Liquid syntax is a template language used in many web applications. In Current RMS, use Liquid syntax to place dynamic content and modify data in document layouts and discussion templates.
In Liquid, there are three types of code: objects, tags, and filters.
Objects
Objects, or output markup (which may resolve to text) are surrounded by matched pairs of curly brackets. They tell Current RMS where to show content on a layout.
E.g. to output your company name, use:
{{ company.name }}
Should you change your company name in System Setup in future, this will be reflected on all documents where you’ve used this Liquid object.
Tags
Tags, or tag markup (which do not resolve to text), are surrounded by matched pairs of curly brackets and percent signs. They are used for logic operations and control flow.
E.g. to print out your company tax registration number only if you’ve entered one, use:
{% if company.tax_registration_number != blank %}
{{ company.tax_registration_number }}
{% endif %}
Filters
Filters change the output of a Liquid object. They are placed within an object after a pipe character, with optional data supplied after a colon.
E.g. to capitalize your company name, use:
{{ company.name | upcase }}
