more.mako is an extension for Morepath that adds Mako
template support when you use the .mako extension.
Example usage:
from more.mako import MakoApp
class App(MakoApp):
pass
@App.path(path='persons/{name}')
class Person(object):
def __init__(self, name):
self.name = name
@App.template_directory()
def get_template_directory():
return 'templates'
@App.html(model=Person, template='person.mako')
def person_default(self, request):
return {'name': self.name}and then in person.mako in the templates subdirectory:
<html>
<body>
<p>Hello {{name}}!</p>
</body>
</html>You can also render defs from templates using the special syntax
template#defname.mako like the following example:
@App.html(model=Root, template='defs#hello.mako')
def hello():
return {'name': 'World'}and then in defs.mako:
<%def name="hello(name)">
<p>Hello ${name}!</p>
</%def>Note that the Mako documentation uses the .html extension for
Mako templates, whereas this extension uses .mako instead.
To control Mako behavior you can define a mako setting section
in your app, for instance:
@App.setting_section(section='mako')
def get_setting_section():
return {
'default_filters': ['h'],
'format_exceptions': True
}For details on Mako configuration options, consult the Mako API documentation.
