Dynamic css import with Jinja2

Question

I am trying to make my stylesheets dynamic with django (jinja2) and I want to do something like this:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="{% static 'home/css/{{ block css }}{{ endblock }}.css' %}">

Apparently, I can't use Jinja in Jinja :), and I don't know how to make this work another way.

How exactly? Sorry, I am fairly new... Could you please precise ? — AimiHat

I found a solution that works out pretty well.

I use <link rel="stylesheet" href="{% block css %}{% endblock %}"> in the template
and then: {% block css%}{% static 'home/css/file.css' %}{% endblock % in each page

Couldn't you do something like this?

{% if condition == True %}
    <link rel='stylesheet' href='file1.css'>
{% else %}
    <link rel='stylesheet' href='file2.css'>
{% endif %}

And so on.
