Filters #

Various template engines can be extended with custom filters to modify content. Here’s an example:

<!-- Nunjucks and Liquid use the same syntax -->
<h1>{{ name | makeUppercase }}</h1>

This can be added using the Configuration API. Here are a few examples:

Filename .eleventy.js
module.exports = function(eleventyConfig) {
  // Liquid Filter
  eleventyConfig.addLiquidFilter("makeUppercase", function(value) { … });
  
  // Nunjucks Filter
  eleventyConfig.addNunjucksFilter("makeUppercase", function(value) { … });
  
  // Handlebars Filter
  eleventyConfig.addHandlebarsHelper("makeUppercase", function(value) { … });
  
  // or, use a Universal filter (an alias for all of the above)
  eleventyConfig.addFilter("makeUppercase", function(value) { … });
};

Read more about filters on the individual Template Language documentation pages:

Universal Filters #

Universal filters can be added in a single place and are available to multiple template engines, simultaneously. This is currently supported in Nunjucks, Liquid, and Handlebars.

Filename .eleventy.js
module.exports = function(eleventyConfig) {
  // Universal filters (Adds to Liquid, Nunjucks, and Handlebars)
  eleventyConfig.addFilter("myFilter", function(value) {
    return value;
  });
};

Eleventy Provided Universal Filters #

We also provide a few universal filters, built-in:
