#15267: now template tag does not recognize predefined formats ------------------------------------------------+--------------------------- Reporter: creecode@… | Owner: nobody Status: new | Milestone: Component: Template system | Version: 1.2 Keywords: now template tag predefined format | Triage Stage: Unreviewed Has patch: 1 | ------------------------------------------------+--------------------------- The documentation for the now template tag < http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/templates/builtins/#now > says in part...
Given format can be one of the predefined ones DATE_FORMAT, DATETIME_FORMAT, SHORT_DATE_FORMAT or SHORT_DATETIME_FORMAT, or a custom format, same as the date filter. I tried... {% now "DATE_FORMAT" %} ...and get back... WedAMPSTEPST0FebE_February-0800RFebAMPST The predefined format has been processed as a custom format. I have USE_I18N and USE_L10N set to True, and LANGUAGE_CODE is 'en-us' in settings.py. This is happening with Django 1.2.4, 1.2.5 and appears to effect trunk. It appears from a quick glance at the source that the NowNode has no code in place to process the predefined formats. Here is my initial query about this problem on django users < http://groups.google.com/group/django- users/browse_thread/thread/cf80ea434c1112e8/ff21567e65d8ccf6#ff21567e65d8ccf6 >. I have attached a patch which I believe brings the code into sync with the docs. -- Ticket URL: <http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/15267> Django <http://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.
