Full documentation +can be found at https://jinja.palletsprojects.com/en/ (the ‘Template +Designer Documentation’ is the relevant part for people looking to +edit the templates, it’s not linked directly here to avoid embedding +version numbers in the links). + +The particular instance of Jinja2 used has the following configuration +differences from the defaults: + +- Any instances of curly braces in are replaced with square brackets + (so instead of `{{ variable }}`, the syntax used here is `[[ variable + ]]`. This is done so that templating commands for the frontend can be + included without having to do any special escaping for them. +- `trim_blocks` and `lstrip_blocks` are both enabled, meaning that + the first newline after a block will be _removed_, as will any leading + whitespace on the same line as a block. + +Each markdown template corresponds to the key of the same name in the +integrations objects in that file. Those templates get passed the +integration data using the name `entry`, plus the composed related +resource data using the name `rel_res`. + +The `integrations.js` template is used to compose the final file. It gets +passed the JSON-formatted category and integration data using the names +`categories` and `integrations` respectively. |
