All of Pyramid's template rendering is handled in the context of a request. This is primarily because the template lookup is handled through the registry which is attached to the request. If you have the registry, you can use pyramid.renderers.render() with a dummy request object in order to use the template directly (or if you are in a view, you may just pass in your current request object).
I really don't understand your problem though... Pyramid uses views to handle requests, so given that, when you are in your view you may do whatever you want to return a valid pyramid.response.Response object. For example: resp = Response() resp.body = render('mytemplate.mako', {'param': request.params['some_request_param']}, request) return resp -- Michael -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "pylons-discuss" group.
