# In your mako rendering function, whichever that is,

I'm trying to install this in my project but its not working. I'll give all relevent information.

First in settings.py I have: from jinja2 import Environment env = Environment(extensions=['jinja2.ext.i18n', 'extensions.csrf_token'])

I have csrf token saved in a file in an app on the PYTHONPATH called extensions/csrf_token.py

Next I get this error when I run python manage.py shell:

Traceback (most recent call last): File "manage.py", line 4, in <module> import settings # Assumed to be in the same directory. File "/Volumes/opt/projects/django/sutton.git/sutton/settings.py", line 98, in <module> env = Environment(extensions=['jinja2.ext.i18n', 'extensions.csrf_token']) File "/Volumes/opt/download/_python/_django/jinja2/jinja2/environment.py", line 278, in init self.extensions = load_extensions(self, extensions) File "/Volumes/opt/download/_python/_django/jinja2/jinja2/environment.py", line 76, in load_extensions result[extension.identifier] = extension(environment) TypeError: 'module' object is not callable

I've also tried just using JINJA_EXTS=('extensions.csrf_token') but when I try using {%csrf_token%} in my template I get:

Exception Type: TemplateSyntaxError Exception Value:

Encountered unknown tag 'csrf_token'. Jinja was looking for the following tags: 'endblock'. The innermost block that needs to be closed is 'block'.

The app in which csrf_token.py is located, "extensions" is loaded up in INSTALLED_APPS

Can someone please help me?
