jinja2.sandbox.ImmutableSandboxedEnvironment.compile_templates¶

ImmutableSandboxedEnvironment.compile_templates(target, extensions=None, filter_func=None, zip='deflated', log_function=None, ignore_errors=True, py_compile=False)¶

Finds all the templates the loader can find, compiles them and stores them in target. If zip is None, instead of in a zipfile, the templates will be stored in a directory. By default a deflate zip algorithm is used. To switch to the stored algorithm, zip can be set to 'stored'.

extensions and filter_func are passed to list_templates(). Each template returned will be compiled to the target folder or zipfile.

By default template compilation errors are ignored. In case a log function is provided, errors are logged. If you want template syntax errors to abort the compilation you can set ignore_errors to False and you will get an exception on syntax errors.

If py_compile is set to True .pyc files will be written to the target instead of standard .py files. This flag does not do anything on pypy and Python 3 where pyc files are not picked up by itself and don’t give much benefit.

New in version 2.4.
