get (id, alt='_primary', page_num=None)This can look up a single Record and return it. In templates this method is particularly useful when having to work with other pages that are well known to the system but some information should be pulled from. Note that this loads by default the "primary" Alternative.
The path needs to be absolute with folder separated by slashes.
The default behavior is to load the unpaginated version of a record. If you
want to select a specific page for pagination, then you need to pass
page_num with a valid page number or you use the virtual path (@1 for the
first page for instance).
This is a simple example that shows how to use the method in a template:
{% set root = site.get('/') %} <title>{{ this.title }} | {{ root.title }}</title>
Here another example that loads the current page but in another language:
{% set other_lang = site.get(this._path, alt='ru') %} <p>This page in Russian: {{ other_lang.title }}
This method can also be used to look up virtual paths. For instance to fetch a specific version of a
pagination you can use a virtual path instead of using the page_num
parameter:
>>> pad.get('/blog@3') <Page model=u'blog' path='/blog' page_num=3>
