I'm not sure there is a better way to do this? But I am using the Jinja2 templating engine with Django, and I originally set this up in Django2-ish? So maybe I missed a better way to do this...
So I have a jinjaenv.py file that simply setups up the environment for the Jinja2 template engine. jinjaenv.py ``` #from __future__ import absolute_import # Python 2 only from jinja2 import Environment from django.contrib.staticfiles.storage import staticfiles_storage from django.urls import reverse from django_icons.templatetags.icons import icon def environment(**options): env = Environment(**options) env.globals.update({ 'static': staticfiles_storage.url, 'url': reverse, 'icon':icon, }) return env ``` And have that in my settings: # https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.1/ref/templates/api/#django.template.loaders.cached.Loader { 'NAME': "Jinja2", "BACKEND": "django_jinja.backend.Jinja2", "APP_DIRS": True, 'DIRS': [TEMPLATE_PATH,], "OPTIONS": {'environment': "quickbbs.jinjaenv.environment", # Match the template names ending in .html but not the ones in the admin folder. "match_extension": ".jinja", "extensions": [ "jinja2.ext.do", "jinja2.ext.loopcontrols", "jinja2.ext.with_", "jinja2.ext.i18n", "jinja2.ext.autoescape", "django_jinja.builtins.extensions.CsrfExtension", "django_jinja.builtins.extensions.CacheExtension", "django_jinja.builtins.extensions.TimezoneExtension", "django_jinja.builtins.extensions.UrlsExtension", "django_jinja.builtins.extensions.StaticFilesExtension", "django_jinja.builtins.extensions.DjangoFiltersExtension", ], "bytecode_cache": { "name": "default", "backend": "django_jinja.cache.BytecodeCache", "enabled": True, }, "autoescape": True, "auto_reload": True, "translation_engine": "django.utils.translation", } }, Is there a better way to do this? It’s a pain to update the environment file… And I can’t tell if the django-icon issue that I’m seeing is due to Jinja2 or not. (I’m 99% sure it isn’t… But) - Benjamin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
