Text modifiers inline

[gazpachoking]

I am just trying out htpy after getting frustrated with jinja templates, and I think I'm on board. One thing that I wasn't super happy with was how tags that go inside text blocks (strong, em, etc.) end up getting formatted (when using an auto-formatter, ruff in my case.) Is there a better way that other people are handling this? e.g.

                    p[
                        "Especilly if blocks start to get long, ",
                        em["text"],
                        " with ",
                        strong["tags"],
                        "embedded inside don't flow very nicely.",
                    ]

Hmm, just Markup? I guess that's nicer, if you aren't injecting user data.

                    p[
                        Markup(
                            """Especially if blocks start to get long, <em>text</em> with <strong>tags</strong> 
                            embedded inside don't flow very nicely."""
                        ),
                    ],
                    p[
                        Markup(
                            f"""Especially if blocks start to get long, {em["text"]} with {strong["tags"]} 
                            embedded inside don't flow very nicely."""
                        ),
                    ]

I think ruff/black generally respects the line lengths in these cases and as long as you do not force it to break them with a comma at the end, it should format it on one line. If you have heavily indented code that will be a problem though. Markup is fine if you do not have untrusted data or need to embed other htpy elements. I do not have any other ideal solutions, I agree that those kinds of snippets looks nicer with regular tags.

Maybe #104 could help with these cases in the future while still allowing untrusted user input.

Yeah, #104 could be cool. I'm fairly happy with things now, I'm less indented after splitting some stuff up into functions, and the Markup solution works in a pinch.
