Displaying Mongodb Documents With Html

I am trying to create an HTML table to display the contents of a mongodb collection. The collection contains data about different customer orders from a small business. Some of t

Solution 1:

Looking over the documentation for the bottle template engine, it looks like you can use 'ifs' and 'fors' to accomplish this.

For instance, if you order is stored at rows['orders'] and you don't know how many there are, in your template you can place:

%for item in rows['orders']:
  <td>{{item}}</td>
%end

or say that you need to display a special warning if your customer is ordering an item that is frequently on backorder, and you've passed in another variable, 'backorder', that specifies this:

%if backorder:
  <span>This item is frequently on backorder</span>
%end

I haven't tested either of these, but I've done similar things using the Django and Flask template engines. I pulled these samples from here:

http://bottlepy.org/docs/dev/tutorial.html#templates

and the 'Bottle Template to Format the Output' section here:

http://bottlepy.org/docs/dev/tutorial_app.html#using-bottle-for-a-web-based-todo-list

Hope this helps!
