Filters

• Values of the variables can be modified by filters.
• Pipe symbol is used for Filters to seperate the variable.
• single variable can have multiple filters.

• In multiple filters, the output of one filter is applied as input to the next filter.

• Below example shows a single filter in action:

Template:

• course name: {{ course_name | capitalize }}

Data:

• course_name: mad1

Output:

• Course name: Mad1

• Charecter M is capitalized

• We passed course_name variable to capitalize filter.

• As the name of the filter suggests, First charecter of the string is capitalized.

• The code for above example is given below

python code with filters

from jinja2 import Template

template = "Course {{ name | capitalize }} is available {{ type }} in the {{ site }} datacenter."

data = {
    "name": "mad1",
    "type": "Programming course"
    "site": "IITM",
}

j2_template = Template(template)

print(j2_template.render(data))

Output

• Course Mad1 is available Programming course in the IITM datacenter.
