View Source Liquex.Tag behaviour (liquex v0.13.1)

Behaviour for building a tag parser and renderer in Liquex.

To build a custom tag, create a new module and implement the Liquex.Tag behaviour.

defmodule CustomTag do
  @behaviour Liquex.Tag

  import NimbleParsec

  @impl true
  # Parse <<Custom Tag>>
  def parse() do
    text =
      lookahead_not(string(">>"))
      |> utf8_char([])
      |> times(min: 1)
      |> reduce({Kernel, :to_string, []})
      |> tag(:text)

    combinator
    |> ignore(string("<<"))
    |> optional(text)
    |> ignore(string(">>"))
  end

  @impl true
  def render(contents, context) do
    {result, context} = Liquex.Render.render!(contents, context)
    {["Custom Tag: ", result], context}
  end
end

You will then have to create a new parser to parse any custom tags.

defmodule CustomParser do
  use Liquex.Parser, tags: [CustomTag, OtherTag]
end

From there, you can parse and render your liquid content.

{:ok, document} = Liquex.parse("<<Hello World!>>", CustomParser)
{result, _} = Liquex.render!(document, context)

Summary

Callbacks
