This section gives a quick overview of Cubictemp, centered around a very simple example.
The simplest function of a templating system is basic substitution - that is, taking one piece of text, and inserting it into another. Consider the following line:
Hello @!foo!@.
This line is a complete Cubictemp template. It contains the single
substitution tag -
@!foo!@
- which we can use to insert the word "walrus" at the appropriate spot like
this:
import cubictemp template = "Hello @!foo!@." temp = cubictemp.Temp(template, foo="walrus") print temp
When we run the snippet of code above, the following output is produced:
Hello walrus.
That's it - the example above is perhaps the simplest possible Cubictemp example.
