Variables defined in extended template are not visible to base template
Given these two templates (inspiration)
//- base.jade
block vars
h1= message
//- sub.jade
extends ./base.jade
block vars
- var message = "It works!"
jade sub.jade produces
<h1>It works!</h1>
but with pyjade the variable doesn't seem to be visible to base.jade. I've tried django and jinja compiler targets, and just get <h1></h1>.
Jinja test is here: gist.
Is this intentional for pyjade, and does anyone have any alternative ideas? Thanks!
EDIT: I'm going to look into this more, it's likely django's fault.
Intended use case
Many pages extend from base.jade, which defines the <head>, etc. Each subpage has a different title, for example, but these are constant "variables" that shouldn't need to be passed in from django if they could just be defined in the subpage templates themselves.
