EMPY

NAME

empy − A powerful and robust templating system for Python

SYNOPSIS

empy [options] [<filename, or ’-’ for stdin> [<argument>]]

DESCRIPTION

This manual page documents briefly the empy command.

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.

OPTIONS

These programs follow the usual GNU command line syntax, with long options starting with two dashes (‘-’). A summary of options is included below. For a complete description, see the Info files.
