HTML TEMPLATING¶
from domonic.html import *
output = render(
html(
head(
style(),
script(),
),
body(
div("hello world"),
a("this is a link", _href="http://www.somesite.com", _style="font-size:10px;"),
ol(''.join([f'{li()}' for thing in range(5)])),
h1("test", _class="test"),
)
)
)
<html><head><style></style><script></script></head><body><div>hello world</div><a href="http://www.somesite.com" style="font-size:10px;">this is a link</a><ol><li></li><li></li><li></li><li></li><li></li></ol><h1 class="test">test</h1></body></html>
install¶
python3 -m pip install domonic
or if you had it before upgrade:
python3 -m pip install domonic --upgrade
usage¶
print(html(body(h1('Hello, World!'))))
<html><body><h1>Hello, World!</h1></body></html>
The User Guide¶
Here you can find instructions for getting the most out of Domonic.
CLI¶
There’s a few args you can pass to domonic on the command line to help you out.
To launch the docs for a quick reference to the APIs use:
python3 -m domonic -h
This command will attempt to generate a template from a webpage. (only simple pages for now)
python3 -m domonic -d http://eventual.technology
Then you can edit/tweak it to get what you need and build new components quicker.

I’ll merge and releaese asap.
EXAMPLE PROJECT¶
A browser based file browser. Working example of how components can work: https://github.com/byteface/Blueberry/
A cron viewer: https://github.com/byteface/ezcron/
Disclaimer¶
There’s several more widely supported libraries doing HTML generation, DOM reading/manipulation, terminal wrappers etc. Maybe use one of those for production due to strictness and support.
This is becoming more of a fast prototyping library.
