Getting request.path in django template tags

I want to create a custom filter for django templates. I've got some currency pairs (which are links) that I pass to my html page so I need to check if current url is equal to a currency pair from my list, then I gotta skip it.

For example, my url is:

https://website.com/usd/eur/

So if there's a pair USD/EUR, it won't be shown on my page.

To do this, I need to loop over all pairs and compare them to request.path value. So, how can I get it within my template tags ?

You can directly receive request into template tags like - 

@register.simple_tag(name='new_tag')
def new_tag(request):
    path = request.path
    ....

and then in your html use it like {% new_tag request %}.
