OOHTML
Object Oriented HTML Construction Toolkit for Python
Simple Usage
you can construct HTML in two ways, first with feeding the Constructor::
>>> from OOHTML import *
>>> C = Constructor()
>>> C.feed([o('html'), #open HTML tag
o('head'), #open Head
c('head'), #close Head
o('body'),
o('div'),
r('Hello World!'), #raw content
s('area'), #singleton (self closing element)
c('div'),
c('body'),
c('html')])
Or using class methods, the above example can be rewriten as::
>>> from OOHTML import *
>>> C = Constructor()
>>> C.open('html').open('head').close('head').open('body')
>>> C.open('div').raw('Hello World!').single('area').close('div')
>>> C.close('body').close('html')
to render the constructor as html, you can use render() method::
>>> C.render()
Each of opening, singleton or raw elements can have an id (not the HTML ID of the element) so they can be accessible::
>>> R = r('Hello World', 'message') #a raw element with id 'message'
>>> O = o('div', {}, 'menu') #opening element with id 'menu'
>>> S = s('img', {}, 'bg') #singleton with id 'bg'
>>> C.feed(R)
>>> C.getElementById('message')
>>> C.removeElementById('message')
You can insert a Constructor object inside another Constructor::
>>> sampleConstructor = Constructor()
>>> C.addAfterId('sampleID', sampleConstructor)
There are numerous methods for accessing elements and changing its data::
>>> C.getElementById('message').value #Raw elements use .value to store their data
>>> C.getElementById('sample').attributes #Opening and Singleton elements have .attribute
>>> C.getElementById('sample').tag #Opening, Closing & Singleton elements have .tag
>>> C.getElementById('sample').id #All elements have .id
Opening and Singleton Elements can have attributes::
>>> div = o('div', {'class':['message', 'floater']}, 'contents')
>>> C.feed(div)
>>> div.addAtributes({'id': ['sample']})
You can use this attributes to select elements::
>>> C.getElementsByAttributes({'class': ['test']}) #This returns a generator
To show you an example::
>>> from OOHTML import *
>>> C = Constructor()
>>> C.feed(o('html'),
o('head'),
o('script', {'type': ['text/javascript'], 'src':['script.js']}),
c('script'),
o('style', {'type': ['text/css'], 'src':['style.css']}),
c('style'),
c('head'),
o('body'),
o('div', {'class':['message']}),
r('Hello World!!!', 'message'),
s('img', {'alt': ['Hello'], 'src':['img.jpeg']}),
c('div'),
o('div', {'class':['message', 'floater']}, 'contents'), c('div'),
c('body'),
c('html'))
>>> C.getElementById('message').value = "HTML CONSTRUCTOR!!!"
>>> C.addAfterId('contents', Constructor().open('div').raw('OOHTML').single('br').close('div'))
>>> print(C.render())
The above outputs::
<html>
<head>
<script type = "text/javascript" src = "script.js">
</script>
<style type = "text/css" src = "style.css">
</style>
</head>
<body>
<div class = "message">
HTML CONSTRUCTOR!!!
<img src = "img.jpeg" alt = "Hello"/>
</div>
<div class = "message floater">
<div>
