About:
minijinja-cli is a command-line utility that renders Jinja2 templates using the minijinja engine. It allows you to pass JSON data to templates for generating configuration files, reports, or dynamic content. This tool provides a lightweight, dependency-free way to process templates directly in the terminal.
Key Features:
  • Renders Jinja2 templates from stdin or files
  • Accepts JSON data for template context via arguments or files
  • Fast and lightweight with minimal dependencies
  • Cross-platform support
Use Cases:
  • Generating dynamic configuration files from templates
  • Creating boilerplate code or project scaffolding
  • Formatting JSON data into readable reports or logs
Alternatives:
  • jq – jq is for JSON processing, while minijinja-cli renders templates using JSON data
  • envsubst – envsubst only handles environment variables; minijinja-cli supports full Jinja2 syntax
