Project description

Django Text Chunks

Insert blocks of text anywhere in in your template

Installation

Install package using pip

$ pip install django-textchunks

Basic usage

Add the textchunks application to INSTALLED_APPS in your settings file (usually settings.py)

INSTALLED_APPS = (
    ...
    'textchunks',
    ...
)

Sync database with ./manage.py migrate. After that, add textchunks using django admin interface and use them on your templates:

{% load textchunks %}

<html>
  <head>
    <title>Test</title>
    {% textchunk "google_analytics" %}
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1>Blah blah blah</h1>
    <div id="sidebar">
        ...
    </div>
    <div id="left">
        {% textchunk "home_page_left" %}
    </div>
    <div id="right">
        {% textchunk "home_page_right" %}
    </div>
  </body>
</html>

Advanced usage

There are two template tags available: textchunk and textchunk_plain. Text displayed with textchunk is not escaped, any html and javascript is rendered or executed. textchunk_plain tag uses from django.utils.html.escape to escape it’s content, so it’s safe to render user-entered text.

textchunk tag uses django Template object to render data and has access to template context. So, text

<span>{{ request.user.username }}</span>

for user with username as agentsmith will be rendered as

<span>agentsmith</span>
