Jinja2 VS click

But, on the other hand, I can read in the jinja repository that there is not the same Switching From Other Template Engines and also exists documentation about Support for templates engines

jinja: Default templating engine for and dependency of flask

or as complex as bringing Jinja into the picture. Some other options include mustache templates, the built in Template class, and some libraries noted here.

Jinja

Hey u/GuzTech , this issue is mostly related to an old version of jinja that you might be using, here is the report: https://github.com/pallets/jinja/issues/1585

Turns out it wasn't how I was getting the variable -- registered from the api call VS lookup('file') -- it was mainly that for some reason, using 'map()' sometimes needs ' | list | to_json ' tacked on to the end to correctly output the results without the "generator object do_map at xxxx" instead (as mentioned here).

Cookiecutter is a command-line utility that creates projects from templates. There's a list of templates maintained by the cookiecutter team and plenty of community awesome lists. It's built with python and uses the jinja templating framework (found in python web frameworks like flask). You can use it to make a template for pretty much anything! All you need to get started is pip install cookiecutter.

This major release of Flask is accompanied by major releases of Werkzeug, Jinja2, click, and itsdangerous which we'd also welcome and appreciate testing (their pre releases are installed with the Flask pre release).

Context: "click" - "Command Line Interface Creation Kit" - easily create CLIs from Python code, via adding decorators: https://github.com/pallets/click

"click-web" in turn turns the click CLI app into a web app with one line of code.

there is also click, it is more straight forward and also nice to keep the relevant code where the code is. https://github.com/pallets/click/

I don't have huge experience with Python, but I used async code with C#/Typescript and lately I had to use some asyncio magic.

I found this article: https://blog.dalibo.com/2022/09/12/monitoring-python-subproc... and while async/await syntax is the same, it's not entirely clear for me, why there's some event loop and what exactly happens, when I pass function to asyncio.run(), like here: https://github.com/pallets/click/issues/85#issuecomment-5034...

So, you can use it and it's not that hard, but there are some parts that are vague for me, no matter which language implements async support.

Hmm… did you try such approaches, as [click](https://github.com/pallets/click) or[tap](https://github.com/swansonk14/typed-argument-parser)?

This app leverages these powerful libraries: - yt-dlp: video downloader - moviepy: video trimmer/merger - click: CLI app creator - rich / rich-click: CLI app styler

I've used click [1] a lot to build Python tooling scripts the past few years. Click usage is "sort of" similar to the author's proposed solution. There's also a small section here [2] that describes some of the issues covered in the article (in context of argparse).

I think the success of Arduino in the hardware world can be explained in a similar way, as the relative success of "command line app frameworks" like Click[1], or even much lighter-weight libraries like argparse[2]. You absolutely can get away with using just getopt[3] (and people experienced with it will likely strongly prefer it). However certain factors such as a more declarative API, a nice logo, the existence of an ecosystem (even if you're not actively drawing from it), an official "branded" forum, etc can all play into picking a more complex solution, with more baggage you don't need, certain oddities that may throw users off, etc.

Exactly! You can also use a library like click (https://github.com/pallets/click) to help take care of the command line side, while you focus on the 'business logic' of your application :)
