Convert webvirt to a new templating system and make efforts to remove all markup from code #1

Closed michaelsmithxyz closed 11 years ago

michaelsmithxyz commented 11 years ago

I don't think any of us liked web.py's templating system, and it seemed to be the cause of a lot of our problems. I suggest we work on finding a new system, and making efforts to convert our templates to that, as well as to remove markup from urls.py.

I intend to unhardcode the paths now... I think web.py is kind of weak in general. It shouldn't be super hard to convert it away to another engine, but I'm kind of attached to web.py Make suggestions...

It's not weak. It's lightweight, but we weren't structured enough to make effective use of that. I'm looking into templates and perhaps a new framework, but I don't know yet.

I thought web.py's templating system worked well for us, but we didn't use it as effectively as we could have. I say this mainly concerning the code for the list of VMs in the sidebar that we had to copy and paste for every page.

i'm going to use Jinja2 to redo the templates like data.

jholtom commented 11 years ago

Jinja2 looks easy, and SOOO much better at using python in the html files.

This is somewhere between a bug and an enhancement; could we get someone definitely assigned to this?
