jinja()

jinja() enables you to create a document using a template and tokens derrived from the presently executing run and any number of past csvpath results.

The jinja() context includes the same reference types as are available in print() statements: variables, headers, metadata, and csvpath runtime data. The present csvpath's information is under the key "local", with those four dictionaries below that. Any past csvpath results are aggregated in dicts keyed by the four reference types names.

Be aware, Jinja is quite slow; much more so than print() which is already taxing for high print volumes and/or very large files.
