For example, you can access the dictionary or array elements. age }} Flow Control Statements The flow control statements allow you to perform check on the variables and select different parts of the template that will be rendered accordingly. You can also use these statements to repeat a piece of the template when generating structures such as tables or lists. in loop statement can iterate through these iterable Python objects, returning one element at a time:

Available products

    {% for item in products %}

  • {{ item }}
  • {% endfor %}

Once in the loop, the following special variables are defined.

In my example I effectively tell the application to “take the packetrate and 4096 and multiply them, take the result and 8 and multiply them”. It takes some time to adjust, but once you get a handle on it, expressing formulas in RPN is really pretty easy. Finally, we need to make the graph even more presentable by adding a label to the y-axis, a legend for the value that we are plotting, and the title for the graph itself. rrd:packets:AVERAGE \ CDEF:kbps=packetrate,4096,\*,8,\* \ AREA:kbps#c0c0c0:"Data transfer rate" The result is shown in Figure 1-5.

You can also provide a resolution setting, which will default to the most detailed resolution if not specified. This is similar to the -r option in the fetch command. The resolution is expressed in seconds. The next line (although you can type the whole graph command in one line) is the selector line, which selects the dataset from an RRDTool database. The format of the selector statement is DEF:< selector name >=< rrd file >:< data source >:< consolidation function > The selector name argument is an arbitrary string, which you use to name the resulting dataset.
