Nested Django tags

Question

I am using the QR code (Django) library and when I do {% qrcode_from_text "{% url 'foo' %}" "l" %}, the inner tag gives error. Is there any way to do such nested django template tags? Thanks.

No, but you don't need to. The url tag has a syntax to save the result to a variable:

{% url 'foo' as foo_url %}

and you can then use that in your custom tag:

{% qrcode_from_text foo_url %}
