Calculated default values
==============================
.. _calculated_variable:
Synopsis
-----------
A value can be calculated. In this case we have four possibilities:
- calculation via Jinja
- calculation via Jinja template
- calculation via a variable
- calculation via information
- calculation via a suffix: in the case of a variable in a dynamic family
- calculation via an index: in the case of a follower variable
- calculation via an information
- calculation via a identifier: in a :term:`dynamically built family` returns the current identifier
- calculation via an index: in the case of a :term:`follower` variable returns the current index
- calculation via :ref:`the current namespace name <namespace>`
If the user modifies the value of the variable, the default value is no longer used, so the calculation is no longer carried out. This is also the case if the variable has the `auto_save` attribute.

It's better to use :term:`relative path` notation.

* - propertyerror
`boolean`
- If access to the variable is not possible due to a property
(for example `disabled`) by default an error is returned.
The overall coherence is not guaranteed.
Default value: `true`
- false
* - optional
`boolean`
- The variable in calculation may not exist. This generates an error. Overall coherence is not guaranteed.
To avoid this set the optional parameter to `true`. In this case, if variable in calculation is not exists, the variable is always accessible.
- true
* - default
`boolean`
- If optional parameter is set to `true` and the variable in calculation is not exist, the variable is accessible.
If you do not want this behavior, set this parameter to `false`.
- false
* - description
`string`
- Rougail engine create a description like "depends on a calculation".
You can personnalize here the calculation description

- By default, the information is a context information. It is possible to get a variable information. In this case just specify a path.
- my_variable
The default namespace is defined in `RougailConfig["variable_namespace"]` with the default value `rougail`.
In addition, there are extras namespaces defined with in `RougailConfig["extra_dictionaries"]`.
Inside those namespaces we can add families and variables.
Here is an hierarchic examples:
.. code-block::
rougail
├── variable1
├── family1
│ ├── variable2
│ └── variable3
└── family2
└── subfamily1
└── variable4
extra1
└── family3
├── variable5
└── variable6
In `calculation` we can use other variables.
Here are all paths:
- `rougail.variable1`
- `rougail.family1.variable2`
- `rougail.family1.variable3`
- `rougail.family2.subfamily1.variable4`
- `extra1.family3.variable5`
- `extra1.family3.variable6`
Inside a variable's `calculation` we can use relative path. "_" means that other variable is in same family. "__" means that other variables are in parent family, and so on...
For example, in variable2's `calculation`, we can use relative path:
- `__.variable1`
- `_.variable3`
- `__.family2.subfamily1.variable4`
But we cannot access to extra1 variables with relative path.
Dynamic family
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Here is a `{{ suffix }}` dynamic family:
.. code-block::
rougail
├── variable1: ["val1", "val2"]
├── {{ suffix }}
│ ├── variable2
│ └── variable3
└── family
└── variable4
For `variable2`'s calculation, we can use:
- `rougail.{{ suffix }}.variable3`
- `_.variable3`
In this case, we get value for "variable3" with the same suffix as "variable2".
For variable4's calculation, we have two possibility:
- retrieves all values with all suffixes:
- `rougail.{{ suffix }}.variable3`
- `__.{{ suffix }}.variable3`
- retrieves a value for a specified suffix:
- `rougail.val1.variable3`
- `__.val1.variable3`
