How to test for a List in Jinja2?

In Jinja2, you can test if a variable is a list using the list test. You can use the {% if %} block with the is operator to check if a variable is a list. Here's an example:

{% if my_variable is list %} {{ my_variable }} is a list. {% else %} {{ my_variable }} is not a list. {% endif %}

In this example, my_variable is tested to see if it's a list. If it is a list, the first block inside {% if %} is executed, indicating that the variable is a list. If it's not a list, the second block inside {% else %} is executed.

You can replace my_variable with the name of the variable you want to test.

Here's how you can use it within an HTML template:

<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <title>List Test</title> </head> <body> <p> {% if my_variable is list %} {{ my_variable }} is a list. {% else %} {{ my_variable }} is not a list. {% endif %} </p> </body> </html>

This will display a message indicating whether my_variable is a list or not when rendered in a web page.
