{# title = More About Contexts #} {# foo = 1234.5 #} {# bar = [ 100, 200, "Hello World" ] #} {{ page.title }} {% site_assets %}
{% markdown %} # {{ page.title }} There are two ways to get context into each page. The first is via template comments. Writing {% verbatim %} {# title = More About Context #} {% endverbatim %} at the top of the HTML page will create the variable title that can be used in the page as {% verbatim %}{{ page.title }}{% endverbatim %} to produce: {{page.title}} To add more variables list them one on each line. To add data beyond a simple string use the JSON format: {% code "django-comments" %} Note that in the last example for bar gets turned into python list accessible as {% verbatim %}{{ page.bar }} {% endverbatim %} to produce {{page.bar}}. The {% verbatim %}{{ page.bar }} {% endverbatim %} object can also be looped over with Django to produce: {% for elem in page.bar %} * {{ elem }} {% endfor %} The second method of getting context into a page is a python module named context.py placed in the directory root. This may contain any python construct. The content of this module will be visible under the parameter data {% verbatim %}{{ context }}{% endverbatim %} variable name. {% code "context.py" lang='python' %} We can now access the contenxt of `contex.py` like so {% verbatim %}{{ context.greeting }}{% endverbatim %} to produce: {{ context.greeting }} Go back to: {% link "index.html" "Home Page" %}. {% endmarkdown %}
