flask.get_template_attribute¶

flask.get_template_attribute(template_name, attribute)[source]¶

Loads a macro (or variable) a template exports. This can be used to invoke a macro from within Python code. If you for example have a template named _cider.html with the following contents:

{% macro hello(name) %}Hello {{ name }}!{% endmacro %}

You can access this from Python code like this:

hello = get_template_attribute('_cider.html', 'hello')
return hello('World')

New in version 0.2.

Parameters:	template_name – the name of the template attribute – the name of the variable of macro to access
