utemplate - Lightweight template engine for MicroPython

I worked on this project in deep background for a while, and finally found time to polish it a little bit and push to github/PyPI. The idea is to have lightweight, memory-efficient, unbloated template engine for MicroPython. Unbloated means there's no template interpreter - why to have it, if there's already interpreter in MicroPython, just need to convert template to Python source, voila. Memory-efficient means that partial chunk-by-chunk template rendering should be supported, so template is compiled into a generator function.
Quick start:
Code: Select all
git clone https://github.com/pfalcon/utemplate
cd utemplate/examples
micropython ../utemplate_util.py run squares.tpl
Example of template:
Code: Select all
{% args %}
{% for i in range(5) %}
| {{i}} | {{"%2d" % i ** 2}} |
{% endfor %}
Output:
Code: Select all
| 0 | 0 |
| 1 | 1 |
| 2 | 4 |
| 3 | 9 |
| 4 | 16 |

0.4 released on PyPI. Changes including dropping assumption of particular file extension for a template - any can be used now, which makes
picoweb more compatible with Flask web microframework.

Can the utemplate scripts be frozen into the ESP8266 build?
I have tried copying the compiled.py and source.py files into a sub-directory called utemplate in the \modules folder of the ESP8266 folder. But I am not sure that is the correct whey to install them.
I am definitely having issues running the examples that use the template rendering code.
Any ideas?
Thanks.

Of course they can be, see
viewtopic.php?f=16&t=2966&p=20150#p20150 .
And someone needs to tweak the stuff to make picoweb's examples, which originally intended to be run with unix port, to run on ports where there's no "external command line" too, see
https://github.com/pfalcon/picoweb/issues/15 and linked issues.

utemplate 1.3 was released:
https://pypi.org/project/utemplate/1.3/ .
It's mostly a documentation update, at least a quick, but syntax reference is now included, etc. The doc is now also rendered on PyPI.
