One of the things I find myself doing often is passing string literals as parameters to template tags or functions; for instance:
{% url my-url 'my_param' %}
Unfortunately, the django template engine doesn't let you do this. So I find myself doing this a lot in my view code:
my_context_dict['MY_PARAM'] = 'my_param'
and then in my view code:
{% url my-url MY_PARAM %}
Or creating a series of URL mappings, which I personally try to avoid.
Is it possible to use a string literal in Django templates? Or possibly a more elegant solution? I haven't seen anything on here or in the documentation.
