Django Fett

Django Fett is an incomplete code generator used on several projects. This is an attempt to clean it up and make it public for consumption.

Django Fett is different because it leverages Frontmatter Metadata and exposes the extra metadata into the template context. Frontmatter Metadata may also contain variables that make setting an output filename cleaner than trying to save file or folder names with Jinja syntax.

Example Usage

Example Template (./examples/list_models.html)

---
filename: output/{{ __model__.meta_model_name }}.py
---

# App: {{ __app__.name }}

## Fields
{% for field in __model__.get_fields() %}
- {{ field }}{% endfor %}

## Metadata
{{ __metadata__ }}

This example assumes we have a model in app/models.py which contains a model named Backup.

python src/fett.py --app-name=app --input-filename=./examples/list_models.html

This will create a file for every model in our models.py file. For our Backup model, the file will be rendered and saved as output/backup.py.

# App: app

## Fields

- app.Backup.id
- app.Backup.server
- app.Backup.backup_configuration
- app.Backup.status
- app.Backup.restore_status
- app.Backup.archive_path
- app.Backup.size
- app.Backup.uuid
- app.Backup.duration
- app.Backup.last_backup_time

## Metadata
{'filename': 'output/backup.py'}
