This little library contains extensions for jinja2 that add template tags to jinja2 that your are used to from django templates.
To use the tags, just run setup.py install and add the extensions to your TEMPLATES settings:
TEMPLATES = [
{
'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.jinja2.Jinja2',
'DIRS': [],
'APP_DIRS': True,
'OPTIONS': {
'extensions': [
'jdj_tags.extensions.DjangoStatic',
'jdj_tags.extensions.DjangoI18n',
]
},
},
}If you want all tags at once use jdj_tags.extensions.DjangoCompat in the extensions Option.
The {% csrf_token %} tag comes with jdj_tags.extensions.DjangoCsrf.
The i18n tags are defined in jdj_tags.extensions.DjangoI18n.
The extension also tries to localize variables (such as dates and numbers) if
USE_L10N is set in django settings.
{% trans %} works as it does in django:
Simple example: {% trans 'Hello World' %}
{% trans "I was saved to a variable!" as translated_var %}
Save to a variable: {{ translated_var }}
Translation with context:
{% trans 'Hello World' context 'second hello world example' %}
Noop translation: {% trans "Please don't translate me!" noop %}{% blocktrans %} currently doesn't support the count argument, but
everything else works:
Simple example: {% blocktrans %}Hello World!{% endblocktrans %}
Variables:
{% url 'my_view' as my_url %}
{% blocktrans with my_upper_url=my_url|upper %}
Normal url: {{ my_url }}
Upper url: {{ my_upper_url }}
{% endblocktrans %}
Trim whitespace:
{% blocktrans trimmed %}
Trim those
pesky newlines.
{% endblocktrans %}You also can use _, gettext and pgettext directly:
Simple example: {{ _('Hello World') }}
More verbose: {{ gettext('Hello World') }}
With context: {{ pgettext('Hello World', 'another example') }}The {% static %} comes with jdj_tags.extensions.DjangoStatic.
It works the same as in Django:
My static file: {% static 'my/static.file' %}
{% static 'my/static.file' as my_file %}
My static file in a var: {{ my_file }}The {% url %} is defined in jdj_tags.extensions.DjangoUrl.
It works as it does in django, therefore you can only specify either
args or kwargs:
Url with args: {% url 'my_view' arg1 "string arg2" %}
Url with kwargs: {% url 'my_view' kwarg1=arg1 kwarg2="string arg2" %}
Save to variable:
{% url 'my_view' 'foo' 'bar' as my_url %}
{{ my_url }}
