If you make any bug fixes or feature enhancements please let me know! As simple as it gets: 1 - Create a context 2 - Compile a template 3 - Expand the template Module Dependencies: simpleTAL, simpleTALES """ from simpletal import simpleTAL, simpleTALES import sys # Creat the context that is used by the template context = simpleTALES.Context(allowPythonPath=1) # Add a string to the context under the variable title context.addGlobal ("title", "Colours of the rainbow") # A list of strings colours = ["red", "orange", "yellow", "green", "blue", "indigo", "violet"] # Add the list to the context under the variable rainbow context.addGlobal ("rainbow", colours) # Open the template file templateFile = open ("basic.html", 'r') # Compile a template template = simpleTAL.compileHTMLTemplate (templateFile) # Close the template file templateFile.close() # Expand the template as HTML using this context template.expand (context, sys.stdout, outputEncoding="utf-8")
