PyHP - Python Hypertext Preprocessor

Couple of months ago, I was trying to embed Python code into HTML. After given the problem to solve, I was planning for a solution and looking into Python libraries. Suddenly I thought, why not spend some time in google to see if there already exists something similar. Actually I was looking for something very simple and I got one!!! It's called PyHP - Python Hypertext Preprocessor. Thank God, I didn't have to reinvent the wheel, as it was almost the similar thing what I was thinking to build. It's a small, fast, hypertext preprocessor in my favorite language - Python. And of course it is open source. The only thing I needed to change in the code is, I made the code to print output in a html file rather than in console. It was just a simple tweak.

Download and play with PyHP - Python Hypertext Preprocessor. You can use it as a standalone program, or use it with Apache's mod-python.

Enjoy Programming, Enjoy Python!

Thanks. I heard about django and also have some experience with Pylons. These are great web development frameworks. But PyHP is very small (tiny actually) and easy to use. And ofcourse its suitable only for testing/playing and working with much smaller websites.

Hi,

I think you should try PyHP (yes, another piece of software with the same name of what you are talking about):

http://www.pyhp.org

it is heavily developed and supported and it looks very similar and feature rich as PHP.

Strip HTML tags using Python

We often need to strip HTML tags from string (or HTML source). I usually do it using a simple regular expression in Python. Here is my function to strip HTML tags: def remove_html_tags(data): p = re.compile(r'<.*?>') return p.sub('', data) Here is another function to remove more than one consecutive white spaces: def remove_extra_spaces(data): p = re.compile(r'\s+') return p.sub(' ', data) Note that re module needs to be imported in order to use regular expression. Here you can find an updated code that gets the text from html: http://love-python.blogspot.com/2011/04/html-to-text-in-python.html

lambda magic to find prime numbers

Find prime number up to 100 with just 3 lines of code. The 4th line is for printing ;) nums = range(2, 100) for i in range(2, 10):     nums = filter(lambda x: x == i or x % i, nums) print nums Isn't it amazing? Check my new post about Prime number: http://love-python.blogspot.com/2010/11/prime-number-generator-in-python-using.html

Convert text to ASCII and ASCII to text - Python code

Python has a very simple way to convert text to ASCII and ASCII to text. To find the ASCII value of a character use the ord() function. Example: >>> ord('B') 66 To get a character from it's ASCII value use the chr() function. Example: >>> chr(65) 'A' Here is a program to get the list of all characters along with their values: # program to print the list of characters and their ASCII values for value in range(0, 255): print "ASCII Value:", value, "\t", "Character:", chr(value), "\n" Here is another simple ASCII encoding-decoding program: # Convertion from text to ASCII codes message = raw_input("Enter message to encode: ") print "Decoded string (in ASCII):" for ch in message: print ord(ch), print "\n\n" # Convertion from ASCII codes to text message = raw_input("Enter ASCII codes: ") decodedMessage = "" for item in message.split(): decodedMessage += chr
