parent

The parent function is used inside of a block to render the content that the parent template would have rendered inside of the block had the current template not overridden it. It is similar to Java's super keyword.

Let's assume you have a template, "parent.peb" that looks something like this:

{% block "content" %}
    parent contents
{% endblock %}

And then you have another template, "child.peb" that extends "parent.peb":

{% extends "parent.peb" %}

{% block "content" %}
    child contents
    {{ parent() }}
{% endblock %}

The output will look something like the following:

parent contents
child contents
