it's pretty doable if you add a new ${thing} to your mako template. getting a
value in there requires a trick, there's an example of it here:
https://github.com/sqlalchemy/alembic/issues/686#issuecomment-616828129
which is to put a dictionary inside of another dictionary and pass that as
"template_args" when you context.configure(); suppose you send it as
template_args={"my_dictionary": {}}. then anywhere you are, in a render hook,
in env.py, whatever, put whatever you want in that dictionary. then reference
in your template as ${my_dictionary['some_value']} .
