How do I include a HTML file in a Jinja2 template?

Question

I am using Flask micro-framework for my server which uses Jinja templates.

I have a parent template.html and some children templates called child1.

Answer 1

You can use the include statement.

Answer 2

Use the jinja2 {% include %} directive.

{% extends 'template.html' %}
{% block content %}
    {% if task == 'content1' %}
        {% include 'content1.html' %}
    {% endif %}
    {% if task == 'content2' %}
        {% include 'content2.html' %}
    {% endif %}
{% endblock %}

This will include the content from the correct content-file.
