module Liquid
# A drop in liquid is a class which allows you to to export DOM like things to liquid
# Methods of drops are callable.
# The main use for liquid drops is the implement lazy loaded objects.
# If you would like to make data available to the web designers which you don't want loaded unless needed then
# a drop is a great way to do that
#
# Example:
#
# class ProductDrop < Liquid::Drop
# def top_sales
# Shop.current.products.find(:all, :order => 'sales', :limit => 10 )
# end
# end
#
# tmpl = Liquid::Template.parse( ' {% for product in product.top_sales %} {{ product.name }} {%endfor%} ' )
# tmpl.render('product' => ProductDrop.new ) # will invoke top_sales query.
#
# Your drop can either implement the methods sans any parameters or implement the before_method(name) method which is a
# catch all
class Drop
attr_writer :context
# Catch all for the method
def before_method(method)
nil
end
# called by liquid to invoke a drop
def invoke_drop(method)
result = before_method(method)
result ||= send(method.to_sym) if self.class.public_instance_methods.include?(method.to_s)
result
end
def has_key?(name)
true
end
def to_liquid
