Alias attribute in a django template

Question

Could we make an alias on an attribute in a django template? I think this is not work, but I tried {% loan.customer as customer %} .

Thanks!

Answer 1

You probably want the with template tag.

{% with loan.customer as customer %}     
    <div>{{customer}}</div>
{% endwith %}

this is old style but still supported see the django documentation for new style and more info.

For now, New style

{% with customer=loan.customer %}
