A small, elegant templating system for Python.

Features

• Simple, well-tested and well-documented.

• Integrates tightly with Python - pass arbitrary Python objects into a template, walk sequences and iterators, evaluate expressions.

• Default escaping helps to prevent common classes of Cross-Site Scripting vulnerabilities.

• Encourages separation of interface and program logic by disallowing statements in templates.

• Tiny - only ~ 170 SLOC. There are many large, over-designed Python templating systems out there. Cubictemp proves that a templating sytem can be complete, elegant, powerful, fast and remain compact.

Cubictemp requires Python 2.4 or newer.

Hello walrus

import cubictemp

template = cubictemp.Template("Hello @!foo!@!", foo="walrus")
print template
print template(foo="world")

Output:

Hello walrus!
Hello world!
