Jekyll Liquid : does post_url accept variable?

Question

this works fine:

{% post_url 2017-06-14-Home %}

but this doesn't:

{% assign mypost = '2017-06-14-Home' %}
{% post_url {{mypost}} %}

Why? This seems to be pretty straightforward...

EDIT

OK, so finally I ported my site to Pelican. Now it works just fine.

Did you try `{% post_url mypost %}`? – rocambille Jun 15 '17 at 10:16 — rocambille, Jun 15 '17 at 10:16

That is weird. I think it is because in, {% post_url 2017-06-14-Home %} '2017-06-14-Home' is not a string. It seems like it should be but it's probably actually an object.

Not sure if this will work but try the following:

{% assign mypost = 2017-06-14-Home %}
{% post_url mypost %}

Where did you note this above? I am not talking about the omission of the curly braces. I am talking about the omission of the quote marks. – GeorgeButter Jun 17 '17 at 08:38
Oh, OK. You are right. I see it now. But this doesn't work either :-( – tnorgd Jun 17 '17 at 09:03
What a strange issue. I'll take another look later try and replicate myself. – GeorgeButter Jun 17 '17 at 09:45
