Liquid templating for Rust

Usage

To include liquid in your project add the following to your Cargo.toml:

toml [dependencies] liquid = "0.13"

Now you can use the crate in your code extern crate liquid;

Example: ```rust let template = liquid::ParserBuilder::with_liquid() .build() .parse("Liquid! {{num | minus: 2}}").unwrap();

let mut globals = liquid::Object::new(); globals.insert("num".to_owned(), liquid::Value::Num(4f32));

let output = template.render(&globals).unwrap(); asserteq!(output, "Liquid! 2".tostring()); ```

You can find a reference on Liquid syntax here.

Extending Liquid

Create your own filters

Creating your own filters is very easy. Filters are simply functions or closures that take an input Value and a Vec<Value> of optional arguments and return a Value to be rendered or consumed by chained filters.

See filters.rs for what a filter implementation looks like. You can then register it by calling liquid::ParserBuilder::filter.

Create your own tags

Tags are made up of two parts, the initialization and the rendering.

Initialization happens when the parser hits a Liquid tag that has your designated name. You will have to specify a function or closure that will then return a Renderable object to do the rendering.

See include_tag.rs for what a tag implementation looks like. You can then register it by calling liquid::ParserBuilder::tag.

Create your own tag blocks

Blocks work very similar to Tags. The only difference is that blocks contain other markup, which is why block initialization functions take another argument, a list of Elements that are inside the specified block.

See comment_block.rs for what a block implementation looks like. You can then register it by calling liquid::ParserBuilder::block.
