Macros
These macros have been defined programmatically for this environment (module or pluglets).
| Variable | Type | Content |
|---|---|---|
| { context: ''' Function: (obj: dict = None) *Default Mkdocs-Macro*: List an object (by default the variables) ''' macros_info: ''' Function: () *Test/debug function*: list useful documentation on the mkdocs_macro environment. ''' now: ''' Function: () *Default Mkdocs-Macro*: Get the current time (at the moment of the project build). It returns a datetime object. Used alone, it provides a timestamp. To get the year use `now().year`, for the month number `now().month`, etc. ''' fix_url: ''' Function: (url) If url is relative, fix it so that it points to the docs directory. This is necessary because relative links in markdown must be adapted in html ('img/foo.png' => '../img/img.png').

Plugin Filters
These filters are provided as a standard by the macros plugin.
| Variable | Type | Content |
|---|---|---|
| pretty | function | (var_list, rows, header, e) Default Mkdocs-Macro: Prettify a dictionary or object (used for environment documentation, or debugging). |
| relative_url | function | (path) Default Mkdocs-Macro: convert the path of any page according to MkDoc's internal logic, into a URL relative to the current page (implements the |
Builtin Jinja2 Filters
These filters are provided by Jinja2 as a standard.
See also the Jinja2 documentation on builtin filters.
| Variable | Type | Content |
|---|---|---|
| abs | builtin_function_or_method | Return the absolute value of the argument. |
| attr | function | (environment, obj, name) Get an attribute of an object. |
| batch | function | (value, linecount, fill_with, tmp, item) A filter that batches items. It works pretty much like |
| capitalize | function | (s) Capitalize a value. The first character will be uppercase, all others lowercase. |
| center | function | (value, width) Centers the value in a field of a given width. |
| count | builtin_function_or_method | Return the number of items in a container. |
| d | function | (value, default_value, boolean) If the value is undefined it will return the passed default value, otherwise the value of the variable. |
| default | function | (value, default_value, boolean) If the value is undefined it will return the passed default value, otherwise the value of the variable. |
| dictsort | function | (value, case_sensitive, by, reverse, sort_func) Sort a dict and yield (key, value) pairs. Python dicts may not be in the order you want to display them in, so sort them first. |
| e | function | (s) Replace the characters |
| escape | function | (s) Replace the characters |
| filesizeformat | function | (value, binary, bytes, base, prefixes, i, prefix, unit) Format the value like a 'human-readable' file size (i.e. 13 kB, 4.1 MB, 102 Bytes, etc). Per default decimal prefixes are used (Mega, Giga, etc.), if the second parameter is set to |
| first | function | (args, kwargs, b) Return the first item of a sequence. |
| float | function | (value, default) Convert the value into a floating point number. If the conversion doesn't work it will return |
| forceescape | function | (value) Enforce HTML escaping. This will probably double escape variables. |
| format | function | (value, args, kwargs) Apply the given values to a |
| groupby | function | (args, kwargs, b) Group a sequence of objects by an attribute using Python's :func: |
| indent | function | (s, width, first, blank, newline, rv, lines) Return a copy of the string with each line indented by 4 spaces. The first line and blank lines are not indented by default. |
| int | function | (value, default, base) Convert the value into an integer. If the conversion doesn't work it will return |
| join | function | (args, kwargs, b) Return a string which is the concatenation of the strings in the sequence. The separator between elements is an empty string per default, you can define it with the optional parameter. |
| last | function | (environment, seq) Return the last item of a sequence. |
| length | builtin_function_or_method | Return the number of items in a container. |
| list | function | (args, kwargs, b) Convert the value into a list. If it was a string the returned list will be a list of characters. |
| lower | function | (s) Convert a value to lowercase. |
| items | function | (value) Return an iterator over the |
| map | function | (args, kwargs, b) Applies a filter on a sequence of objects or looks up an attribute. This is useful when dealing with lists of objects but you are really only interested in a certain value of it. |
| min | function | (environment, value, case_sensitive, attribute) Return the smallest item from the sequence. |
| max | function | (environment, value, case_sensitive, attribute) Return the largest item from the sequence. |
| pprint | function | (value) Pretty print a variable. Useful for debugging. |
| random | function | (context, seq) Return a random item from the sequence. |
| reject | function | (args, kwargs, b) Filters a sequence of objects by applying a test to each object, and rejecting the objects with the test succeeding. |
| rejectattr | function | (args, kwargs, b) Filters a sequence of objects by applying a test to the specified attribute of each object, and rejecting the objects with the test succeeding. |
| replace | function | (eval_ctx, s, old, new, count) Return a copy of the value with all occurrences of a substring replaced with a new one. The first argument is the substring that should be replaced, the second is the replacement string. If the optional third argument |
| reverse | function | (value, rv, e) Reverse the object or return an iterator that iterates over it the other way round. |
| round | function | (value, precision, method, func) Round the number to a given precision. The first parameter specifies the precision (default is |
| safe | function | (value) Mark the value as safe which means that in an environment with automatic escaping enabled this variable will not be escaped. |
| select | function | (args, kwargs, b) Filters a sequence of objects by applying a test to each object, and only selecting the objects with the test succeeding. |
| selectattr | function | (args, kwargs, b) Filters a sequence of objects by applying a test to the specified attribute of each object, and only selecting the objects with the test succeeding. |
| slice | function | (args, kwargs, b) Slice an iterator and return a list of lists containing those items. Useful if you want to create a div containing three ul tags that represent columns. |
| sort | function | (environment, value, reverse, case_sensitive, attribute, key_func) Sort an iterable using Python's :func: |
| string | function | (s) Convert an object to a string if it isn't already. This preserves a :class: |
| striptags | function | (value) Strip SGML/XML tags and replace adjacent whitespace by one space. |
| sum | function | (args, kwargs, b) Returns the sum of a sequence of numbers plus the value of parameter 'start' (which defaults to 0). When the sequence is empty it returns start. |

| wordcount | function | (s) Count the words in that string. |
| wordwrap | function | (environment, s, width, break_long_words, wrapstring, break_on_hyphens) Wrap a string to the given width. Existing newlines are treated as paragraphs to be wrapped separately. |
