Conditional file inclusion

[randrej]

Is there a way to conditionally include a file depending on the value of a variable?

What do you mean with "include"? Jinja include? Render the whole file conditionally? Something else?

Render the whole file conditionally.

If a variable abc = True, the file test.txt is rendered into the output directory. If it's false, it's not rendered into the output directory.

Just template the file name. Call it something like: {% if abc %}myfile.txt{% endif %}

If the file/dir name become empty after applying templating, it will be skipped.
