Django Nested Tags

Question

I use the QR code library (Django), and when I do {% qrcode_from_text "{% url 'foo' %}" "l" %}, the internal tag gives an error. Is there any way to make such nested django template tags? Thank.

No, but you don’t need it. The tag urlhas syntax for storing the result in a variable:

{% url 'foo' as foo_url %}

and you can use it in your custom tag:

{% qrcode_from_text foo_url %}
