Pythonic way to create a long multi-line string

Question

I have a very long query. I would like to split it in several lines in Python. A way to do it in JavaScript would be using several sentences and joining them with a +<

Answer 1

You can also concatenate variables in when using """ notation:

foo = '1234'

long_string = """fosdl a sdlfklaskdf as
as df ajsdfj asdfa sld
a sdf alsdfl alsdfl """ +  foo + """ aks
asdkfkasdk fak"""

EDIT: Found a better way, with named params and .format():

body = """




    
Lorem ipsum.
    

        
Asdf:
     
{name}
    
    

""".format(
    link='http://www.asdf.com',
    name='Asdf',
)

print(body)
