title: url_to

|
|
summary: Generates a URL relative to another path.

|
type: method

|
|
signature: path, alt=None, absolute=None, external=None

|
body:
|
|
|
|
Calculates the URL from the current source object to the given other source
|
|
object. Alternatively a path can also be provided instead of a source object.
|
|
If the path starts with a leading bang (``!``) then no resolving is performed.
|
|
If no `alt` is provided the `alt` of the page is used.
|
|
|
|
This is what the `|url` filter uses internally to generate URLs.
|
|
|
|
In addition to that `absolute` can enforce the URL to be absolute instead of
|
|
relative to the current page and `external` can be used to also add the
|
|
domain part to the URL (if configured). The default behavior is to use the
|
|
configured URL style (which is `relative`) unless absolute or external were
|
|
explicitly provided. For more information read about this in the
|
|
[Project Configuration :ref](../../../../project/file/#project).

## Example
|
|
|
|
```html+jinja
|
|
{% set downloads = site.get('/downloads') %}
|
|
Path from downloads to here: {{ downloads.url_to(this) }}
|
|
```
