django: Invalid filter

I got an article app and trying to make a custom filter, I have a directory called templatetags in article app, and a tags.py within that directory, here is the directory structure.

-manage.py(f)
-settings.py(f)
-articles(d)
 - templatetags(d)
  - tags.py(f)

On the templates, the articles have its own directory, all article templates extend from a base.html template, here is the template structure.

-base.html(f)
-articles(d)
 -index.html(f)

I load the tags in base.html {% load tags %} and use the custom filter in index.html and got the invalid filter error.

tags.py

from django import template                                                                                                                                                        
from django.template.defaultf开发者_JS百科ilters import stringfilter

register = template.Library()

@register.filter
@stringfilter
def space2Dash(s):
    return s.replace(' ', '_');

I just can't figure out what I did wrong.

edit: I changed the filter name to abcfilter.py and I have the article app loaded in my settings.py

articles/index.html

 {% load abcfilter %}
 {{ "foo bar"|space2dash }}

the error:

Just for reference, I solved the problem by moving

{% load ... %}

from the base template to the concrete template. See also this post https://stackoverflow.com/a/10427321/3198502


First off remove the semicolon after your replace.

Do you have a file called __init__.py (this is suppose to have 2 underscores before and after init, hard to format in editor.) under the templatetags directory?

Here is a good page with lots of info if you haven't looked yet.

I was nearly going nuts with this problem and none of the above answers helped.

If you have several apps, make sure that the file names containing your custom tags/filters are unique, prefereablyapp_name_filters.py. Otherwise Django will only load the custom filters from the app it finds matching first!


To avoid loading the module in each template using {% load MODULE_NAME %}, you can add it as a 'builtin' in settings.py:

TEMPLATES = [
    {
        'OPTIONS': {
            ...
            ,
            'builtins': [
                ...
                'APP_NAME.templatetags.MODULE_NAME',
                ]
        },
    },
]
