How do you send a function from a view to a Jinja2 template?

[Rosciuc Bogdan]

Hello all,

Pretty much what the title says. I've been trying to send a function I have created in a view to a Jinja2 template and I can't figure it out how. Could you please help me with this... an example may be useful as well.

Thank you,

Bogdan

You send a function just like any other object. By returning it as the
value in a dictionary.

python:
def hello_fn(name):
return 'Hello ' + name

return {
'hello': hello_fn,
}

jinja2:
{{ hello('bob') }}

Thaks a lot. I've been using a different method (declaring the view as a class) but I will give this one a try as well as it seems less 'complicated'.
