Hello All,
I'm try to get away from doing if/else in a template:
{% if x.message|regtest == "True" %}
do something cool
{% else %}
do something less cool
{% endif %}
given this template filter:
@register.filter(name='regtest')
def regtest(value):
regex = re.compile(r'^\*\*(?P<message>.*)\*\*')
m = regex.match(value)
if m != None:
return "True"
return "False"
I would like to move to something like this in the template:
{{ x.message|regtest }}
given this template filter:
def regtest(value):
regex = re.compile(r'^\*\*(?P<message>.*)\*\*')
m = regex.match(value)
if m != None: return "<b><i>%s</i></b>"%value
else: return value
However, the html tags returned from the filter becomes part of the
element's text value instead of tags. So that's not working.
I'm sure there's way better ways to side-step ugly if/else logic in
the templates. What types of things can people recommend for a Django
new guy.
