EmPy is a system for embedding Python expressions and statements in template
|
||
|
|
text; it takes an EmPy source file, processes it, and produces output. This is
|
||
|
|
accomplished via expansions, which are special signals to the EmPy system and
|
||
|
|
are set off by a special prefix (by default the at sign, @). EmPy can expand
|
||
|
|
arbitrary Python expressions and statements in this way, as well as a variety
|
||
|
|
of special forms. Textual data not explicitly delimited in this way is sent
|
||
|
|
unaffected to the output, allowing Python to be used in effect as a markup
|
||
|
|
language. Also supported are callbacks via hooks, recording and playback via
|
||
|
|
diversions, and dynamic, chainable filters. The system is highly configurable
|
||
|
|
via command line options and embedded commands.
