class ContextReference(Expr):

View In Hierarchy

Returns the current template context. It can be used like a Name node, with a 'load' ctx and will return the current ~jinja2.runtime.Context object.

Here an example that assigns the current template name to a variable named foo:

Assign(Name('foo', ctx='store'),
       Getattr(ContextReference(), 'name'))

This is basically equivalent to using the ~jinja2.pass_context decorator when using the high-level API, which causes a reference to the context to be passed as the first argument to a function.

Inherited from Expr:

Method as​_const Return the value of the expression as constant or raise Impossible if this was not possible.
Method can​_assign Check if it's possible to assign something to this node.

Inherited from Node (via Expr):

Method find Find the first node of a given type. If no such node exists the return value is None.
Method find​_all Find all the nodes of a given type. If the type is a tuple, the check is performed for any of the tuple items.
Method iter​_child​_nodes Iterates over all direct child nodes of the node. This iterates over all fields and yields the values of they are nodes. If the value of a field is a list all the nodes in that list are returned.
Method iter​_fields No summary
Method set​_ctx No summary
Method set​_environment Set the environment for all nodes.
Method set​_lineno Set the line numbers of the node and children.
