#24538: Rendering a Jinja template with a context containing 'self' fails ---------------------------------+-------------------- Reporter: tim_heap | Owner: nobody Type: Uncategorized | Status: new Component: Template system | Version: 1.8rc1 Severity: Normal | Keywords: Triage Stage: Unreviewed | Has patch: 0 Easy pickings: 0 | UI/UX: 0 ---------------------------------+-------------------- Rendering a DTL template with a context containing a 'self' key works. Attempting the same with a Jinja template fails:
{{{ from django.shortcuts import render def self_test(request): # Assuming that there exists a DTL style template 'dtl.html', # and a Jinja template named 'jinja.html': render(request, 'dtl.html', {'self': 'test'}) # Works render(request, 'jinja.html', {'self': 'test'}) # Fails }}} {{{ Internal Server Error: /self_test/ Traceback (most recent call last): File "/home/vagrant/jinjatest_venv/local/lib/python2.7/site- packages/django/core/handlers/base.py", line 132, in get_response response = wrapped_callback(request, *callback_args, **callback_kwargs) File "/vagrant/jinjatest/views.py", line 6, in self_test render(request, 'jinja.html', {'self': 'test'}) File "/home/vagrant/jinjatest_venv/local/lib/python2.7/site- packages/django/shortcuts.py", line 67, in render template_name, context, request=request, using=using) File "/home/vagrant/jinjatest_venv/local/lib/python2.7/site- packages/django/template/loader.py", line 99, in render_to_string return template.render(context, request) File "/home/vagrant/jinjatest_venv/local/lib/python2.7/site- packages/django/template/backends/jinja2.py", line 63, in render return self.template.render(**context) TypeError: render() got multiple values for keyword argument 'self' }}} The Wagtail CMS uses 'self' as a key when rendering pages. This error means that Wagtail can not be used in combination with Jinja templates. The contents of the templates is irrelevant, and can be blank for testing. -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/24538> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
