Easily embed Handlebars.js templates in your django templates
Project description
django-templatetag-handlebars allows you to embed Handlebars.js templates in your django templates.
Most of the template tag code comes from Miguel Araujo’s verbatim snippet.
INSTALL
pip install django-templatetag-handlebars
USAGE
Add templatetag_handlebars to your INSTALLED_APPS
Add the HTML header :
{% load templatetag_handlebars %}
<head>
{% handlebars_js %}
...
</head>
Call the template tag, and write your Handlebars template :
{% tplhandlebars "tpl-infos" %}
{{total}} {% trans "result(s)." %}
<p>{% trans "Min" %}: {{min}}</p>
<p>{% trans "Max" %}: {{max}}</p>
{% endtplhandlebars %}
The following block with end-up in your page :
<script type="text/x-handlebars" id="tpl-infos">
{{total}} result(s).
<p>Min: {{min}}</p>
<p>Max: {{max}}</p>
<script>
Render it, client-side, as usual using Handlebars.js API :
var properties = {
total: 10,
min: 4,
max: 5
};
var template = Handlebars.compile($('#tpl-infos').html()),
rendered = template(properties);
Your rendered string is ready, and waiting to be inserted in your DOM :)
10 result(s). <p>Min: 4</p> <p>Max: 5</p>
Advanced
A {% verbatim %} tag is available to escape a specific part. For example, you may want a subpart of your Handlebars template to be rendered by Django :
<script type="text/x-handlebars" id="tpl-django-form">
<form>
{% verbatim %}
{{#if id}}<h1>{{first}} {{last}}</h1>{{/if}}
{% trans "Your id is" %} {{ id }}
{% endverbatim %}
{{ yourform.as_p }}
</form>
</script>
Using Ember.js
In settings.py ensure to set the following attribute to True. This is due to Ember.js expecting a slightly different script id declaration
USE_EMBER_STYLE_ATTRS = True
The script block will be rendered like `<script type="text/x-handlebars" data-template-name="%s">`.
