Chapter 1. Liquid Reference
1.1. What are liquids?
Liquid is a simple programming language used for displaying and processing most of the data from the 3scale system available for API providers. Liquid was originally developed by Shopify and is used in many other Content Management System (CMS) engines throughout the web. In the 3scale platform, it is used to expose server-side data to your API developers, greatly extending the usefulness of the Developer Portal while maintaining a high level of security.
1.1.1. Pros and cons
Liquids are mainly used to fetch and display server-side data on your Developer Portal pages. However there is much more power in liquids than just this. They serve very well for:
- Altering the DOM and content of a page based on server-side data
- Adding logic to pages, layouts, and partials
- Manipulating the email templates sent to developers
There are some use cases where liquids do not provide the best solution to the problem, mostly situations where you need to use dynamic data such as input from the user or the page URL.
Some general advice is to use them as the primary way to add logic to the page, but then if you find it impossible or overly complicated, switch to JavaScript (or add them to it, as liquids also work well with JS).
1.2. How to use liquids
Liquid markup is divided into two types: logic tags and output tags. The logic tags, marked as {% %}, are conditional liquid statements that include standard programming language elements such as the if clause, loops, and so on.
{% if current_user %} <!-- if the user is logged in --> <a href="/logout">Logout</a> <!-- show the logout link --> {% else %} <!-- if the user is not logged in --> <a href="/login">Login</a> <!-- display the login link --> {% endif %}
Output tags, marked as {{ }}, are used to display the value of the tag between the curly braces.
{{ current_user.username }} <!-- display the logged-in user's username value -->
For documentation on logic tags, please refer to the Shopify tutorial. The full reference of the 3scale liquid output tags can be found both in the tags section as well as in your Admin Portal under Help > Liquid Reference.
1.2.1. Liquid drops, tags, and filters
In the 3scale Developer Portal, you will have access to three types of liquid markup:
-
liquid drops -
{{ current_account.name }}
-
liquid tags -
{% content %}
-
liquid filters -
{{ form.errors.description | error_class }}
Liquid drops, tags, and filters are similar to logic and output tags mentioned in How to use liquids.
Liquid drops are the most basic structure, and you will be using them most of the time. They give access to certain values stored in the system such as the name of the user and the identifier of the application. The interpreter handles them in the same way as any other output tags.
On the other hand, liquid tags are a type of logic tag that renders or accesses certain parts of the system for further customization – for example, to render content in the layout or customize email templates.
Filters enable the option of refining results from the drops, converting values, and grouping by some key. There is a group of standard liquid filters, which you can find on the Shopify website and a group of special 3scale internal filters, which are listed in the liquid reference section.
1.2.2. The context
The context describes which variables (drops) are available to use on the current page. The basic set includes the following variables:
- provider
- urls
- current_user
- current_account
- today
These variables are available on every page throughout the Developer Portal, except for email templates. However, most of the built-in pages will have some additional variables available. For example, the edit user form will have a user variable exposed (instead of current user – on edit user page, the identity of the user is already known). To check which variables are available on the current page, there is a special tag: {% debug:help %}
. It adds the list of all the top-level variables available to use as a comment in the source of the page.
1.2.3. Hierarchy
The direct consequence of the context is that the liquid drops are organized in a hierarchical structure. The available set of variables lists the top level drops that are available. Using them, you can get access to elements much deeper inside the hierarchy. For example, if you would like to show the username of the logged-in user, you would write {{ current_user.username }}
.
Displaying lower level drops is a little bit more complicated. Assume that you would like to display the name of the only application for a user. Looking at the reference guide, you can see that the method applications is a part of the account drop. This means that applications is an array of single-application tags. If your users are allowed to have more than one application, then you would have to iterate through them using the logic tags. Otherwise, you can refer to the first (and only) application on the account. The code to display this would look like this: {{ current_account.applications.first.name }}
.
1.3. Liquid templates
The following variables are available in every Liquid template:
- provider - all your services, plans and settings under one hood
- urls - routes to built-in pages of the developers portal - login, signup
- current_user - username, address and rights of the currently logged-in user
- current_account - messages, applications and plans of the currently logged-in user
- today - current date
Builtin pages can also have other variables available, which are mentioned in the Developer Portal. For example, an edit user form edit will have a user
variable assigned or while displaying an application detail, you can expect to have a variable application
accessible.
The type of a variable is important to know to use this reference and can be determined by putting a {% debug:help %}
tag into the page which will list all the available variables and its types in an HTML comment for you. However, usually they can be guessed quite easily from the method or variable name.
