Coffin is a Jinja2 adapter for Django. Coffin currently makes the following Django tags available in Jinja:
- {% cache %} - has currently an incompatibility: The second argument (the fragment name) needs to be specified with surrounding quotes if it is supposed to be a literal string, according to Jinja2 syntax. It will otherwise be considered an identifier and resolved as a variable.
- {% load %} - is actually a no-op in Coffin, since templatetag libraries are always loaded. See also “Custom Filters and extensions”.
- {% spaceless %}
- {% url %} - additionally, a view|url() filter is also available. Or use view|url() for Django 1.5 style lookups by the value of view.
- {% with %}
- {% csrf_token %}

- date
