NOTE: django-mustachejs is now named "django-jstemplate"!
The source is available at http://github.com/mjumbewu/django-jstemplate, and the package is at http://pypi.python.org/pypi/django-jstemplate/. Please update your references.
Migration is easy:
- In your settings'
INSTALLED_APPS,mustachejsbecomesjstemplate MUSTACHEJS_...settings becomeJSTEMPLATE_...- In your Django templates,
{% load mustachejs %}becomes{% load jstemplate %}
That's it. If you have any issues, get in touch with me on GitHub or on Twitter @mjumbewu. Thanks for using the project!
django-mustachejs
A templatetag framework for easier integration of mustache.js JavaScript templates with Django templates. Inspired by ICanHaz.js, django-icanhaz, and jquery.mustache.
NOTE: Though django-mustachejs was originally developed for mustache-style
templates, it can actually be used to embed any type of client-side templates. It might
be better named django-jstemplates or something like that.
Quick Usage
(Read the full docs on Read the Docs)
Add "mustachejs" to your INSTALLED_APPS setting.
app/jstemplates/main.mustache:
<div>
<p>This is {{ name }}'s template</p>
</div>
app/templates/main.html:
{% load mustachejs %}
<html>
<head>
<script src="https://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.7.1/jquery.js"></script>
<script src="{{ STATIC_URL }}mustache/js/mustache-0.3.0.js"></script>
<script src="{{ STATIC_URL }}mustache/js/django.mustache.js"></script>
</head>
<body>
<div id="dynamic-area"></div>
{% mustachejs "main" %}
<script>
$(document).ready(function() {
var $area = $('#dynamic-area')
, template;
template = Mustache.template('main');
$area.html(template.render());
});
</script>
</body>
</html>
Rationale (from django-icanhaz)
The collision between Django templates' use of {{ and }} as template
variable markers and mustache.js' use of same has spawned a variety of
solutions. One solution simply replaces [[ and ]] with {{ and
}} inside an mustachejs template tag; another makes a valiant attempt
to reconstruct verbatim text within a chunk of a Django template after it has
already been mangled by the Django template tokenizer.
I prefer to keep my JavaScript templates in separate files in a dedicated directory anyway, to avoid confusion between server-side and client-side templating. So my contribution to the array of solutions is essentially just an "include" tag that avoids parsing the included file as a Django template (and for convenience, automatically wraps it in the script tag that ICanHaz.js expects to find it in).
Enjoy!
