How to add custom filters

From the nunjucks documentation at http://jlongster.github.io/nunjucks/templating.html#filters:

Filters are essentially functions that can be applied to variables. They are called with a pipe operator (|) and can take arguments.

For more information on how to write customer Filters, take a look at the API documentation page at: http://jlongster.github.io/nunjucks/api#custom-filters

To use customer filters with wintersmith, put the filter in its own file stored in a filters directory. The filename has to be the name of the filter + '.js'.

so if your filter is in './filters/myfirstfilter.js' add a nunjucks section like this to your config.json:

"nunjucks": {
    "filterdir": "filters",
    "filters": ["myfirstfilter"]
}

It will be available in your templates at 'myfirstfilter'

Filters that are already packaged in modules (like for example nunjucks-date) can be loaded by specifying them like this in your config.json, if they export an install-method:

"nunjucks": {
    "filtermodules": "nunjucks-date"
}

this specific filter would then be available as date in your templates.

Autoescaping

As of nunjucks 2 autoescaping was turned on by default. This plugin reverts that since autoescaping is not usually wanted when used in a static site generator. If you want to change behaviour for some reason you can control it with the autoescape option in your config.json.

"nunjucks": {
    "autoescape": true
}
