Display tomorrow's date in Django template

Question

I want to display tomorrow's date. I am using a generic ListView.

Today's date is easy via:

{% now "jS F Y H:i" %}

Answer 1

Hope this solution will be also helpful. In your template tag register new template

import datetime
register = template.Library()

@register.filter()
def addDays(days):
   newDate = datetime.date.today() + datetime.timedelta(days=days)
   return newDate

Then in template you can use it in a different way like:

• {{ 1|addDays }} - for tommorow
• {{ 7|addDays }} - for next week
• {{ 3|addDays|date:"Y-m-d" }} - for 3 days from now with date format "Y-m-d"
• {{ -1|addDays }} - for yesterday... etc.

Answer 2

A custom template tag would do the trick here.

from django import template
from datetime import datetime

register = template.Library()

@register.simple_tag
def tomorrow(format):
    tomorrow = datetime.date.today() + datetime.timedelta(days=1)
    return tomorrow.strftime(format)

Remember to use the format as followed by datetime module in python.

Then in template

{% tomorrow "%Y-%m-%d %H:%M" %}
