Is it possible to pass a list to the Template.substitute method and
use that in the template, like so..
g = string.Template(gametemplate)
print g.substitute(recap = "none", winner = game["winner"], loser =
game["loser"])
Then in the template...
<b>winner.team
Where winner.team would be the value of game["winner"]["team"].
Thanks!
Sorry, I meant dicts, not lists. Like I said, n00b question.
Basically, no. Substituted values are effectively put into the
template with '%s' substitution, so you'll just get a string
representation of your dictionary. You could play around with
defining your own custom Template class, but it's probably not
worth the effort.
