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.
