Template folder?

[Andrew Burton]

Is it possible to put my template files in a sub directory? I put a
path in app.yaml, moved my files into its corresponding directory,
added the path to the line where the templates get loaded, and when I
tested it out locally it seemed to work. However, once I uploaded it,
it seems to break.

I am having the exact same problem so I have had to temporarily remove
the sub-directory.

Are you referring to the Django-style templates? You do not need an
entry in app.yaml for those, as they are not accessed directly by
outsiders.

Assuming a "templates" subfolder, you can then reference the template
as 'templates/mytemplate.html'

This works for me locally (I do not have an invite to production so
cannot test). I know you got it working locally too, I just wonder if
whatever you put in app.yaml is causing problems.

That worked! It shouldn't, because the app.yaml file just sets up
handlers, pour syrup on me and call me flapjacks it worked. Thanks!

Hi,

How did you solve this problem?

[kscott]

I created a folder I called html and put all of my templates in that
directory.

Then use the following code:

path = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'html/
home.htm')
self.response.out.write(template.render(path,
template_values) )

I did in that way too, but it's just works locally

I do it as simply as

def get(self):
template_values = { }
path = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'templates/
index.html')
self.response.out.write(template.render(path, template_values))

My templates are stored in a directory call templates under the root
of the main file

main.py
templates/index.html

Feel free to grab the appengine-utilities demo to see this working.

That is what's running on http://gaeutilities.appspot.com so you can
see it working both locally and hosted.

It works! Thanks a lot

I current have the exact same setup as you, i.e. my templates are in a
templates folder and the path to the templates are laid out just like
the snippet you provided but it didn't work for me.

path = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'index.html')
self.response.out.write(template.render(path, template_values))

Do you have a handler in your app.yaml file? Like:

- url: /templates
static_dir: templates

path = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'templates/
index.html')

note, the templates/

I made sure I have templates/ this time:

path = os.path.join(os.path.dirname(__file__), 'templates/
index.html')
self.response.out.write(template.render(path, template_values))

And I get:

Traceback (most recent call last):

__init__.py", line 499, in __call__
handler.get(*groups)

It's still not seeing your template. Make sure the file is
"index.html" and that it has proper permissions.

[Harlley Roberto]

I did so

path = os.path.join(os.getcwd(), 'templates/index.html')

and works perfectly
