Usage of local variables in the template

[denis-itskovich]

Can local variables be defined and used in the template?

I tried to use template as simple as following:

@a = 1
@a

and expected that the produced output will be 1, but it failed with the error: NameError: global name 'a' is not defined

Locally, I added a unit test, reproducing this issue:

def testSimpleLocalVariable(self):
  self.assertEquals("1", pyrazor.Render("@a=1\n@a\n"))

Am I missing something?

Probably a bit late now but you could probably do

@: a = 1 @a

Creating inline support would need to be added.

The usage is wrong! when you wrote @a = 1 it's equal to @(a) = 1. "= 1" is text and "a" is a local variable. what you actually needs is @(a = 1) and pyrazor do not support parenthesis yet.
