There is given a list of array results in format:
result_a, result_b, result_c etc.
A foo and bar are some variables, not strings.
There is need to put macro argument into for loop.
{% macro test(foo, bar) %}
{% for item in results_{{foo}} %}
{% if item[0].name == result_{{foo}}[bar] %}
{{ item }} pass test
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
{% endmacro %}
During calling macro test(a, names) there is error. How to implement argument into {% for block %}.

I have a use case where I would like to define the name of a macro and then apply it to one column.
A simplified example could be as follows. I have two macros defined that I want to call dynamically in my model (both take one column as an input):
cast_to_string
convert_empty_string_to_null_value
Now, I want to call them dynamically. See the example below
{%- set macro_names = ["cast_to_string", "convert_empty_string_to_null_value"] -%}
select
{% for macro_name in macro_names %}
-- this should dynamically be evaluated to `{{ cast_to_string(my_column) }}`
-- and `{{ convert_empty_string_to_null_value(my_column) }}`
{{ macro_name(my_column) }}
{% endfor %}
from my_model
However, this will throw an error saying that a string is not callable.
I also tried using {% raw %} {{ {% endraw %} to escape brackets, but that didn’t work either.
So, my question is, if there is a way to dynamically call macros in jinja/dbt?
I think it should work if you remove the quotes :
{%- set macro_names = [cast_to_string, convert_empty_string_to_null_value] -%}
So that jinja doesn't interpret it as string and you can use it as a Callable
I achieve it using this example :
{%- set macro_names = [print_lower, print_upper] -%}
{% for macro_name in macro_names %}
{{ macro_name("test") }}
{% endfor %}
and
{% macro print_lower(string) %}
{{ print(string|lower) }}
{% endmacro %}
{% macro print_upper(string) %}
{{ print(string|upper) }}
{% endmacro %}
I'd like to use a {% for %} loop in an included file, to avoid repeating logic to create the loop array (it's an assign with multiple where_exps).
But I'd like to use different content depending on where I include the loop, so sometimes I will do this:
{% for i in a %}
<li>{{ i.name }}</li>
{% endfor %}
and sometimes:
{% for i in a %}
<loc>{{ i.url }}</loc>
{% endfor %}
How can I achieve this? So far I have to put each of the inner contents in their own template, so I would have files like below, but I'd like to avoid the extra template files, and just keep that content in the appropriate main file:
html_template.html:
<li>{{ i.name }}</li>
xml_template.xml:
<loc>{{ i.url }}</loc>
page_loop.html:
{% assign a = "logic I don't want to repeat" %}
{% for i in a %}
{% include {{ include.inner_template }} %}
{% endfor %}
html_main.html:
{% include page_loop.html inner_template="html_template.html" %}
xml_main.xml:
{% include page_loop.html inner_template="xml_template.xml" %}
It would probably be another more elegant (?) solution developing a plugin, but quickly modifying your code, in _includes/page_loop.html:
{% assign a = "something" %}
{% for i in a %}
{%if include.type == "name"%}
<li>{{ i.name }}</li>
{%else if include.type == "url"%}
<loc>{{ i.url }}</loc>
{%endif %}
{% endfor %}
Then each time you include page_loop.html pass an additional parameter specifying which type of output you want:
{% include page_loop.html type="name" %}
or
{% include page_loop.html type="url" %}
I'm getting syntax error while trying to generate site. Do you have any ideas what can be wrong here?
Error: Liquid syntax error: Unknown tag 'elsif'
{% if page.title == "Tags" %}
{% for tag in site.tags %}
{% elsif page.title == "Categories" %}
{% for tag in site.categories %}
{% endif %}
{{ tag[0] }}
{% endfor %}
You can't start a loop conditionally like that, control blocks must be properly nested. To accomplish what you're trying to do you could do:
{% if page.title == "Tags" %}
{% assign data = site.tags %}
{% elsif page.title == "Categories" %}
{% assign data = site.categories %}
{% endif %}
{% for tag in data %}
{{ tag[0] }}
{% endfor %}
You have got it all wrong. The nested loops does not work this way.
It should start and end inside the same conditional.
if conditional
for loop
endfor
endif
something like this.
So, the correct way to do it should be this
{% if page.title == "Tags" %}
{% for tag in site.tags %}
{{ tag[0] }}
{% endfor %}
{% elsif page.title == "Categories" %}
{% for tag in site.categories %}
{{ tag[0] }}
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}
This code should do exactly what you want correctly but there is a better approach as answered by JJJ
I rewrite some widgets in bootstrap_3_layout.html.twig and I don't want the form fields to have some attributes while they are rendered.
I've found out the sequence of some widgets
button_widget → button_row → form_widget → widget_attributes
And I made a little change
{% block widget_attributes %}
{% spaceless %}
{# bla-bla-bla #}
{% for attrname, attrvalue in attr %}
{% if attrname in ['placeholder', 'title'] %}
{{ attrname }}="{{ attrvalue|trans({}, translation_domain) }}"
{% elseif attrname not in ['first','last','data-help'] %}
{{ attrname }}="{{ attrvalue }}"
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
{% endspaceless %}
{% endblock widget_attributes %}
But it doesn't work for buttons.
I'm not sure what you are achieving but you can intercept the odd index of a twig loop as follow:
{% for attrname, attrvalue in attr %}
{% if loop.index is odd %}
odd
{% else %}
even
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
More info on loop variable and odd test function.
Hope this help
It's strange, but the form layout in twig_bridge has some widgets to work with attributes.
1. for inputs `widget_attributes`
2. for buttons `button_attributes`
3. for another element `widget_container_attributes`
For each widget, there are next blocks in twig-bridge:
{name_of_widget}_widget - main block to render an element
{name_of_widget}_label
{name_of_widget}_row
And for attributes, there are
widget_attributes
widget_container_attributes
button_attributes
attributes
I just used incorrect one :)
Thank all for your patience.
I want to loop over all items in a collection that have a certain field set (not empty). I tried this:
{% assign papers_with_demos=site.data.papers | where:"demo", not blank %}
{% if papers_with_demos.size > 0 %}
<h2>demos</h2>
{% for paper in papers_with_demos %}]
...
{% endfor %}
{% endif %}
but it does not work; all papers are returned.
My goal is that the heading "demos" will be shown, only if there is one or more paper with a demo.
If papers are being returned, you must be using data files. If a value is empty for a particular key in a data file it will return false. So you could check the data key with a forloop like:
{% for paper in site.data.papers %}
{% if paper.demo %}
something
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
You'll find more info in the Data Files section of the Jekyll documentation.
Updated in response to your reply:
{% for item in site.data.items %}
{% if item.random %}
{% assign random-val = item.random %}
{% if random-val %}
<p>true</p>
{% endif %}
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
This will return true if inside items.yml, you have - random: true, nothing if empty.
