Edit the template contents. You can use:
Plain text.
#parse directives to work with template includes.
Custom variables. Their names can be defined right in the template through the #set directive or will be defined during the file creation.
Variables to be expanded into corresponding values in the ${<variable_name>} format.
The available predefined file template variables are:
${PROJECT_NAME} - the name of the current project.
${NAME} - the name of the new file which you specify in the New File dialog box during the file creation.
${USER} - the login name of the current user.
${DATE} - the current system date.
${TIME} - the current system time.
${YEAR} - the current year.
${MONTH} - the current month.
${DAY} - the current day of the month.
${HOUR} - the current hour.
${MINUTE} - the current minute.
${PRODUCT_NAME} - the name of the IDE in which the file will be created.
${MONTH_NAME_SHORT} - the first 3 letters of the month name. Example: Jan, Feb, etc.
${MONTH_NAME_FULL} - full name of a month. Example: January, February, etc.
Treating dollar sign
You can prevent treating dollar characters ($) in template variables as prefixes. If you need a dollar character ($ inserted as is, use the ${DS} file template variable instead. When the template is applied, this variable evaluates to a plain dollar character ($).
Examples:
To use some version control keywords (such as $Revision$, $Date$, etc.) in your default class template, write ${DS} instead of the dollar prefix ($).
The template code ${DS}this will be rendered as $this.
PyCharm doesn't prompt for the values of Velocity variables defined with #set.
