A simple, expressive, safe and [Shopify][shopify/liquid] compatible template engine in pure JavaScript.
**The purpose of this repo** is to provide a standard Liquid implementation for the JavaScript community so that [Jekyll sites](https://jekyllrb.com), [Github Pages](https://pages.github.com/) and [Shopify templates](https://themes.shopify.com/) can be ported to Node.js without pain.
* [Documentation][doc]
* Please star [LiquidJS on GitHub][github]!
* Support [LiquidJS on Open Collective][oc] or [Patreon][patreon]
## Installation
Install from npm in Node.js:
```bash
npm install --save liquidjs
```
Or use the UMD bundle from jsDelivr:
```html
<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/liquidjs/dist/liquid.min.js"></script>
```
More details, refer to [The Setup Guide][setup].
## Differences with Shopify/liquid
All features, filters and tags in [shopify/liquid](https://github.com/Shopify/liquid) are supposed to be built in LiquidJS, but not those business-logic specific filters/tags which are typically from Shopify themes (see [Plugins List][plugins] in case you're looking for them and feel free to add yours to the list). Though being compatible the Ruby version is one of our priorities, there are still some differences:
* Dynamic file locating (enabled by default), that means layout/partial names are treated as variables 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. In JavaScript we cannot distinguish or convert between `float` and `integer`, see [#59](https://github.com/harttle/liquidjs/issues/59). And when applied `size` filter, numbers always return 0, which is 8 for integer in ruby, cause they do not have a `length` property.
* [.to_liquid()](https://github.com/Shopify/liquid/wiki/Introduction-to-Drops) is replaced by `.toLiquid()`
* [.to_s()](https://www.rubydoc.info/gems/liquid/Liquid/Drop) is replaced by JavaScript `.toString()`
* Iteration order for objects. The iteration order of JavaScript objects, and thus LiquidJS objects, is a combination of the insertion order for string keys, and ascending order for number-like keys, while the iteration order of Ruby Hash is simply the insertion order.
* Sort stability. The [sort](https://shopify.github.io/liquid/filters/sort/) stability is also not defined in both shopify/liquid and LiquidJS, but it's [considered stable](https://v8.dev/features/stable-sort) for LiquidJS in Node.js 12+ and Google Chrome 70+.
