Hi,

I have input file that include the following parameter.

**internal\_network\_reverse** : 0.10

and a jinja template file that include the following line

zone “{{ **internal\_network\_reverse** | default (‘168.192’) }}.in-addr.arpa”

The **required output** I wish to get is zone “ **0.10**.in-addr.arpa”

**Instead** , I’m getting this zone “ **0.1**.in-addr.arpa” ; **Without the zero**

I have tried using string and float but still I’m not getting the required result.

zone “{{ internal\_network\_reverse | **string** | default (‘168.192’) }}.in-addr.arpa”

zone “{{ internal\_network\_reverse | **float** | default (‘168.192’) }}.in-addr.arpa”

Any suggestions??

\*Please note that I don’t want to add “ “ in my input file - this way it is working but I need to avoid the use of “ “

If your input is supposed to be yaml, then the 0.10 value will be interpreted as a float.  
If you want it to be a string, you have to quote it (although you don’t want to).

It cannot be two types at the same time
