Django模板不适用于布尔值？

Question

I have the following template that only should activate when test is true .

{% if test %}
  <h1>The value of test was {{ test }} </h1>
{% endif %}

In views.py, test is being set to false . However, in the resulting html, I see the phrase that The value of test was false . How can I instead only get this template to activate when test is true ?

Answer 1

Pass the Boolean False instead of the string "false" . You can tell which one you're passing by seeing whether {{ test }} is being displayed as False , in which case it's a boolean, or false , in which case you're passing a string.
