Can $context be acessible in Template?

[macedd]

A use case needs to have the whole context in a variable. Is it possible currently?

{{ context.length }}
{% for k,v in context %}

Interesting idea, I don't think the context object should be exposure inside the context object. (If that makes any sense)

May be expose some of meta data that describe the context object. Ex. Length, stack...

Can you explain further what is the actual use cases?

Actually cant find exactly how it would be usefull.. sorry. I ended implementing the template in another way.

In the time what looked feasible was to pass a context variable which had the other ones, by ref.

Your idea of Length and Stack would solve (on my mindset) if Context Resolver could handle dynamic variable names, like {% for var in context.stack %} {{ :var }} {% endfor %}

Example 1: To encode the context (a query) into json

• so easily pass data to the next page
• make javascript decisions uppon the context
• no need to print each field and control their additions

Example 2: to render a sub-template with the same context

{% render 'app/table.html', context %}

You can checkout the include tag that uses the current context.
