Description

Hello, Is this possible?

E.g.

(selmer/add-tag! :getter
                 (fn [args context-map]
                   (let [field (first args)]
                     (str (if (= (:javaType field) "boolean") "is" "get") (:name field)))))

... or using a filter instead of the tag. And in the template:

{% for field in model.fields %}
    {% getter field %}
{% endfor %}

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how Selmer's custom tags are implemented and whether they can access the template context variables. Check the add tag! function and the context map parameter to see if it contains the template variables.
