python - How to escape {{ or }} in django template?

Question

Django treats {{ var }} as some variable in its template. How can I escape {{ var }} or {{ or }} such that django does not treat it as variable.

<p>"{{ some text }}"</p> Should prints exactly the same.

Answer 1

Django 1.5 introduced {% verbatim %} template tag. It stops template from parsing contents of this tag:

{% verbatim %}
    {{ var }}
{% endverbatim %}

will be rendered as:

{{ var }}
