I want to use AngularJS with Django however they both use {{ }}
as their template tags. Is there an easy way to change one of the two to use some other custom
So I got some great help in the Angular IRC channel today. It turns out you can change Angular's template tags very easily. The necessary snippets below should be included after your angular include (the given example appears on their mailing lists and would use (())
as the new template tags, substitute for your own):
angular.markup('(())', function(text, textNode, parentElement){
if (parentElement[0].nodeName.toLowerCase() == 'script') return;
text = text.replace(/\(\(/g,'{{').replace(/\)\)/g, '}}');
textNode.text(text);
return angular.markup('{{}}').call(this, text, textNode, parentElement);
});
angular.attrMarkup('(())', function(value, name, element){
value = value.replace(/\(\(/g,'{{').replace(/\)\)/, '}}');
element[0].setAttribute(name, value);
return angular.attrMarkup('{{}}').call(this, value, name, element);
});
Also, I was pointed to an upcoming enhancement that will expose startSymbol
and endSymbol
properties that can be set to whatever tags you desire.
