# `cube` package

> The cube Python package provides tools for setting configuration options and the Jinja template context for YAML data models.

`cube` package contains tools for setting [configuration
options][ref-config-options] and providing the Jinja template context for
the data model in [YAML][ref-model-syntax].

* `cube` package is available out of the box, it doesn't need to be installed explicitly
* Submit issues to [`cube`][link-cube-repo-issues] on GitHub

## Reference

### `config` object

This object is used to set configuration options in the `cube.py` file.

You can set properties of this object, named after supported [configuration
options][ref-ref-config-options], to values or functions that would be used
as these configuration options.

```python theme={null}
from cube import config

config.base_path = '/cube-api'

config.context_to_app_id = lambda ctx: ctx['securityContext']['tenant_id']

def rewrite(query, ctx):
  query['measures'].append('orders.count')
  return query

config.query_rewrite = rewrite
```

Alternatively, this object can be used as a decorator with a single
`name` argument. In that case, the decorated function will be set as the
configuration option under that `name`.

```python theme={null}
from cube import config

@config('context_to_app_id')
def app_id(ctx):
  return ctx['securityContext']['tenant_id']

@config('query_rewrite')
def rewrite(query, ctx):
  query['measures'].append('orders.count')
  return query
```

### `TemplateContext` class

Instances of this class are used for registering variables, functions, and
filters so that they are accessible from Jinja templates when defining the
data model in YAML.

```python theme={null}
from cube import TemplateContext

template = TemplateContext()
```

#### `add_variable`

The `add_variable` method registers a variable so that it's available in
a Jinja template. Should be called with two arguments, a `name` and a `value`
of the variable.

```python theme={null}
from cube import TemplateContext

template = TemplateContext()

# Accessible from Jinja as 'my_var'
template.add_variable('my_var', 123)
```

#### `add_function` and `function`

The `add_function` method registers a function so that it's callable from
a Jinja template as a Python function. Should be called with two arguments,
a `name` and a function that will be registered under that `name`:

```python theme={null}
from cube import TemplateContext

template = TemplateContext()

# Accessible from Jinja as 'get_data()'
def get_data_1():
  return 1
template.add_function('get_data', get_data_1)
```

Also, you can use the `template.function` decorator with a single `name`
argument; the decorated function will be registered under that `name`:

```python theme={null}
from cube import TemplateContext

template = TemplateContext()

# Accessible from Jinja as 'get_more_data()'
@template.function('get_more_data')
def get_data_2():
  return 2
```

#### `add_filter` and `filter`

The `add_filter` method registers a function so that it's callable from
a Jinja template as a [Jinja filter][link-jinja-filters]. Should be called
with two arguments, a `name` and a function that will be registered as a filter
under that `name`:

```python theme={null}
from cube import TemplateContext

template = TemplateContext()

# Accessible from Jinja as 'data | wrap'
def wrap_1(data):
  return f"< {data} >"
template.add_filter('wrap', wrap_1)
```

Also, you can use the `template.filter` decorator with a single `name`
argument; the decorated function will be registered as a filter under that
`name`:

```python theme={null}
from cube import TemplateContext

template = TemplateContext()

# Accessible from Jinja as 'data | wrap_more'
@template.filter('wrap_more')
def wrap_2(data):
  return f"<<< {data} >>>"
```
