-{{tag>howto python django snippets}}+===== Live Preview in Geany ===== 
 + 
 +Using the great //Web helper// plugin (from the [[http://plugins.geany.org|Geany-Plugins]] package) 
 +you can view and test your site directly in Geany without switching to an external browser. 
 + 
 +Simply enable the //Web helper// plugin in Geany's plugin manager dialog, open it preferences dialog 
 +and enable the option "Browser auto reload" (to automatically reload the page when you save a file in Geany). 
 + 
 +Then you will get a new tab "Web preview" in the left message window (or whereever you configured the plugin 
 +to show up) and you can enter any weg page address, e.g. those of your currently edited Django project. 
 +Below is a screenshot demonstrating the plugin: the opened web page on the left, the template code on the right 
 +and in the terminal window at the bottom, Django's runserver command is running: 
 + 
 +{{ :howtos:geany_webhelper_django.png?550 |}} 
 + 
 +This way you can edit your Django and template code in Geany as usual and have it automatically shown 
 +as web page in the //Web helper// plugin without the need of switching to an external browser, and 
 +the Django debug server can also be ran in Geany, using the embedded terminal. 
 + 
 + 
 +===== Twig/Symfony2 Support ===== 
 + 
 +If you want to add detection/highlighting of [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Twig_%28template_engine%29|Twig/Symfony2]] files (based on Django's templates) when opening in Geany, add ''*.html.twig'' to the ''HTML'' key in the ''filetype_extensions.conf'' file. For more information on ''filetype_extensions.conf'', see the [[http://www.geany.org/manual/dev/index.html#filetype-extensions|Filetype extensions section]] of the [[http://www.geany.org/manual/current/index.html|Geany User Manual]].
