Jinja2 extension to handle git-specific things

Installation

$ pip install jinja2-git

Reasoning

This plugin is used to render commit hash in jinja2 templates. We are using it to render our template version in cookicutter:

• wemake-django-template
• wemake-vue-template

Usage

Add it as an extension for jinja2 or cookiecutter.

And then inside a template:

from jinja2 import Environment

env = Environment(extensions=['jinja2_git.GitExtension'])
template = env.from_string('Commit is: {% gitcommit %}')
# => Commit is: c644682f4899d7e98147ce3a61a11bb13c52b3a0

Or short version:

from jinja2 import Environment

env = Environment(extensions=['jinja2_git.GitExtension'])
template = env.from_string('Commit is: {% gitcommit short=True %}')
# => Commit is: c644682
