[Rails] Liquid with database?

[softwareengineer 99]

Hi Rick,
  
  Thanks for your reply.
  
  I will definitely check the resource links out. 
  
  A quick question, are you using file based liquid templates or storing them in the database?
  
  Thanks
  Frank

You mean the liquid template engine?  I'm not sure how others like
Stikipad or Shopify are using them, but my little blog engine Mephisto
uses liquid.

svn co http://techno-weenie.net/svn/projects/mephisto/trunk
# set up database.yml
rake install_mephisto

I don't yet ship with decent templates (mephisto is very rough and not
ready for public consumption), but here's some samples:
http://techno-weenie.net/templates.yml

Here's the liquid rendering in action:

Liquid cannot access your model's properties, so I wrote a #to_liquid
method to return a hash.
