Make sure to import the CSS from npf_renderer.utils.BASIC_LAYOUT_CSS!
with open("basic_layout.css", "w") as file:
file.write(npf_renderer.utils.BASIC_LAYOUT_CSS)<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="basic_layout.css">format_npf will return placeholder HTML for any blocks it doesn't support.
Unsupported blocks
<div class="post-body">
<p class="text-block"> This text block is supported but the next block is not! </p>
<div class="unsupported-content-block">
<div class="unsupported-content-block-message">
<h1>Unsupported content placeholder</h1>
<p>Hello! I'm a placeholder for the unsupported "unsupported" type NPF content block. Please report me!</p>

</div>In the event that it cannot format anything an empty div will be returned
pip install npf-rendererYou can pass in a custom URL handler function to format_npf to replace any links within the NPF tree.
def url_handler(url):
url = urllib.parse.urlparse(url)
if url.hostname.endswith("example.com"):
return url._replace(netloc="other.example.com").geturl()
format_npf(contents, layouts, url_handler=url_handler)As polls require an additional request in order to fetch results, npf-renderer by default can only render a very basic poll without any votes attached.
You can however provide the data necessary for npf-renderer to populate polls by passing in a callback function to format_npf that takes a poll_id argument.
Be sure to have the blog name and the post ID at hand too, as Tumblr's API requires all three to fetch poll results.
The data returned should be in the form:
{
"results": {
// answer_id => vote_count
"9a025e86-2f02-452e-99d3-b4c0fd9afd48": 123,
"fad65faf-06d3-4a24-85a9-47c096ab07e3": 321
},
"timestamp": 1706642448
}Example:
def create_callback(blog_name, post_id)
def poll_callback(poll_id):
initial_results = request_poll_results(blog_name, post_id, poll_id)
return initial_results["response"]
return poll_callback
npf_renderer.format_npf(content, layout, poll_result_callback=create_callback(blog_name, post_id))(True as of master branch)
