To create our own custom template tags we have to define a Node subclass which implements a render method.

Example from https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/2.2/howto/custom-template-tags/#auto-escaping-considerations

import datetime  from django import template    class CurrentTimeNode(template.Node):      def __init__(self, format_string):          self.format_string = format_string        def render(self, context):          return datetime.datetime.now().strftime(self.format_string)

It seems the context parameter for the render function is a 'context object' and not a 'request context object'.  Indeed this section of the same article seems to support this - To create our own custom template tags we have to define a Node subclass which implements a render method.

Anyway when I followed the example and printed the context object it looks to be a request object.  Is this a bug?  I'm using the latest django.
