+Integration
+===========
+
+.. _babel-integration:
+
+Babel
+-----
+
+Jinja provides support for extracting gettext messages from templates
+via a `Babel`_ extractor entry point called
+``jinja2.ext.babel_extract``. The support is implemented as part of the
+:ref:`i18n-extension` extension.
+
+Gettext messages are extracted from both ``trans`` tags and code
+expressions.
+
+To extract gettext messages from templates, the project needs a Jinja
+section in its Babel extraction method `mapping file`_:
+
+.. sourcecode:: ini
+
+    [jinja2: **/templates/**.html]
+    encoding = utf-8
+
+The syntax related options of the :class:`Environment` are also
+available as configuration values in the mapping file. For example, to
+tell the extractor that templates use ``%`` as
+``line_statement_prefix`` you can use this code:
+
+.. sourcecode:: ini
+
+    [jinja2: **/templates/**.html]
+    encoding = utf-8
+    line_statement_prefix = %
+
+:ref:`jinja-extensions` may also be defined by passing a comma separated
+list of import paths as the ``extensions`` value. The i18n extension is
+added automatically.
+
+Template syntax errors are ignored by default. The assumption is that
+tests will catch syntax errors in templates. If you don't want to ignore
+errors, add ``silent = false`` to the settings.

+
+
+Pylons
+------
+
+It's easy to integrate Jinja into a `Pylons`_ application.
+
+The template engine is configured in ``config/environment.py``. The
+configuration for Jinja looks something like this:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    from jinja2 import Environment, PackageLoader
+    config['pylons.app_globals'].jinja_env = Environment(
+        loader=PackageLoader('yourapplication', 'templates')
+    )
+
+After that you can render Jinja templates by using the ``render_jinja``
+function from the ``pylons.templating`` module.
+
+Additionally it's a good idea to set the Pylons ``c`` object to strict
+mode. By default attribute access on missing attributes on the ``c``
+object returns an empty string and not an undefined object. To change
+this add this to ``config/environment.py``:
+
+.. code-block:: python
+
+    config['pylons.strict_c'] = True
+
