Nunjucks is not responsible for handling JS events.

Okay, so I have noticed that all functions passed to the template get executed when the page loads or reload as long as they are called on the page somewhere, and functions cannot be executed using the js event attribute. Actually, this is not what I expected with the function call capability I won't have any need for it unless it can be triggered on js event.

Template basically is a js, that outputs HTML string you need.

Check your output HTML to debug problem with your event handlers.
