Development branch for "Version 2"

This is the development branch v2 for "Version 2" of pyformat.info. We're currently migrating the page to use Lektor. Therefore the description below may not be completely accurate anymore.

The current plan is for this migration to be finished somewhen in the first half of 2018. But - no promises :)

PyFormat.info: Using %, f-strings, and .format() for great good!

With this project @ulope and @zerok wanted to document Python's awesome string formatting system with practical examples. While the official documentation on python.org contains a great deal of information regarding the actual syntax specification of the formatters and some examples, we felt it would be nice to see the new and old style of formatting side-by-side and provide even more practical examples.

What is Where?

The website you can find on https://pyformat.info is statically generated using Lektor. All examples are sub-pages of the examples page and consist of one or multiple code-blocks providing the %, .format, or f-string syntax for a specific use-case.

All the examples can be automatically tested using tox:

$ tox

Development setup

• Create a Python 3.6 virtualenv
• pip install fabric3
• fab sync

Now, you can execute lektor directly from your virtualenv in order to build the website or start the development server.

How to Contribute

If you have another awesome example of what can be done with Python's formatters please create a examples subpage with all the formatting variants you want to cover. Please also include a short summary describing why this example is interesting.

Once you have that, simply open a pull-request! Please make sure that you code is PEP8-compliant and that all tests are still passing.
