Genshi is a template engine for XML-based vocabularies written in Python. Genshi is used to easily insert generated output into XML-based languages, usually HTML, and reuse elements between documents. Genshi is based on Kid and aims to implement some of its functionality while processing templates faster.[1]
Genshi's can be used with several Python web frameworks, such as CherryPy[2] [3], TurboGears[4], Pylons[5] and web2py[6]. Genshi will eventually replace Kid in the TurboGears web framework.[7]
Genshi Markup
Genshi makes use of namespaces to embed instructions into HTML. A typical instruction is given as an attribute, with a Python expression inside the quotes. For example, the following will render a paragraph that shows 4:
<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" xmlns:py="http://genshi.edgewall.org/">
<body>
<p py:content="2 + 2">This will be replaced with 4</p>
</body>
</html>
Because of the use of namespaces, Genshi can be used in WYSIWYG HTML editors.[8]
Differences between Kid and Genshi
- Genshi directly interprets templates (unlike Kid, which generates Python code)[9]
- Genshi uses XInclude for template reuse[9]
- Genshi adds attributes Kid does not have, like
py:choose[9]
