what about in addition to allowing someone to pass in the template, how
about allowing them to pass in the location to the template. Then all
you would have to do is give us a paste command to make waitforit spit
out the default template which someone could then modify to suit their
needs. To use the reference to a template in addition to a real
template you have to edit middleware.py
at line 12 add:
import os
at line 31add:
elif os.path.exists(template):
template = file(template).read()
so the entire is statement is now:
if template is None:
template = TEMPLATE
elif os.path.exists(template):
template = file(template).read()
Then change wsgiapp.py so that it reads
def make_filter(
app,
global_conf,
time_limit='10',
poll_time='10',
template=None):
time_limit = float(time_limit)
poll_time = float(poll_time)
return WaitForIt(app, time_limit=time_limit,
poll_time=poll_time, template=template)
so that a template can be passed in at the ini file
Then the appropriate ini filter entry could be something like:
[filter:speed]
use = egg:waitforit
template = %(here)s/waitforit_templates/temp.html
time_limit = 2
poll_time = 1
That could solve thing pretty easily, although I don't know how you
would make paste spit out the default template file so that we could edit it
