tomako 0.1.0.post1

Usage

The recommended approach is to pass template_loader configuration to Application class.

from tomako import MakoTemplateLoader

conf = {
    'template_loader': MakoTemplateLoader('/full/template/path')
}
app = Application(urls, **conf)

If you can’t for any reason modify the template_loader configuration or you want to use Mako as a template engine only on some handlers, you can overwrite RequestHandler.create_template_loader.

from tornado.web import RequestHandler
from tomako import MakoTemplateLoader

class MyHandler(RequestHandler):
    def create_template_loader(self, template_path):
        return MakoTemplateLoader(template_path)

Tornado UIModules

Tomako has basic support for Tornado’s UIModules. You must include a special namespace called tomako.template in your templates:

# Your python file
from tornado.web import UIModule

class MyModule(UIModule):
    def render(self, arg1, arg2):
        # do something with args here...
        return 'some string'

<!-- Your template -->
<%namespace name="tomako" module="tomako.template" />

<%tomako:ui uiclass="your.project.module.MyModule" arg1="value1" arg2="value2" />

Install

pip install tomako
