templates - Use 'now' in django blocktrans? -

i'd add year django blocktrans - using syntax below.

{% blocktrans now|date:"y" copydate %}      &copy; {{ copydate }} company {% endblocktrans %}

this similar existing django ticket (http://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/3088), apparently should work can't work either.

in both cases tag not expanded, rest of blocktrans renders fine.

the way date in python , use date filter reiner proposes or define own templatetag. can create little context processors set date in context.

def my_date(request):   import datetime   return {'my_date':datetime.datetime.now()}

and add in settings.py

template_context_processors = default_settings.template_context_processors + (       'the_package_of_my_tiny_function.my_date',       )

use in templates this:

   {% blocktrans my_date|date:"y" copydate %}       © {{ copydate }} company    {% endblocktrans %}

don't forget pass requestcontext context_instance in views

here example.
