parent

When a template uses inheritance, it's possible to render the contents of the parent block when overriding a block by using the parent function:

.. code-block:: html+twig

{% extends "base.html.twig" %}

{% block sidebar %}
    <h3>Table Of Contents</h3>
    ...
    {{ parent() }}
{% endblock %}

The parent() call will return the content of the sidebar block as defined in the base.html.twig template.
