Variable name with spaces

[l4u]

Not sure if this is in the spec, but the python implementation pystache can render {{ variable name}}.

import pystache
print pystache.render('{{ with space }}',{'with space':'content'})

Is there any way we can render this in GRMustache without throwing an error for compatibility? Because I got data in this format.
Thanks!

Hi l4u,

From https://github.com/mustache/spec/blob/master/specs/interpolation.yml :

The tag's content MUST be a non-whitespace character sequence NOT containing the current closing delimiter.

So, no, I won't update GRMustache for that.

I would instead open an issue in the pystache repo, so that no more people get bitten by this inconsistency.

Sorry. I hope you don't have too many keys to update.

Thanks, I've posted it at defunkt/pystache#156

@groue may I know which file/lines I should look into?
I know this isn't following the specs but I will have to parse those malformed data.

@l4u I did not understand your last question. How may I help you?

I am trying to allow tags with white spaces.
seems that it works if I remove the line at

I am not saying this should be merged 😄 it's just for my special use case

[groue]

I guess it would work, yes. So go ahead if you prefer this option.

[groue]

Of course the best option is to stop using white spaces in your keys, and this is what I advise you to do.

[l4u]

Yeah, but unfortunately the mustache templates are out of my control. They are from 3rd parties. 😢

[groue]

Well, in that case... You can send them the links to the pystache issue, and to the spec (https://github.com/mustache/spec/blob/master/specs/interpolation.yml). So that they stop producing invalid templates. Eventually. Maybe 😄
