Description

A mlreportgen.dom.TemplateText object contains XML markup read from a document's template on opening. The object contains one of these segments of template text occurring between:

  • the beginning of the template and the first hole in the template

  • subsequent holes in the template

  • the last hole and the end of the template

Moving from hole to hole causes these segments of text to be embedded in TemplateText objects and appended to the document's list of children. This guarantees that the template text will be included in the output document in the same order in which it occurs in the template interspersed with the content appended at each hole.

The mlreportgen.dom.TemplateText class is a handle class.
