template¶
- class lucidity.template.Template(name, pattern, anchor=1, default_placeholder_expression='[\w_.\-]+')[source]¶
Bases: object
A template.
- __init__(name, pattern, anchor=1, default_placeholder_expression='[\w_.\-]+')[source]¶
Initialise with name and pattern.
anchor determines how the pattern is anchored during a parse. A value of ANCHOR_START (the default) will match the pattern against the start of a path. ANCHOR_END will match against the end of a path. To anchor at both the start and end (a full path match) use ANCHOR_BOTH. Finally, None will try to match the pattern once anywhere in the path.
- parse(path)[source]¶
Return dictionary of data extracted from path using this template.
Raise ParseError if path is not parseable by this template.
- format(data)[source]¶
Return a path formatted by applying data to this template.
Raise FormatError if data does not supply enough information to fill the template fields.
