870486 - Snippets Refactor: Build snippet templates

Status: RESOLVED FIXED

(Snippets :: Service, defect)

Description

[Justin Crawford [:hoosteeno] [:jcrawford]]

"Snippet templates" are a standard library of snippet types that can be quickly customized to create a new snippet of a particular type.

This bug requires the creation and modification of administrative interfaces:
* We need interface(s) to create/update/delete templates
* We need the capability to choose a template when creating a snippet

Fix Bug 870486: Add snippet templates.

Adds a model SnippetTemplate, which contains a jinja2 template that is
used to render a snippet. Info about the variables available in the
template is stored as SnippetTemplateVariables.

The Snippet admin now presents a widget that lets admins choose which
template to use, and shows them fields for filling in the variables
from the template. When rendered, the snippets render the template,
passing in the data entered in the admin to generate the output.
