Components

ft_html and ft_hx functions to add some conveniences to ft, along with a full set of basic HTML components, and functions to work with forms and FT conversion

from lxml import html as lx
from pprint import pprint

Str, show and repr

---

source

show

 show (ft, *rest)

Renders FT Components into HTML within a Jupyter notebook.

sentence = P(Strong("FastHTML is ", I("Fast")), id='sentence_id')

When placed within the show() function, this will render the HTML in Jupyter notebooks.

show(sentence)

FastHTML is Fast

In notebooks, FT components are rendered as their syntax highlighted XML/HTML:

sentence

<p id="sentence_id">
<strong>FastHTML is <i>Fast</i></strong></p>

Elsewhere, they are represented as their underlying data structure:

print(repr(sentence))

p((strong(('FastHTML is ', i(('Fast',),{})),{}),),{'id': 'sentence_id'})

---

source

FT.__str__

 FT.__str__ ()

Return str(self).

If they have an id, then that id is used as the component’s str representation:

f'hx_target=#{sentence}'

'hx_target=#sentence_id'

---

source

FT.__radd__

 FT.__radd__ (b)

'hx_target=#' + sentence

'hx_target=#sentence_id'

---

source

FT.__add__

 FT.__add__ (b)

sentence + '...'

'sentence_id...'

fh_html and fh_hx

source

attrmap_x

 attrmap_x (o)

source

ft_html

 ft_html (tag:str, *c, id=None, cls=None, title=None, style=None,
          attrmap=None, valmap=None, ft_cls=None, **kwargs)

ft_html('a', **{'@click.away':1})

<a @click.away="1"></a>

ft_html('a', {'@click.away':1})

<a @click.away="1"></a>

c = Div(id='someid')

ft_html('a', id=c)

<a id="someid" name="someid"></a>

ft_hx

 ft_hx (tag:str, *c, target_id=None, hx_vals=None, hx_target=None,
        id=None, cls=None, title=None, style=None, accesskey=None,
        contenteditable=None, dir=None, draggable=None, enterkeyhint=None,
        hidden=None, inert=None, inputmode=None, lang=None, popover=None,
        spellcheck=None, tabindex=None, translate=None, hx_get=None,

        hx_push_url=None, hx_confirm=None, hx_disable=None,
        hx_replace_url=None, hx_disabled_elt=None, hx_ext=None,
        hx_headers=None, hx_history=None, hx_history_elt=None,
        hx_inherit=None, hx_params=None, hx_preserve=None, hx_prompt=None,
        hx_request=None, hx_sync=None, hx_validate=None, **kwargs)

ft_hx('a', hx_vals={'a':1})

<a hx-vals='{"a": 1}'></a>

ft_hx('a', hx_target=c)

<a hx-target="#someid"></a>

For tags that have a name attribute, it will be set to the value of id if not provided explicitly:

Form(Button(target_id='foo', id='btn'),
     hx_post='/', target_id='tgt', id='frm')

<form hx-post="/" hx-target="#tgt" id="frm" name="frm"><button hx-target="#foo" id="btn" name="btn"></button></form>

File

 File (fname)

Use the unescaped text in file fname directly

a = Input(name='nm')
a

<input name="nm">

a(hx_swap_oob='true')

<input name="nm" hx-swap-oob="true">

a

<input name="nm" hx-swap-oob="true">

fill_dataclass

 fill_dataclass (src, dest)

Modifies dataclass in-place and returns it

nt = TodoItem('', 0, False, '')
fill_dataclass(todo, nt)
nt

TodoItem(title='Profit', id=2, done=True, details='Details', opt='b')

find_inputs

 find_inputs (e, tags='input', **kw)

Recursively find all elements in e with tags and attrs matching kw

inps = find_inputs(form, id='title')
test_eq(len(inps), 1)
inps

[input((),{'value': 'Profit', 'id': 'title', 'class': 'char', 'name': 'title'})]

You can also use lxml for more sophisticated searching:

elem = lx.fromstring(to_xml(form))
test_eq(elem.xpath("//input[@id='title']/@value"), ['Profit'])
