How to store liquid templates in a database?

[Gitted]

Hello,

I believe liquid assumes the templates are stored on the file system correct?

Is there a way to load them from the database or another data store?

What I ideally want to do is, for a given page, I want to know all the templates to load (because there could be inner templates) and then load the templates and not have the template on the fly load the templates while it is parsing.  Is this possible?

It is possible, but requires some significant work.

Fortunately, Chapter 3 "Retrieving View Templates from Custom Stores" in the book "Crafting Rails 4 Applications" by José Valim that walks through exactly how to solve this problem.
