In config/environment.py: from genshi.template import TemplateLoader as GenshiTemplateLoader def load_environment(global_conf, app_conf): ... ... # Create the chameleon TemplateLoader config['pylons.app_globals'].pt_loader = TemplateLoader( paths['templates'], auto_reload=True) Add a new file in lib (mine is called lib/pt.py): from pylons.templating import pylons_globals from pylons.templating import cached_template def render_pt(template_name, cache_key=None, cache_type=None, cache_expire=None): """Render a page template with z3c.pt.""" def render_template(): globs = pylons_globals() template = globs["app_globals"].pt_loader.load(template_name) return template(**globs) return cached_template(template_name, render_template, cache_key=cache_key, cache_type=cache_type, cache_expire=cache_expire) def render_text(template_name, cache_key=None, cache_type=None, cache_expire=None): """Render a text template with z3c.pt.""" def render_template(): globs = pylons_globals() template = globs["app_globals"].pt_loader.load(template_name, format="text") return template(**globs) return cached_template(template_name, render_template, cache_key=cache_key, cache_type=cache_type, cache_expire=cache_expire) you can then use render_pt to render html/xml templates, and render_text to render text templates, exactly like you use other templating languages.
