front.elements.tree_maker_base

class front.elements.tree_maker_base.ElementTreeMaker

Takes care of generating the composite tree of elements based on the “rendering” specification previously compiled from the configuration. This composite tree will then be used to build the application by rendering each element recursively from the root of the tree (the App container).

mk_tree(front_objs: Iterable[Any], rendering_spec: dict) → front.elements.elements.FrontContainerBase

Entrypoint of the ElementTreeMaker class. Builds the composite tree

Parameters

• front_objs – The objects to render after transformation (see AppMaker).

• rendering_spec – The rendering spec of the application, compiled from the given configuration. This nested object contains information on how an object should be rendered based on its type (general spec that can be reused for several objects) or its name (specific spec for a single object). Both specs can be used for a single objects. In that case, the spec that will be used for this object will be a combination between those two specs (any value in the specific spec overwrites the value in the general spec for any key that they could have in common).
