My Python-dev app includes the following in development.ini: # If you'd like to change the default template engine used to render text/html # content in decorator style controllers, edit this line. template_engine.default = genshi
This can easily confuse the majority of users who don't use decorator-style controllers and may not understand what they are. It's doubly confusing that Genshi is the default for decorator controllers while Mako is the default for ordinary controllers. Not to mention that Genshi is not a Pylons dependency. Does it even make sense to set the template engine in the config file? It's really a programming choice, not a deployment choice. Unless the developer has provided a complete set of redundant templates for the alternate engine (which nobody will do), the user cannot switch the default engine without breaking the application. It's not like swiching a SQLAlchemy backend. Changing the template engine requires programming changes in the application. So it belongs more in environment.py than the config file. -- Mike Orr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-devel" group.
