webstring 0.5

Template engine that uses Python as the template language

webstring is a template engine for programmers whose favorite template language is Python. This release of webstring replaces the standalone packages webstring, lwebstring, TurboWebstring, and LturboWebstring.

webstring supports:

  • plain text templating
  • advanced XML and HTML templating using lxml or cElementTree
  • templating with web frameworks that support the TurboGears template plugin API
  • WSGI templating middleware

webstring is designed to:

  1. Separate model and view logic from controller logic.
  2. Separate template logic from template data.
  3. Require only Python for templating.
  4. Use Python syntax, idiom, and patterns.
  5. Play well with other Python software.

webstring's XML and HTML templating support is designed to:

  1. Use XML as a data format, not a programming language.
  2. Use existing XML formats.
  3. Hide the parts of an XML document that are not being used.
  4. Use the best Python XML processing libraries.
  5. Bridge HTML and XML.
