Django templates: how to avoid empty lines with include and load?
carriage-return, django, django-templates
Solution
Well after some researches, I found this thread where a patch is submitted and currently being reviewed. This validation step takes too much time regarding my project.
Here is a django module I created to do that. It handles whitespaced/blank lines/empty lines just as Gary Wilson asked in the thread above.
It consists in a template loader and a middleware:
- The template loader tags the requested blank lines (those voluntary inserted by the developer)
- The middleware intercepts the `HttpResponse` and suppresses every blank line. Then, it untags the previously-requested lines and returns the cleared response
Problem
In a template, I use the following code: ``` {% load i18n %} {% include "header.html" %} {% include "top_bar.html" %} ``` But this produces several carriage returns (`\n`) as I separate every `include` and `load` by a carriage return. I don't want to concatenate inclusions like this: ``` {% include "header.html" %}{% include "top_bar.html" %} ``` Because it's unreadable. Is there a way to avoid these generated new lines ?
