[django] Django {% with %} tags within {% if %} {% else %} tags?

So I want to do something like follows:

{% if age > 18 %}
    {% with patient as p %}
{% else %}
    {% with patient.parent as p %}
    ...
{% endwith %}
{% endif %}

But Django is telling me that I need another {% endwith %} tag. Is there any way to rearrange the withs to make this work, or is the syntactic analyzer purposefully carefree in regards to this sort of thing?

Maybe I'm going about this the wrong way. Is there some sort of best practice when it comes to something like this?

This question is related to django templates with-statement if-statement

The answer is


Like this:

{% if age > 18 %}
    {% with patient as p %}
    <my html here>
    {% endwith %}
{% else %}
    {% with patient.parent as p %}
    <my html here>
    {% endwith %}
{% endif %}

If the html is too big and you don't want to repeat it, then the logic would better be placed in the view. You set this variable and pass it to the template's context:

p = (age > 18 && patient) or patient.parent

and then just use {{ p }} in the template.
