hey guys, can someone give me some insight on some mako inheritance and namespaces?

I am trying to define variables in a namespace, called base, and then import a template that uses these variables.

the only way I got it to work is by including inside a namespace tag - despite going through all variables, it doesn't generate any output

I can pastebin an example if someone has the will to help out

thanks

mephx if you have declared vars in your base like <%! myvar = "hello" %> you should be able to access it in a template inheriting base via ${self.attr.myvar}

mephx http://docs.makotemplates.org/en/latest/inherit...

blaflamme: I cannot inherit, only include, since what I want to include can't tell where to inherit from, it is variable

blaflamme: would you take a minute to go through a pastebin?

mephx so you'll have to use namespace I suppose

mephx http://docs.makotemplates.org/en/latest/namespa...

mephx but never really used it

blaflamme: indeed, and I am using namespaces

take a look at my example: http://pastebin.com/zSJvfP1X

mephx come to #pyramid, most people are there

blaflamme: kk, ty
