------------
Released 2017-11-08
- Added a new extension node called ``OverlayScope`` which can be used
to create an unoptimized scope that will look up all variables from
a derived context.
- Added an ``in`` test that works like the in operator. This can be
used in combination with ``reject`` and ``select``.
- Added ``previtem`` and ``nextitem`` to loop contexts, providing
access to the previous/next item in the loop. If such an item does
not exist, the value is undefined.
- Added ``changed(*values)`` to loop contexts, providing an easy way
of checking whether a value has changed since the last iteration (or
rather since the last call of the method)
- Added a ``namespace`` function that creates a special object which
allows attribute assignment using the ``set`` tag. This can be used
to carry data across scopes, e.g. from a loop body to code that
comes after the loop.
- Added a ``trimmed`` modifier to ``{% trans %}`` to strip linebreaks
and surrounding whitespace. Also added a new policy to enable this
for all ``trans`` blocks.
- The ``random`` filter is no longer incorrectly constant folded and
will produce a new random choice each time the template is rendered.
:pr:`478`
- Added a ``unique`` filter. :pr:`469`
- Added ``min`` and ``max`` filters. :pr:`475`
- Added tests for all comparison operators: ``eq``, ``ne``, ``lt``,
``le``, ``gt``, ``ge``. :pr:`665`
- ``import`` statement cannot end with a trailing comma. :pr:`617`,
:pr:`618`
- ``indent`` filter will not indent blank lines by default. :pr:`685`
- Add ``reverse`` argument for ``dictsort`` filter. :pr:`692`
- Add a ``NativeEnvironment`` that renders templates to native Python
types instead of strings. :pr:`708`
- Added filter support to the block ``set`` tag. :pr:`489`
- ``tojson`` filter marks output as safe to match documented behavior.
:pr:`718`
- Resolved a bug where getting debug locals for tracebacks could
modify template context.
- Fixed a bug where having many ``{% elif ... %}`` blocks resulted in
a "too many levels of indentation" error. These blocks now compile
to native ``elif ..:`` instead of ``else: if ..:`` :issue:`759`
