A Django filter to walk the file system tree. Convenient to include all your angular templates !

gistfile1.py

import os
import fnmatch
from django import template

register = template.Library()

@register.filter(is_safe=False)
def walk(top_path, glob='*'):
    """
    Generate a list of filepath that match the `glob` pattern by walking
    the tree top-down starting from `top_path`.
    The filepath is relative to `top_path`.

    For example to include all the angular templates in "myproject/templates/angular":

    {% for filepath in "myproject/templates/angular"|walk:"*.html" %}
        <script id="{{ filepath }}" type="text/ng-template">{% include "angular/"|add:filepath %}</script>
    {% endfor %}

    might render as :

    <script id="user/dashboard.tmpl.html" type="text/ng-template">{% include "angular/user/dashboard.tmpl.html" %}</script>
    <script id="user/profile/summary.tmpl.html" type="text/ng-template">{% include "angular/user/profile/summary.tmpl.html" %}</script>
    <script id="user/profile/edit.tmpl.html" type="text/ng-template">{% include "angular/user/profile/edit.tmpl.html" %}</script>

    Notice that `top_path` is relative to the django 'manage.py' path.
    """
    for root, dirs, files in os.walk(top_path):
        for file in fnmatch.filter(files, glob):
            yield os.path.relpath(os.path.join(root, file), top_path)
