Get template's assigns in drop's methods

[soppiyaCMS]

Hi, i am looking for a way to get the variables assigned in a template inside the drop methods that are invoked from the template.

Like:

{% assign foo = 'bar' %}
{% assign collection = collections['key'] %}

I need to access the foo inside the liquidMethodMissing() of collections drop.

Is there a way to do that? Thanks in advance.

You may want to register your own assign and keep track of its calls. You can duplicate the implementation from this repo.

It's worth noting that, in Shopify/liquid, all drops have access to the active context object. So this might be a good feature to add to LiquidJS.

Shopify/liquid assign to a context property on the Drop base class: https://github.com/Shopify/liquid/blob/9942592ea859c13a034fc011a821a670122496b9/lib/liquid/variable_lookup.rb#L82

Which can cause issues: Shopify/liquid#1930

Other Liquid implementations pass a context argument to their equivalent of liquidMethodMissing.

Thank you @jg-rp , I've added a context parameter to liquidMethodMissing(key, context). For usage:

liquidjs/test/e2e/drop.spec.ts

Lines 26 to 30 in 597ce73

	class SettingsDrop extends Drop {
	public liquidMethodMissing (key: string, context: Context) {
	return key + ':' + context.getSync([key])
	}
	}
