Liquid Hello World

---

• Depened on the liquid crate

examples/liquid/liquid-hello-world/Cargo.toml

[package]
name = "liquid-hello-world"
version = "0.1.0"
edition = "2021"

# See more keys and their definitions at https://doc.rust-lang.org/cargo/reference/manifest.html

[dependencies]
liquid = "0.26"

• Start with a template that is part of the Rust source code.
• We use the parse and build methods to create the template object.
• We use unwrap here which is probably not ideal, but it simlifies the examples.
• Using the liquid::object! macro we create an object from the data we would like to pass to the template.
• Using the render method we combine the data with the template and generate (render) the resuling text.

examples/liquid/liquid-hello-world/src/main.rs

fn main() {
    let template = liquid::ParserBuilder::with_stdlib()
        .build()
        .unwrap()
        .parse("Welcome to {{name}}")
        .unwrap();

    let globals = liquid::object!({
        "name": "Liquid"
    });
    let output = template.render(&globals).unwrap();

    println!("{}", output);
}
