render_block_to_string expects context to be "Context | None" instead of dict

[ma11011s]

In the readme this example code is given:

print(render_block_to_string('test3.html', 'block3', {'variable': 'test'}))

but the code defines that context is not a dict but Optional[Context] = None:

def render_block_to_string(
    template_name: Union[str, Tuple[str], List[str]],
    block_name: str,
    context: Optional[Context] = None,
    request: Optional[HttpRequest] = None,
) -> str:

We could provide a Context object but i don't think that was intended to do :

from django.template import Context
print(render_block_to_string('test3.html', 'block3', Context({'variable': 'test'})))

Is this a code issue or a type hint issue? Does the code in the README not work?

[ma11011s]

Sorry I should also have said that this is a typing issue. Should still be fixed in the code IMHO.

[clokep]

Yes, definitely should be fixed. Luckily we don't export type hints yet. If you have time to make a PR that would be great.

I am not that experienced with github and pull requests, so i hope this PR is okay.
