Django - How to do tuple unpacking in a template 'for' loop

Question

In my views.py, I\'m building a list of two-tuples, where the second item in the tuple is another list, like this:

[ Product_Type_1, [ product_1, product_2 ]         


        

Answer 1

Another way is as follows.

If one has a list of tuples say:

mylst = [(a, b, c), (x, y, z), (l, m, n)]

then one can unpack this list in the template file in the following manner. In my case I had a list of tuples which contained the URL, title, and summary of a document.

{% for item in mylst %}    
     {{ item.0 }} {{ item.1}} {{ item.2 }}    
{% endfor %}
