<h1>Basic Inheritance</h1>
<h2>Introduction</h2>
<p>Cheetah, like Python, is an object-oriented language if you so choose to
use it in that fashion. That is to say that you can use Cheetah in with
object-oriented principles <em>or</em> you can use Cheetah in a strictly functional
sense, like Python, Cheetah does not place restrictions on these barriers.</p>
<p>While Cheetah is not strictly Python, it was designed as such to interoperate,
particularly with the notion of classes, with Python itself. In effect you can
define Python classes that inherit and extend from Cheetah-derived classes and
vice versa. For this, Cheetah defines a few <strong>directives</strong> (denoted with the <code>#</code>
hash-mark) that are of some help, the most important one being the <code>#extends</code>
directive, with others playing important roles like <code>#import</code>, <code>#attr</code> and <code>#super</code></p>
<p>In this recipe/tutorial I intend to explain and define a few key inheritance
patterns with Cheetah, being:</p>
<ul>
<li>A Cheetah Template inheriting from Python</li>
<li>Python inheriting from a Cheetah Template</li>
<li>Cheetah Templates and "<em>mixins</em>"</li>
</ul>
<p>This document also operates on the assumption that the reader is at least
somewhat familiar with the basic tenets of object-oriented programming in
Python.</p>
<h2>Cheetah inheriting from Python</h2>
<p>Whether or not you are aware of it, Cheetah templates are always inheriting from
a Python class by default. Unless otherwise denoted, Cheetah templates are compiled
to Python classes that subclass from the Cheetah.Template.Template class.</p>
<pre><code>import Cheetah.Template
class CookbookTemplate(Cheetah.Template.Template):
_page = 'Cookbook'
author = 'R. Tyler Ballance'
def pageName(self):
retutn self._page or 'Unknown'
</code></pre>
<p>End</p>
