Pystache
========

Inspired by [ctemplate][1] and [et][2], Mustache is a
framework-agnostic way to render logic-free views.

As ctemplates says, "It emphasizes separating logic from presentation:
it is impossible to embed application logic in this template language."

Pystache is a Python implementation of Mustache. It has been tested
with Python 2.6.1.


Documentation
-------------

For now check out the [ctemplate][3] or [Mustache][4] docs.


Use It
------

    >>> import pystache
    >>> pystache.render('Hi {{person}}!', {'person': 'Mom'})
    'Hi Mom!'

You can also create dedicated view classes to hold your view logic.

Here's your simple.py:
    import pystache
    class Simple(pystache.View):
        def thing(self):
            return "pizza"

Then your template, simple.mustache:
    Hi {{thing}}!

Pull it together:
    >>> Simple().render()
    'Hi pizza!'


Test It
-------

[nose][n] works great!

    easy_install nose
    cd pystache
    nosetests


Author
------

    context = { 'author': 'Chris Wanstrath', 'email': 'chris@ozmm.org' }
    pystache.render("{{author}} :: {{email}}", context)
