formatting - Is there a django template filter to display percentages?

Question

I would like something similar to the string formatting from the standard library.

'%' Percentage. Multiplies the number by 100 and displays in fixed ('f') format, followed by a percent sign.

Answer 1

I was looking for almost the same question and found the widthratio template tag. Instead of having the percentage already calculated like in your question, you can use this tag to calculate the percentage in the template from the original value and total value against which your percentage is calculated. It does the job if you only need an integer percentage without precision:

{% widthratio value total_value 100 %}
