GroupBy Date

[dvonessen]

Hi,

I have a project, which never releases a version, but I want to keep a changelog. I want to group by date in format %Y-%m-%d.
All commits made on the same day should get grouped together. How can I accomplish that?

Regards

Hello!

This definitely needs the group_by filter from Tera. You can see a similar example in the docs.

However our commit context does not have a year attribute. (We have timestamp). For convenience it would be a good idea to add year, day, and month as well I guess. So the final filter can look like;

{% for group, commits in commits | group_by(attribute="year") %}

{% endfor %}

One workaround would be to add the year as an additional data to the context, similar to described here.

I would be happy to add the year into the context though since it's more straightforward. Can you open an issue about it?
