Expand a Jinja2 template file, for example to test different combinations of whitespace trimming.

JinjaTest -- Simple Jinja2 Template Expander

This is a simple Jinja2 template expander, it reads a template file and prints the expanded template to stdout. One use of this is to quickly iterate, testing combinations of whitespace trimming for a desired result.

Variables can be provided using command-line arguments.

Examples

#  template with variables set in the Jinja2 environment
$ jinjatest --set user=sean --json '{"group_names": ["dev", "stg"]}' template.j2
[...]
#  Template from stdin
$ date | jinjatest -
[...]
