Hello World

This example just asks you to input the value for a variable named var_name and returns this value as string ‘Hello <data you typed in>’ Just to show you that python and jinja2 are handled totally equal, this example is written in both languages.

Hello {{ var_name }}

Run The Task Via CLI

run the python task

jinjamator -t <path to examples>/01-hello-world-minimal/python

run the jinja2 task

jinjamator -t <path to examples>/01-hello-world-minimal/jinja2

Run The Task Via WebGUI

To start the daemon run jinjamator with following command.

jinjamator --task-base-dir <path to examples>  -d -vvv

Then open a browser and open http://localhost:5000

run the python task

../../_images/hello_world_python.gif

run the jinja2 task

../../_images/hello_world_jinja2.gif

as you can see, there is no difference between the output of the python and the jinja2 task.
