# Subjugate
Write your Django templates with Python!
* All built-in Django loaders work.
* All built-in filters work.
* Caching and autoreloading works.
The missing companion library for Django to use
[dominate](https://pypi.org/project/dominate/) to write templates.
## Installation
```bash
pip install subjugate
# Subjugate doesn't actually depend on Domainate but it's highly highly recommended.
pip install domainate
```
```python
INSTALLED_APPS = [
...,
"subjugate",
...
]
TEMPLATES = [
...,
{
"BACKEND": "subjugate.template.backends.subjugate.SubjugateTemplates",
"DIRS": [],
"APP_DIRS": True,
"OPTIONS": {"debug": False},
}
]
```
## Usage
Assuming you're using `APP_DIRS` create a file `yourapp/subjugate/yourapp/page.py`.
```python
from subjugate import SubjugateTemplate
from dominate import tags as t
class PageTemplate(SubjugateTemplate):
def render(self, title="Page", description="Cool stuff here", **kwargs):
document = dominate.document(title=title)
abs_url = self.request.build_absolute_uri()
with document.head:
t.meta(name="charset", content="UTF-8")
t.meta(name="viewport", content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1")
t.title(title)
t.script(
"""
document.documentElement.classList.remove('no-js');\
document.documentElement.classList.add('js');
""",
type="module",
)
t.base(href=f"{abs_url}")
t.link(rel="canonical", href=f"{abs_url}")
t.link(rel="author", href=f"{self.static('humans.txt')}")
t.link(rel="license", href=f"{self.url('copyright')}")
t.meta(name="description", cotent=description)
t.meta(property="og:title", content=title)
t.meta(property="og:locale", content="en_US")
t.meta(property="og:type", content="website")
t.meta(property="og:url", content=f"{abs_url}")
with document:
t.p("Hello World!")
return document
```
Then in `urls.py`
```python
urlpatterns = [
...,
path("page/", TemplateView.as_view(template_name="yourapp/page.py")),
]
```
## Template Reuse
```python
class BaseTemplate(SubjugateTemplate):
def render(self, title="Blah", **kwargs):
document = dominate.document(title=title)
with document.head:
t.title(title)
return document
class DerivedTemplate(SubjugateTemplate):
def render(self, **kwargs):
base = self.extend("yourapp/base.py", title="Title Works")
with base:
t.p("Hello from the derived template!")
return base
```
## Other Features
```python
class TemplateVars(SubjugateTemplate):
def render(self, **kwargs):
base = self.extend("yourapp/base.py", title="Title Works")
with base:
# Context Vars
t.p(self.vars.message)
# Page URLs
t.p(self.url('yourapp/copyright.py'))
# Static URLs
t.p(self.static('yourapp/humans.txt'))
# CSRF Tokens
t.p(self.csrf_token())
# Filters
t.p(self.filter("upper", "yes"))
# Lorem Ipsum
t.p(self.lorem_words(count=15))
t.p(self.lorem_paragraphs(count=3))
return base
```
## But I don't want to use Domainate
Cool cool, like I said this library doesn't actually require Domainate. Just
make sure that the thing your `render` function returns has a `__str__` method
that actually outputs the renderd HTML.
