Nutshell

Here a small example of a Quik template

<ul>
    #for @user in @users:
        #if @user.age > 18:
        <li><a href="@user.url">@user.username</a></li>
        #end
    #end
</ul>

Use It

Render via template:

from quik import FileLoader

loader = FileLoader('html')
template = loader.load_template('index.html')
print template.render({'author': 'Thiago Avelino'},
                      loader=loader).encode('utf-8')

Render via string:

from quik import Template

temp = Template("""
<ul>
    #for @user in @users:
        #if @user.age > 18:
        <li><a href="@user.url">@user.username</a></li>
        #end
    #end
</ul>
""")

users = [
    {'username': 'foo', 'url': 'http://...', 'age': 25},
    {'username': 'bar', 'url': 'https://...', 'age': 18}]

print temp.render(locals())

quik's Issues

if statement is not working in template

if i got template like:

if @session.user_id == @user.id:

@user.name

# end

it gets rendered as:

if 3 == 3:

John Doe

without evaluating the condition

update:
now I see that condition works with different syntax

if(condition)

...

end

it is ok now

create filter (template tag) engine

Change IF syntax

Now:

if()
end

New:

if:
end

cache on render template html

New syntax to methods

example

#for @foo in @bar:
    <strong>@foo</strong>
#end

#if @foo > 10:
    <strong>Ok
#end

Removed () and add : end line.

replace tokens containg dot defined in property files

Hi there,
I tried t use this library to replace tokens from one xml file that are defined in a property file.
My case is:
in myprops.properties contains following keys:
application.server.host=192.168.101.105
application.server.port=8888

So in xml that I need to change, I will have

But this is not working
If the properties are changed to:
applicationServerHost=192.168.101.105
applicationServerPort=8888

and the xml to:

it's working without problem

Can this kind of token be covered by a fix?
Thank you in advance.

create block engine

create macros engine

mathematical operation

does quik support mathematical operation??
for example, is there any way to write this: @var1*@var2

example not working

The example from the main page isn't working - not sure if i'm doing something wrong.

from quik import Template

temp = Template("""

#for @user in @users: #if @user.age > 18:
• @user.username
#end #end

""")

users = [
{'username': 'foo', 'url': 'http://...', 'age': 25},
{'username': 'bar', 'url': 'https://...', 'age': 18}]

print temp.render(locals())
