How to remove trailing whitespaces from string in Jinja?

In my case all the strings are single-worded and the trailing whitespaces from the strings need to be removed, e.g., 'hello '→ 'hello'; 'hello '→ 'hello'.

One approach could be using split, i.e,

{% if ' ' in word %}
  {% set word = word.split(' ')[0] %}
{% endif %}

This works since the strings are one-worded. I am quite sure there must be a better approach.

Solution

  • Silly me! It is .strip(), i.e., 'hello '.strip().
