Assign variables to child template in {% include %} tag Django

django, django-templates, html, include, variables

Solution

Like @Besnik suggested, it's pretty simple:

{% include "subject_file_upload.html" with form=form foo=bar %}

The documentation for `include` mentions this. It also mentions that you can use `only` to render the template with the given variables only, without inheriting any other variables.

Thank you @Besnik

Problem

I have this code(which doesn't give me expected result) ``` #subject_content.html {% block main-menu %} {% include "subject_base.html" %} {% endblock %} #subject_base.html .... .... <div id="homework" class="tab-section"> <h2>Homework</h2> {% include "subject_file_upload.html" %} </div> ``` child template: ``` #subject_file_upload.html <form action="." method="post" enctype="multipart/form-data">{% csrf_token %} {{ form.as_p }} <input type="submit" value="submit"> </form> ``` and my view ``` #views.py @login_required def subject(request,username, subject): if request.method == "POST": form = CarsForm(request.POST, request.FILES) if form.is_valid(): form.save() return HttpResponseRedirect("/") form = CarsForm() return render_to_response('subject_content.html', {'form':form}, context_instance=RequestContext(request)) ``` The above code creates HTML in the way I want it to be, however the form does not update database. BUT, If I skip the middle template and go directly to the uploading form, it works fine: ``` #subject_content.html {% block main-menu %} {% include "subject_file_upload.html" %} {% endblock %} ``` Help me please to make it work with middle template. I want to do this, because I don't wan't to type the same code more than once.
