Question

I am using jinja2 with my django application, I am working on porting some existing django templates over to jinja2. For the most part I am not having any issues; however, I have a statement like so in one of my django templates:

{% blocktrans %}
  <p>Some stuff here</p>
{% endblocktrans %}

This causes jinja2 to become very unhappy. I have looked far and wide to see if there is an equivalent of the “blocktrans” tag for jinja2. All I can find is that enabling gettext let’s you use:

{{ trans("Some String") }}

This is useful for short strings like in the title tag, but not for blocks. What am I missing, any help would be appreciated!

Answer 1

Use {% trans %} and its complement {% endtrans %} once the i18n extension is enabled.
