Liquid Controller Lifecycle

For each action, Liquid controller templates are executed in three phases:

  1. Beforecontrollers/products/{action}.liquid runs before the Rails action
  2. After — runs after the Rails action but before the response is sent
  3. Final — runs after the response, useful for cleanup

Available Liquid Tags

Inside controller templates, these tags are available:

Tag Description
{% params %} Set request parameters (e.g. {% params foo: "bar" %})
{% variables %} Set template variables (e.g. {% variables title: "Hello" %})
{% respond %} Respond with custom content, alert, or notice
{% redirect %} Redirect the request (e.g. {% redirect to: "/products" %})
{% action %} Execute a server-side action (e.g. {% action "cart.add" %})

Example

Create a file at controllers/products/index.liquid:

liquid {% before %} variables custom_heading: "Welcome" {% endbefore %}
