Accessing the Mako Template Lookup Interface

[Vincent Catalano]

Hello Pyramid community,

I was wondering if it's possible to get the Mako templates lookup interface from within a view callable. Looking at the mako_templating.py file in source I notice that there is an interface for adjusting Mako template file lookups as well as a get_template method (in order to account for packing naming conventions, etc.). Would it be possible to use this lookup object and how might I be able to access it so that I could call the get_template function?

Thanks for your help!

thank's vincent to give a coin on this subject
I've already submit a mail on this subject on 02/03, and didn't receive
any answer :/

for me, and after playing with pyramid, the template lookup
is create after the first call of mako renderer as a zca utility.
We cant' play with it before any view create him and can't
modify the way he is build

so ...
to complete template_lookup, I think that we don't have the choice
of completly write another mako module factory and overwrite template
renderer resolution as describe in the documentation.

that's a mess ...

Thanks for your reply, Bard!

I agree. In the end, I decided to create a new Mako module factory to use apart from Pyramid's template lookup interface. Michael Merickel gave me some good insight to this problem with his SO answer http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15509786/get-mako-template-from-within-pyramid-app-view, but, like you said, we still can't play with the Pyramid Mako factory until after the first view call.

I can understand the reasoning for the current implementation, however, it also would be nice to have a single Mako factory that can be accessed easily outside of views.
