This is great, thanks.
I want to deploy a content server on my Raspberry Pi, do I need to write a
separate file for the server/reactor that imports views.py and config.py?

Hello,
I'm writing a content server to run on my Raspberry Pi and I'll be using Jinja2 as the templating engine. I'm new to Twisted so I'm having a hard time imaging the examples for TwistedMatrix.com scale.
Are there any examples of a fully featured Twisted application that uses Jinja2 or any other templating engine like Mako?
Hi Jo,
You can return a string (e.g. a rendered jinja2 template) from the .render method of an IResource
http://twistedmatrix.com/documents/current/web/howto/using-twistedweb.html#a...
So when you see a string being returned from a Resource in the docs, you can consider substituting the particulars of the template engine you want to use.
Here's a very simple example of one approach using jinja2:
## myapp/config.py # # Define a jinja2 Environment somewhere # I specify a PackageLoader to look up templates from the templates folder in the myapp.web.static package from jinja2 import Environment, PackageLoader jinja = Environment(loader=PackageLoader('myapp.web.static', 'templates'))
---- ## myapp/web/views.py # from twisted.web.resource import Resource from myapp.config import jinja
class MyResource(Resource): isLeaf = True template_name = "example.html"
def render_GET(self, request): ctx = { 'content': "Templated content", 'extra_info': [1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6] } template = jinja.get_template(self.template_name)
return template.render(ctx)
