r"""Lets you manipulate XML/XHTML using a Pythonic object model. `PyMeldLite`
is a single Python module, _PyMeldLite.py_. It works with all versions of
Python from 2.2 upwards. It is a restricted version of PyMeld (see
http://www.entrian.com/PyMeld) - PyMeldLite supports only well-formed XML
with no namespaces, whereas PyMeld supports virtually all XML or HTML
documents. PyMeldLite is released under the PSF license whereas PyMeld is
released under the Sleepycat License. PyMeld and PyMeldLite support the
same API.
*Features:*
o Allows program logic and HTML to be completely separated - a graphical
designer can design the HTML in a visual XHTML editor, without needing to
deal with any non-standard syntax or non-standard attribute names. The
program code knows nothing about XML or HTML - it just deals with objects
and attributes like any other piece of Python code.
o Designed with common HTML-application programming tasks in mind.
Populating an HTML form with a record from a database is a one-liner
(using the `%` operator - see below). Building an HTML table from a set
of records is just as easy, as shown in the example below.
o Does nothing but maniplating HTML/XML, hence fits in with any other Web
toolkits you're using.
o Tracebacks always point to the right place - many Python/HTML mixing
systems use exec or eval, making bugs hard to track down.
*Quick overview*
A `PyMeldLite.Meld` object represents an XML document, or a piece of one.
All the elements in a document with `id=name` attributes are made available
by a Meld object as `object.name`. The attributes of elements are available
in the same way. A brief example is worth a thousand words:
>>> from PyMeldLite import Meld
>>> xhtml = '''
...
... '''
>>> page = Meld(xhtml) # Create a Meld object from XHTML.
>>> print page.message # Access an element within the document.
>>> print page.message.rows # Access an attribute of an element.
2
>>> page.message = "New message." # Change the content of an element.
>>> page.message.rows = 4 # Change an attribute value.
>>> del page.message.wrap # Delete an attribute.
>>> print page # Print the resulting page.
So the program logic and the HTML are completely separated - a graphical
designer can design the HTML in a visual XHTML editor, without needing to
deal with any non-standard syntax or non-standard attribute names. The
program code knows nothing about XML or HTML - it just deals with objects and
attributes like any other piece of Python code. Populating an HTML form with
a record from a database is a one-liner (using the `%` operator - see below).
Building an HTML table from a set of records is just as easy, as shown in the
example below:
*Real-world example:*
Here's a data-driven example populating a table from a data source, basing the
table on sample data put in by the page designer. Note that in the real world
the HTML would normally be a larger page read from an external file, keeping
the data and presentation separate, and the data would come from an external
source like an RDBMS. The HTML could be full of styles, images, anything you
like and it would all work just the same.
>>> xhtml = '''
...
... | Example name | 21 |
...
... '''
>>> doc = Meld(xhtml)
>>> templateRow = doc.row.clone() # Take a copy of the template row, then
>>> del doc.row # delete it to make way for the real rows.
>>> for name, age in [("Richie", 30), ("Dave", 39), ("John", 78)]:
... newRow = templateRow.clone()
... newRow.name = name
... newRow.age = age
... doc.people += newRow
>>> print re.sub(r'\s*', '\n', str(doc)) # Prettify the output
Note that if you were going to subsequently manipulate the table, using
PyMeldLite or JavaScript for instance, you'd need to rename each `row`,
`name` and `age` element to have a unique name - you can do that by assigning
to the `id` attribute but I've skipped that to make the example simpler.
As the example shows, the `+=` operator appends content to an element -
appending ``s to a `` in this case.
*Shortcut: the % operator*
Using the `object.id = value` syntax for every operation can get tedious, so
there are shortcuts you can take using the `%` operator. This works just like
the built-in `%` operator for strings. The example above could have been
written like this:
>>> for name, age in [("Richie", 30), ("Dave", 39), ("John", 78)]:
... doc.people += templateRow % (name, age)
The `%` operator, given a single value or a sequence, assigns values to
elements with `id`s in the order that they appear, just like the `%` operator
for strings. Note that there's no need to call `clone()` when you're using
`%`, as it automatically returns a modified clone (again, just like `%` does
for strings). You can also use a dictionary:
>>> print templateRow % {'name': 'Frances', 'age': 39}
| Frances | 39 |
That's really useful when you have a large number of data items - for
example, populating an HTML form with a record from an RDBMS becomes a
one-liner.
*Element content*
When you refer to a named element in a document, you get a Meld object
representing that whole element:
>>> page = Meld('Hello world')
>>> print page.x
Hello world
If you just want to get the content of the element as string, use the
`_content` attribute:
>>> print page.x._content
Hello world
You can also assign to `_content`, though that's directly equivalent to
assigning to the tag itself:
>>> page.x._content = "Hello again"
>>> print page
Hello again
>>> page.x = "Goodbye"
>>> print page
Goodbye
The only time that you need to assign to `_content` is when you've taken a
reference to an element within a document:
>>> x = page.x
>>> x._content = "I'm back"
>>> print page
I'm back
Saying `x = "I'm back"` would simply re-bind `x` to the string `"I'm back"`
without affecting the document.
*Non-self-closing tags*
Some web browsers don't cope with self-closing tags (eg. ``) in XHTML.
For instance, some versions of Internet Explorer don't understand
`` to be the equivalent of ``, and interpret
the rest of the document as the content of the `textarea`. For this reason,
PyMeldLite has a module-level attribute called `nonSelfClose`, which is a
dictionary whose keys are the names of the tags that shouldn't be
self-closing. `textarea` is the only such tag by default.
>>> page = Meld('''''')
>>> print page
