Put symbolic names into your templates, as many as you want and replace them with the real names: boilerplate = """ # Module MODULE # DATE # SUMMARY class CLASS pass if __name__ == '__main__': import unittest unittest.main('CLASS_t') """ names = ''' MODULE=Corner_Cutter "DATE=%s" "SUMMARY=Fast stuff" CLASS=Sharpener ''' % time.ctime () import SE Stream_Editor = SE.SE (names) print Stream_Editor (boilerplate) # Module Corner_Cutter # Fri Jul 14 10:16:53 2006 # Fast stuff class Sharpener pass if __name__ == '__main__': import unittest unittest.main('Sharpener_t') Will also do files: Stream_Editor ('boilerplates/module_template', 'projects/%s.py' % Stream_Editor ('MODULE')) 'projects/Corner_Cutter.py' You'd have to download SE from the Cheese Shop. I managed to upload at least the description, but people tell me that the program isn't there. So while I struggle with the upload (assistance welcome) I send out SE by individual request. If you want to try it, just tell me. Cheers Frederic |
