pongo2
pongo2 is the successor of pongo, a Django-syntax like templating-language.
Install/update using go get
(no dependencies required by pongo2):
go get -u github.com/flosch/pongo2
Please use the issue tracker if you're encountering any problems with pongo2 or if you need help with implementing tags or filters (create a ticket!). If possible, please use playground to create a short test case on what's wrong and include the link to the snippet in your issue.
New: Try pongo2 out in the pongo2 playground.
First impression of a template
<html><head><title>Our admins and users</title></head>
{# This is a short example to give you a quick overview of pongo2's syntax. #}
{% macro user_details(user, is_admin=false) %}
<div class="user_item">
<!-- Let's indicate a user's good karma -->
<h2 {% if (user.karma >= 40) || (user.karma > calc_avg_karma(userlist)+5) %}
class="karma-good"{% endif %}>
<!-- This will call user.String() automatically if available: -->
{{ user }}
</h2>
<!-- Will print a human-readable time duration like "3 weeks ago" -->
<p>This user registered {{ user.register_date|naturaltime }}.</p>
<!-- Let's allow the users to write down their biography using markdown;
we will only show the first 15 words as a preview -->
<p>The user's biography:</p>
<p>{{ user.biography|markdown|truncatewords_html:15 }}
<a href="/user/{{ user.id }}/">read more</a></p>
{% if is_admin %}<p>This user is an admin!</p>{% endif %}
</div>
{% endmacro %}
<body>
<!-- Make use of the macro defined above to avoid repetitive HTML code
since we want to use the same code for admins AND members -->
<h1>Our admins</h1>
{% for admin in adminlist %}
{{ user_details(admin, true) }}
{% endfor %}
<h1>Our members</h1>
{% for user in userlist %}
{{ user_details(user) }}
{% endfor %}
</body>
</html>
Development status
Latest stable release: v3.0 (go get -u gopkg.in/flosch/pongo2.v3
/ v3
-branch) [read the announcement]
Current development: v4 (master
-branch)
Note: With the release of pongo v4 the branch v2 will be deprecated.
Deprecated versions (not supported anymore): v1
Topic | Status |
---|---|
Django version compatibility: | 1.7 |
Missing (planned) filters: | none (hints) |
Missing (planned) tags: | none (hints) |
Please also have a look on the caveats and on the official add-ons.
Features (and new in pongo2)
- Entirely rewritten from the ground-up.
- Advanced C-like expressions.
- Complex function calls within expressions.
- Easy API to create new filters and tags (including parsing arguments)
- Additional features:
- Macros including importing macros from other files (see template_tests/macro.tpl)
- Template sandboxing (directory patterns, banned tags/filters)
Recent API changes within pongo2
If you're using the master
-branch of pongo2, you might be interested in this section. Since pongo2 is still in development (even though there is a first stable release!), there could be (backwards-incompatible) API changes over time. To keep track of these and therefore make it painless for you to adapt your codebase, I'll list them here.
- Function signature for tag execution changed: not taking a
bytes.Buffer
anymore; insteadExecute()
-functions are now taking aTemplateWriter
interface. - Function signature for tag and filter parsing/execution changed (
error
return type changed to*Error
). INodeEvaluator
has been removed and got replaced byIEvaluator
. You can change your existing tags/filters by simply replacing the interface.- Two new helper functions:
RenderTemplateFile()
andRenderTemplateString()
. Template.ExecuteRW()
is nowTemplate.ExecuteWriter()
Template.Execute*()
functions do now take apongo2.Context
directly (no pointer anymore).
How you can help
- Write filters / tags (see tutorial) by forking pongo2 and sending pull requests
- Write/improve code tests (use the following command to see what tests are missing:
go test -v -cover -covermode=count -coverprofile=cover.out && go tool cover -html=cover.out
or have a look on gocover.io/github.com/flosch/pongo2) - Write/improve template tests (see the
template_tests/
directory) - Write middleware, libraries and websites using pongo2. :-)
Documentation
For a documentation on how the templating language works you can head over to the Django documentation. pongo2 aims to be compatible with it.
You can access pongo2's API documentation on godoc.

Caveats
Filters
- date / time: The
date
andtime
filter are taking the Golang specific time- and date-format (not Django's one) currently. Take a look on the format here. - stringformat:
stringformat
does not take Python's string format syntax as a parameter, instead it takes Go's. Essentially{{ 3.14|stringformat:"pi is %.2f" }}
isfmt.Sprintf("pi is %.2f", 3.14)
. - escape / force_escape: Unlike Django's behaviour, the
escape
-filter is applied immediately. Therefore there is no need for aforce_escape
-filter yet.
Tags
- for: All the
forloop
fields (likeforloop.counter
) are written with a capital letter at the beginning. For example, thecounter
can be accessed byforloop.Counter
and the parentloop byforloop.Parentloop
. - now: takes Go's time format (see date and time-filter).
Misc
- not in-operator: You can check whether a map/struct/string contains a key/field/substring by using the in-operator (or the negation of it):
{% if key in map %}Key is in map{% else %}Key not in map{% endif %}
or{% if !(key in map) %}Key is NOT in map{% else %}Key is in map{% endif %}
.

beego-pongo2
, but for pongo2 v2. - macaron-pongo2 - pongo2 support for Macaron, a modular web framework.

Please add your project to this list and send me a pull request when you've developed something nice for pongo2.
API-usage examples
Please see the documentation for a full list of provided API methods.
A tiny example (template string)
// Compile the template first (i. e. creating the AST)
tpl, err := pongo2.FromString("Hello {{ name|capfirst }}!")
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
// Now you can render the template with the given
// pongo2.Context how often you want to.
out, err := tpl.Execute(pongo2.Context{"name": "florian"})
if err != nil {
panic(err)
}
fmt.Println(out) // Output: Hello Florian!
Example server-usage (template file)
package main
import (
"github.com/flosch/pongo2"
"net/http"
)
// Pre-compiling the templates at application startup using the
// little Must()-helper function (Must() will panic if FromFile()
// or FromString() will return with an error - that's it).
// It's faster to pre-compile it anywhere at startup and only
// execute the template later.
var tplExample = pongo2.Must(pongo2.FromFile("example.html"))
func examplePage(w http.ResponseWriter, r *http.Request) {
// Execute the template per HTTP request
err := tplExample.ExecuteWriter(pongo2.Context{"query": r.FormValue("query")}, w)
if err != nil {
http.Error(w, err.Error(), http.StatusInternalServerError)
}
}
func main() {
http.HandleFunc("/", examplePage)
http.ListenAndServe(":8080", nil)
}
