This is a liquid implementation for both Node.js and browsers. Website: <http://harttle.github.io/liquidjs/>, Live Demo: <https://jsfiddle.net/6u40xbzs/> 

**Features**

* Fully compatible to [shopify][shopify/liquid], with all [tags][tags] and [filters][filters] implemented
* Support layout(extend) and include syntax
* In pure JavaScript with Promise-based API

**Differences**

Though being compatible with [Ruby Liquid](https://github.com/shopify/liquid) is one of our priorities, there're still certain differences. You may need some configuration to get it compatible in these senarios:

* Dynamic file locating (enabled by default), which means layout/partial name can be an variable in liquidjs. See [#51](https://github.com/harttle/liquidjs/issues/51).
* Truthy and Falsy. All values except `undefined`, `null`, `false` are truthy, whereas in Ruby Liquid all except `nil` and `false` are truthy. See [#26](https://github.com/harttle/liquidjs/pull/26).
* Number Rendering. Since JavaScript do not distinguish `float` and `integer`, we cannot either convert between them nor render regarding to their type. See [#59](https://github.com/harttle/liquidjs/issues/59).
* [.to_liquid()](https://github.com/Shopify/liquid/wiki/Introduction-to-Drops) has a `.toLiquid()` alias and and the JavaScript `.toString()` is aliased to `.to_s()`.
* [.to_s()](https://www.rubydoc.info/gems/liquid/Liquid/Drop) uses `JSON.prototype.stringify` as default, rather than Ruby's inspect.

## Render from String

Install as Node.js dependency:

```bash
# You'll need a promise-polyfill for Node.js < 4
npm install --save liquidjs
```

Parse and Render:

```javascript
var Liquid = require('liquidjs');
var engine = Liquid();

engine
    .parseAndRender('{{name | capitalize}}', {name: 'alice'})
    .then(console.log);

// outputs 'Alice'
```

Caching templates:

```javascript
var tpl = engine.parse('{{name | capitalize}}');
engine
    .render(tpl, {name: 'alice'})
    .then(console.log);

// outputs 'Alice'
```

## Render from File

```javascript
var engine = Liquid({
    root: path.resolve(__dirname, 'views/'),  // dirs to lookup layouts/includes
    extname: '.liquid'          // the extname used for layouts/includes, defaults ""
});
engine.renderFile("hello.liquid", {name: 'alice'})
    .then(console.log)  // outputs "Alice"

// which is equivalent to: 
engine
    .renderFile("hello", {name: 'alice'})
    .then(console.log)  // outputs "Alice"
```

## Use with Express.js

```javascript
// register liquid engine
app.engine('liquid', engine.express()); 
app.set('views', './views');            // specify the views directory
app.set('view engine', 'liquid');       // set to default
```

[Here](demo/express/)'s an Express demo. When used with Express.js,
Express [`views`][express-views] will be included when looking up
partials(includes and layouts).

## Use in Browser

You can get a dist file for browsers from

* [Releases][releases] page for liquidjs, or
* unpkg.com: <https://unpkg.com/liquidjs/dist/liquid.min.js> 

Here's the demo:

* JSFiddle: <https://jsfiddle.net/6u40xbzs/> 
* Demo directory: [/demo/browser/](demo/browser/).

Note: For [IE and Android UC][caniuse-promises] browser, you will need a [Promise polyfill][pp].

## Include Partials

```
// file: color.liquid
color: '{{ color }}' shape: '{{ shape }}'

// file: theme.liquid
{% assign shape = 'circle' %}
{% include 'color' %}
{% include 'color' with 'red' %}
{% include 'color', color: 'yellow', shape: 'square' %}
```

The output will be:

```
color: '' shape: 'circle'
color: 'red' shape: 'circle'
color: 'yellow' shape: 'square'
```

## Layout Templates (Extends)

```
// file: default-layout.liquid
Header
{% block content %}My default content{% endblock %}
Footer

// file: page.liquid
{% layout "default-layout" %}
{% block content %}My page content{% endblock %}
```

The output of `page.liquid`:

```
Header
My page content
Footer
```

* It's possible to define multiple blocks.
* block name is optional when there's only one block.

## Options

The full list of options for `Liquid()` is listed as following:

* `root` is a directory or an array of directories to resolve layouts and includes, as well as the filename passed in when calling `.renderFile()`.
If an array, the files are looked up in the order they occur in the array.
Defaults to `["."]`

* `extname` is used to lookup the template file when filepath doesn't include an extension name. Eg: setting to `".html"` will allow including file by basename. Defaults to `""`.

* `cache` indicates whether or not to cache resolved templates. Defaults to `false`.

* `dynamicPartials`: if set, treat `<filepath>` parameter in `{%include filepath %}`, `{%layout filepath%}` as a variable, otherwise as a literal value. Defaults to `true`.

* `strict_filters` is used to enable strict filter existence. If set to `false`, undefined filters will be rendered as empty string. Otherwise, undefined filters will cause an exception. Defaults to `false`.

* `strict_variables` is used to enable strict variable derivation. 
If set to `false`, undefined variables will be rendered as empty string.
Otherwise, undefined variables will cause an exception. Defaults to `false`.

* `trim_tag_right` is used to strip blank characters (including ` `, `\t`, and `\r`) from the right of tags (`{% %}`) until `\n` (inclusive). Defaults to `false`.

* `trim_tag_left` is similiar to `trim_tag_right`, whereas the `\n` is exclusive. Defaults to `false`. See [Whitespace Control][whitespace control] for details.

* `trim_value_right` is used to strip blank characters (including ` `, `\t`, and `\r`) from the right of values (`{{ }}`) until `\n` (inclusive). Defaults to `false`.

* `trim_value_left` is similiar to `trim_value_right`, whereas the `\n` is exclusive. Defaults to `false`. See [Whitespace Control][whitespace control] for details.

* `greedy` is used to specify whether `trim_left`/`trim_right` is greedy. When set to `true`, all consecutive blank characters including `\n` will be trimed regardless of line breaks. Defaults to `true`.

## Register Filters

```javascript
// Usage: {{ name | uppper }}
engine.registerFilter('upper', v => v.toUpperCase())
```

Filter arguments will be passed to the registered filter function, for example:

```javascript
// Usage: {{ 1 | add: 2, 3 }}
engine.registerFilter('add', (initial, arg1, arg2) => initial + arg1 + arg2)
```

See existing filter implementations here: <https://github.com/harttle/liquidjs/blob/master/filters.js>

## Register Tags

```javascript
// Usage: {% upper name%}
engine.registerTag('upper', {
    parse: function(tagToken, remainTokens) {
        this.str = tagToken.args; // name
    },
    render: function(scope, hash) {
        var str = Liquid.evalValue(this.str, scope); // 'alice'
        return Promise.resolve(str.toUpperCase()); // 'Alice'
    }
});
```

* `parse`: Read tokens from `remainTokens` until your end token.
* `render`: Combine scope data with your parsed tokens into HTML string.

See existing tag implementations here: <https://github.com/harttle/liquidjs/blob/master/tags/>

## Plugin API

A pack of tags or filters can be encapsulated into a **plugin**, which will be typically installed via npm.

```javascript
engine.plugin(require('./some-plugin'));

// some-plugin.js
module.exports = function (Liquid) {
    // here `this` refers to the engine instance
    // `Liquid` provides facilities to implement tags and filters
    this.registerFilter('foo', x => x);
}
```
