An experimental tool to check Jinja templates for type errors using Python's type hints. It parses Jinja templates, extracts variable usage, and checks them against provided type information.

• Type Checking for Jinja2 Templates: Validate that variables in your Jinja2 templates match their declared types
• Python Type Hints Integration: Leverage your existing Python type annotations to catch template errors early
• Pre-commit Integration: Built-in pre-commit hook for automated checking
• Flexible Configuration: Customize checking behavior with typja.toml
• Rich Error Reports: Detailed error messages with code snippets and suggestions
• Watch Mode: Monitor templates for changes and run checks automatically

pip install typja

# Check all templates in current directory
typja check

# Run in watch mode
typja watch

# Initialize a new typja.toml configuration
typja init

Create a typja.toml file in your project root with typja init or manually:

[project]
root = "."
paths = ["./models/**/*.py"]
fail_on_warning = false

[environment]
template_dirs = ["./templates"]
include_patterns = ["*.html", "*.jinja", "*.jinja2"]

[linting]
strict = false
prefer_pep604_unions = true
validate_imports = true
validate_variables = true

[errors]
verbosity = "normal"
show_snippets = true
show_hints = true
color = "auto"

Use special Jinja2 comments to declare variable types:

{# typja:var user: User #}
{# typja:var items: list[str] #}
{# typja:var count: int #}

<h1>{{ user.name }}</h1>
<ul>
  {% for item in items %}
    <li>{{ item }}</li>
  {% endfor %}
</ul>

See the examples/fastapi/ directory for a complete FastAPI application with Jinja2 template type checking.

Add to your .pre-commit-config.yaml:

repos:
  - repo: https://github.com/Daniel-Brai/Typja
    rev: v0.1.3
    hooks:
      - id: typja-check
        # With args
        # args: ["--strict", "--fix"]
