Allow referring to root context with .

[rossmacarthur]

This could be useful if the root context is not a map, see #22.

There are some questions here though because the root context is not a single map but rather multiple scopes containing values. This would require copying the entire context which could potentially be expensive.

Has this feature been released? @rossmacarthur
How should I use the variables passed from the parent template?

parent:

{% include "text-format" with node.children %}

child:

{% for child in . %}
{% if child.category.type | eq: "Text" %}
{{ child.category.text }}
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}

error:

invalid syntax

  --> text-format:1:17
   |
 1 | {% for child in . %}
   |                 ^--
   |
   = reason: expected expression, found member access operator

It hasn't been implemented. You will have to pass node to the sub template right now.

{% include "text-format" with node %}

{% for child in children %}
{% if child.category.type | eq: "Text" %}
{{ child.category.text }}
{% endif %}
{% endfor %}
