I have been using sublime text for almost 4 years now and have always struggled with jinja2 brackets that are in this format
{% if expression %}
Is there a way i can create a rule for this kind of autocomplate.
How to create a new rule for auto-completing matching brackets that are in templating systems like jinja2

You mean the behavior like with automatically adding closing parentheses, brackets and braces?
These functions use normal keybindings which you can copy and customize. Here is an example.
// Auto-pair jinja brackets
{
// ctrl+% (german layout)
"keys": ["ctrl+shift+5"],
"command": "insert_snippet",
"args": {"contents": "{% $0 %}"},
"context": [
{ "key": "setting.auto_match_enabled", "operator": "equal", "operand": true },
{ "key": "selection_empty", "operator": "equal", "operand": true, "match_all": true },
{ "key": "following_text", "operator": "regex_contains", "operand": "^(?:\t| |\\)|]|;|\\}|$)", "match_all": true }
]
},
{
// ctrl+% (german layout)
"keys": ["ctrl+shift+5"],
"command": "insert_snippet",
"args": {"contents": "{% ${0:$SELECTION} %}"},
"context": [
{ "key": "setting.auto_match_enabled", "operator": "equal", "operand": true },
{ "key": "selection_empty", "operator": "equal", "operand": false, "match_all": true },
]
},
{
// ctrl+% (german layout)
"keys": ["ctrl+shift+5"],
"command": "move",
"args": {"by": "characters", "forward": true},
"context": [
{ "key": "setting.auto_match_enabled", "operator": "equal", "operand": true },
{ "key": "selection_empty", "operator": "equal", "operand": true, "match_all": true },
{ "key": "following_text", "operator": "regex_contains", "operand": "^\\{%", "match_all": true }
]
},

You may also try this keybindings to insert them automatically as you type:
{
"keys": ["%"], "command": "insert_snippet",
"args": {
"contents": "% $1 %"
},
"context":
[
{ "key": "setting.auto_match_enabled", "operator": "equal", "operand": true },
{ "key": "selector", "operand": "source" }, // your language
{ "key": "preceding_text", "operator": "regex_contains", "operand": "{$" },
],
},
{
"keys": ["%"], "command": "insert_snippet",
"args": {
"contents": "% $1 %}"
},
"context":
[
{ "key": "setting.auto_match_enabled", "operator": "equal", "operand": true },
{ "key": "selector", "operand": "source" }, // your language
{ "key": "preceding_text", "operator": "regex_contains", "operand": "{$" },
{ "key": "following_text", "operator": "not_regex_match", "operand": "}" },
],
},
