Who is using pongo2?

[flosch]

Hi everyone,

I'm aware that development on pongo2 slowed down over the last couple years as it has been declared as almost feature complete.

Recently I've been thinking about actively continuing development and add support for a bunch of new features other template engines (incl. Django's) came up with.

Before I continue invest more time into that I'd like to compile a list of projects/companies/individuals who actively use pongo2 in their applications. I not only want to take this list into account for my decision making of continuing development but also want to compile a show room/list of users and make that publicly available.

If you, your project or your company is using (or has been using) pongo2 feel free to add a comment with name & link. If you can provide an example of your use case, that'd be highly appreciated as well. (If I can use your company's/project's logo as well for the show room, please explicitly state so.) If you have any missing features or feedback I should consider, please add this to your comment.

Thanks everyone for your time and help!

JCA Solutions, using it for most of our server-side e-learning products, including https://trainingvault.net/ (used for the entire admin) and one of our LMS versions. Feel free to use our logo.

Personally I'd love to see more Jinja2 features in here, as the Python projects I've moved off of were mostly Jinja2-bound.

Good to hear these good news!

I have been using the project for my personal projects and all was fine so I can't say what I did not have in pongo2's functionality.

Got your email, and I don't mind. Actually I haven't managed to use pongo2 in a real world product yet. We use symfony a lot. And its template engine, twig. Which is very similar. I searched for a similar template engine in golang world and found this way back when.

I don't have much feedback to add. Maybe you could check out jinja2 and twig and see If they same any extra features you could add in pongo2.

Thanks for reaching out. I was interested in Pongo2 as a possible shared template language between Python and Go. We do some Python Flask web things from time to time at work. Since that time we're moving away from Go as we've found Python more flexible for most of our staff for content prep and rendering. If I do more Go development I'd be very interested in a template language that is well documented, known to the Python community and works with Go too. Teaching Go templates just didn't work for us. All the best, Robert

Thanks for reaching, flosch.This is Buwei.

Before I ran into Golang world, I've been using Twig.php and twig.js in the real world projects. Indeed, when I switched to Golang, I searched your project pongo2, which inherit the same spirit of original Jinja2 template language. I usually use with integration with Gin and Fiber web framework, currently I'm looking for create custom adapter to generate email, and you made the API simple to work with. Big thanks.

FYI, I recently made a website for my company using pongo2's custom filter feature to calculate numbers based on input. e.g. ounce to grams, ..etc. (ref: https://risehill.tw)

@flosch Hello!
When I answered to your email, I didn't have any real feature request in mind.
I just found one that would be really useful for me and my company (and maybe others).
I'm using pongo2 with an HTML WYSIWYG editor.
It would be nice to be able to highlight "pongo2 syntax error".
It's currently reporting syntax error as "normal" error messages.
It's not very easy nor safe to try to parse the error message, and extract the line/column.
Is it possible to return a custom error type (that could be matched with errors.As()) containing more information about the syntax error ?

Proudly using pongo2 as Gosense blog template engine.

I have always used Pongo2 for all my personal projects.
I also found it useful as a lexer/parser.
It saved me from writing my own.

Hi I have used pongo2 for a number projects that made it into production (Two CRM solutions and an E-commerce site) and many side projects as well as internal tools. Unfortunately I can't share links or mention names, but unless a project must be built as SPA I use pongo2.

Hi, I know https://github.com/lxc/lxd/ uses it, e.g. for templating files in vm images.

Jaguar Network, we use pongo2 to manage grafana dashboards based on jinja2 templates.
