## About

Inlining CSS is necessary for email generation and sending
but is currently a suprisingly large hassle.

This library aims to make it a breeze in the Django
template language.

## Usage

#### Step 1: Dependencies

- BeautifulSoup
- cssutils
- Python 2.6+
- Django 1.4+

#### Step 2: Install django_inlinecss

Add ```django_inlinecss``` to your ```settings.py```:

```python
INSTALLED_APPS = (
'django.contrib.auth',
'django.contrib.webdesign',
'django.contrib.contenttypes',
'...',
'...',
'...',
'django_inlinecss')
```

#### Step 3: Use the templatetag

1. Place your CSS file somewhere staticfiles can find it
2. Create your template:

```html
{% load inlinecss %}
{% inlinecss "css/extra-padding.css" %}
<html>
<body>
<div class='lots-o-padding'>
Something in need of styling.
</div>
</body>
</html>
{% endinlinecss %}
```

#### Step 4: Prepare to be Wowed

```html
<html>
<body>
<div style="padding-left: 10px; padding-right: 10px; padding-top: 10px;" class="lots-o-padding">
Something in need of styling.
</div>
</body>
</html>
```
