Hyperfast and lightweight templating for the Python platform. Home | Community | Documentation | Download Mako Templates for PythonMako is a template library written in Python. It provides afamiliar, non-XML syntax which compiles into Python modules formaximum performance. Mako's syntax and API borrows from the bestideas of many others, including Django and Jinja2 templates, Cheetah,Myghty, and Genshi. Conceptually, Mako is an embedded Python(i.e. Python Server Page) language, which refines the familiarideas of componentized layout and inheritance to produce one ofthe most straightforward and flexible models available, whilealso maintaining close ties to Python calling and scopingsemantics.Mako is used by reddit.com where it delivers over one billion page views per month.It is the default templatelanguage included with the Pylons and Pyramid web frameworks.Nutshell: % for row in rows: ${makerow(row)} % endfor % for name in row: ${name}\ % endfor Philosophy:Python is a great scripting language. Don't reinvent the wheel...your templates can handle it !Features: Super-simple API. For basic usage, just one class, Template is needed: from mako.template import Templateprint(Template("hello ${data}!").render(data="world")) For filesystem management and template caching, add the TemplateLookup class. Super fast. As templates are ultimately compiled into Python bytecode, Mako's approach is extremely efficient, and was originally written to be just as fast as Cheetah. Today, Mako is very close in speed to Jinja2, which uses a similar approach and for which Mako was an inspiration. Standard template features control structures constructed from real Python code (i.e. loops, conditionals) straight Python blocks, inline or at the module-level plain old includes Callable blocks two types - the tag provides Python def semantics, whereas the tag behaves more like a Jinja2 content block. can access variables from their enclosing scope as well as the template's request context can be nested arbitrarily can specify regular Python argument signatures outer-level callable blocks can be called by other templates or controller code (i.e. "method call") Calls to functions can define any number of sub-blocks of content which are accessible to the called function This is the basis for nestable custom tags. Inheritance supports "multi-zoned" inheritance - define any number of areas in the base template to be overridden using or . supports "chaining" style inheritance - call next.body() to call the "inner" content. the full inheritance hierarchy is navigable in both directions (i.e. parent and child) from anywhere in the chain. inheritance is dynamic! Specify a function instead of a filename to calculate inheritance on the fly for every request. Full-Featured filters, such as URL escaping, HTML escaping. Markupsafe is used for performant and secure HTML escaping, and new filters can be constructed as a plain Python callable. complete caching system, allowing caching to be applied at the page level or individual block/def level. The caching system includes an open API that communicates with dogpile.cache by default. New cache backends can be added with ease via setuptools entrypoints. Supports Python 2.7 and Python 3.5 and above. Supports Google App Engine.
