Using the same template name multiple times with Flask and Jinja2
I have a Flask project with the following structure:
├── config.py
├── errors
│ ├── __init__.py
│ ├── handlers.py
│ └── templates
│ ├── errors
│ │ ├── 403.html
│ │ ├── 404.html
│ │ └── 500.html
│ └── default_layout.html
├── home
│ ├── __init__.py
│ ├── routes.py
│ └── templates
│ ├── about
│ │ └── general.html
│ └── default_layout.html
├── static
│ └── style.css
└── templates
└── default_layout.html
My app contains two blueprints: errors and home.
Is there a way for template files in my blueprints to extend multiple template files with the same filename? I have the following which results in an exception:
1) app/errors/templates/errors/403.html:
{% extends 'default_layout.html' %}
{% block error_content %}
<div class="content-section">
<h1>404 error</h1>
<p>{{ error }}</p>
</div>
{% endblock error_content %}
2) app/errors/templates/default_layout.html:
{% extends 'default_layout.html' %}
{% block content %}
<div class="content-section">
<h1>NESTED BLOCK</h1>
{% block error_content %}{% endblock %}
</div>
{% endblock content %}
3) app/templates/default_layer.html:
{% block content %}{% endblock %}
I want the default_layout.html referenced in 1) to refer to 2) and the default_layout.html referenced in 2) to refer to 3).

One approach is to further nest templates using the name of the blueprint as a scope. E.g.,
errors/templates/default_layout.html
would become
errors/templates/errors/default_layout.html
And using it would become {% extends "errors/default_layout.html" %}
