File template variables

A file template can contain variables, which are replaced by their values when the template is applied. A variable is a string that starts with a dollar sign $ followed by the variable name. The variable name may optionally be enclosed in curly braces. For example: $MyVariable and ${MyVariable} are different notations of the same variable.

Predefined template variables

The following predefined variables can be used in file templates:

Variable	Description
`${DATE}`	Current system date
`${DAY}`	Current day of the month
`${DS}`	Dollar sign `$`. This variable is used to escape the dollar character, so that it is not treated as a prefix of a template variable.
`${FILE_NAME}`	Name of the new file
`${HOUR}`	Current hour
`${MINUTE}`	Current minute
`${SECOND}`	Current second
`${MONTH}`	Current month
`${MONTH_NAME_FULL}`	Full name of the current month (January, February, and so on)
`${MONTH_NAME_SHORT}`	First three letters of the current month name (Jan, Feb, and so on)
`${NAME}`	Name of the new entity (file, %class%, interface, and so on)
`${ORGANIZATION_NAME}`	Name of your organization specified in the project settings
`${PRODUCT_NAME}`	Name of the IDE (for example, DataGrip)
`${PROJECT_NAME}`	Name of the current project
`${TIME}`	Current system time
`${USER}`	Login name of the current user
`${YEAR}`	Current year
