind representing the inclusion of another template.
	SUB = `'SUB'` Stream event kind representing a nested stream to which one or more directives should be applied.
	serializer = `None`

Properties
Inherited from `object`: `__class__`

Method Details

init(self, source, filepath=None, filename=None, loader=None, encoding=None, lookup=`'strict'`, allow_exec=True)
(Constructor)

Initialize a template from either a string, a file-like object, or an already parsed markup stream.

Parameters:

source - a string, file-like object, or markup stream to read the template from
filepath - the absolute path to the template file
filename - the path to the template file relative to the search path
loader - the TemplateLoader to use for loading included templates
encoding - the encoding of the source
lookup - the variable lookup mechanism; either "strict" (the default), "lenient", or a custom lookup class
allow_exec - whether Python code blocks in templates should be allowed

Overrides: object.__init__

Note: Changed in 0.5: Added the allow_exec argument

repr(self)
(Representation operator)

repr(x)

Overrides: object.__repr__: (inherited documentation)

generate(self, *args, **kwargs)

Apply the template to the given context data.

Any keyword arguments are made available to the template as context data.

Only one positional argument is accepted: if it is provided, it must be an instance of the Context class, and keyword arguments are ignored. This calling style is used for internal processing.

Returns:: a markup event stream representing the result of applying the template to the context data.
