Suppose your boss told you to choose a Python web application framework, and you would be wedded to it for at least the next 3 years. What would you recommend? Ground rules: Python: Yes, required. (Ruby+ not an option for reasons irrelevant. Case closed.) Custom/Hybrid Setups: Sure... if they are defensible on technical grounds. Up...
I recently discovered the genshi.builder module. It reminds me of Divmod Nevow's Stan module. How would one use genshi.builder.tag to build an HTML document with a particular doctype? Or is this even a good thing to do? If not, what is the right way? ...
A Genshi template raises the following error: TemplateSyntaxError: invalid syntax in expression "${item.error}" of "choose" directive The part of the template code that the error specifies is the following ('feed' is a list of dictionary which is passed to the template): <item py:for="item in feed"> <py:choose error="${item.error}...
I'm working on a plugin for Trac and am inserting some javascript into the rendered HTML by manipulating the Genshi stream. I need to test if a javascript function is already in the HTML and if it is then overwrite it with a new version, if it isn't then add it to the HTML. How do I perform a search to see if the function is already th...
<py:match path="foo"> <?python import os href = select('@href').render() SOMEWHERE = ... # what file contained the foo tag? path = os.path.abspath(os.path.join(os.path.dirname(SOMEWHERE), href) f = file(path,'r') # (do something interesting with f) ?> </py:match> ... <foo href="../...
We use hosted Trac. It uses Genshi templates. I think we can submit our own site.html. We want to get rid of Trac standard footer. What is the most elegant way of doing that? I suspect that the answer is in some nice Genshi trick. I don't know Genshi nor Trac's additions to it. I tried couple of things on a hunch, none worked. I tried...
Quite simply I'd like to print out all variables that are in scope in my genshi template, as a debugging and discovery measure. Is there a way to do it? ...
Hello everyone, I am using the TW for recaptcha, integrated everything as shown in the examples. When sending the ReCaptcha to my template, my whole page output just cuts off.

I'm trying to output the content of a comment with genshi, but I can't figure out how to transform the newlines into HTML paragraphs. Here's a test case of what it should look like: input: 'foo\n\n\n\n\nbar\nbaz' output: <p>foo</p><p>bar</p><p>baz</p> I've looked everywhere for this function. I couldn't find it in genshi or in python...
I've been considering a templating solution, although my choices are between Mako and Genshi. I find templating in Genshi a bit ugly, so I'm shifting more towards Mako. I've gone to wonder: what is so good about the fact that Mako allows embedded Python code? How is it convenient for the average joe? Wouldn't templating JUST suffice wi...

Genshi replaces these with their UTF-8 character, which cau...

I'm trying to do some customization of a Trac project management website and have run into an interesting problem. The project has a set of images that are both SVG and PNG. The SVG images have numerous advantages including multiple hyperlinks and a smaller transmitted size against PNG which is bigger and can only link to a single docu...

I can alter the order of entries in the project's conf file but I will still end up in the Wiki when entering.
