I think the original template code is converted to pure Python before the
inclusion, but the Python isn't executed (and therefore converted into the
final parsed output) until all the extending and including is done. So, for
a given view, the entire tree (of extended and included views) is built out
before the Python is executed (the full tree is what is bytecode compiled).
So, you can do:
def index():
return dict(message='Hello', othermessage='Goodbye')
In index.html:
{{=message}}
{{include 'otherview.html'}}
In otherview.html:
{{=othermessage}}
And the resulting page will say:
Hello
Goodbye
