Installing bootlace

Install bootlace with pip:

Using Bootlace

Bootlace depends on bootstrap, which must currently be installed separately.

Individual bootlace components generally don’t require any additional installation.

Using bootlace will require that your website loads the bootstrap CSS and javascript assets. Bootlace relies on dominate to render HTML tags, and provides two primary utility functions, as_tag() and render() to help you do this:

from bootlace import as_tag, render
from bootlace.icon import Icon

# Create a bootstrap icon
icon = Icon('home')

# Convert the icon to a dominate tag
icon_tag = as_tag(icon)

# Render the icon tag to a string
icon_html = render(icon_tag)

print(icon_html)
