* ``capitalize()`` -- return the value with the first letter upper case and the rest lower case. * ``capitalize()`` -- return the value with the first letter upper case and the rest lower case.
* ``contains(pattern, text if match, text if not match)`` -- checks if field contains matches for the regular expression `pattern`. Returns `text if match` if matches are found, otherwise it returns `text if no match`. * ``contains(pattern, text if match, text if not match)`` -- checks if field contains matches for the regular expression `pattern`. Returns `text if match` if matches are found, otherwise it returns `text if no match`.
* ``count(separator)`` -- interprets the value as a list of items separated by `separator`, returning the number of items in the list. Most lists use a comma as the separator, but authors uses an ampersand. Examples: `{tags:count(,)}`, `{authors:count(&)}` * ``count(separator)`` -- interprets the value as a list of items separated by `separator`, returning the number of items in the list. Most lists use a comma as the separator, but authors uses an ampersand. Examples: `{tags:count(,)}`, `{authors:count(&)}`
* ``format_number(template)`` -- interprets the value as a number and format that number using a Python formatting template such as "{0:5.2f}" or "{0:,d}" or "${0:5,.2f}". The field_name part of the template must be a 0 (zero) (the "{0:" in the above examples). See the template language and Python documentation for more examples. Returns the empty string if formatting fails. * ``format_number(template)`` -- interprets the value as a number and format that number using a Python formatting template such as "{0:5.2f}" or "{0:,d}" or "${0:5,.2f}". The field_name part of the template must be a 0 (zero) (the "{0:" in the above examples). You can leave off the leading "{0:" and trailing "}" if the template contains only a format. See the template language and Python documentation for more examples. Returns the empty string if formatting fails.

* ``ifempty(text)`` -- if the field is not empty, return the value of the field. Otherwise return `text`. * ``ifempty(text)`` -- if the field is not empty, return the value of the field. Otherwise return `text`.
* ``in_list(separator, pattern, found_val, not_found_val)`` -- interpret the field as a list of items separated by `separator`, comparing the `pattern` against each value in the list. If the pattern matches a value, return `found_val`, otherwise return `not_found_val`. * ``in_list(separator, pattern, found_val, not_found_val)`` -- interpret the field as a list of items separated by `separator`, comparing the `pattern` against each value in the list. If the pattern matches a value, return `found_val`, otherwise return `not_found_val`.
