I’m consuming messages from Kafka in JSON format. I get the name and surname from the Kafka message. I want to insert name and surname variables in the HTML email template to send emails to our customers with their names and surnames. I tried formatting but there are a lot of curly brackets. Is there a way to do it?

I tried this code:
with open("index.html", "w") as f:
f.write("<html><body>")
f.write("<h1>Header</h1>")
input = "name surname"
f.write("<p>{}</p>".format(input))
f.write("</body></html>")
But this code overwrites everything.
>Solution :
Start with the template HTML, and inject your desired HTML into it
For example,
Step 1. Read the template html into a string, such as template.
Step 2. Ensure the template contains a unique piece of text that won’t occur more than once. In your case perhaps the <span class="preheader" ... /span>
Step 3. Replace that text with your desired text:
output = template.replace('<span class="preheader"> blah blah</span>', "<p>{}</p>".format(input))
Step 4. Output your updated HTML
with open("index_output.html", "w") as f:
f.write(output)
