In Brick.js, partials are organized as modules,
Sub-modules are imported by include. For example:
<html>
<body>
<div class="container">
{%include "user-list"%}
</div>
</body>
</html>Above template will import module user-list in root directory with local context.
Layouts
Brick-liquid render is implemented asyncly to support template layout.
Module homepage:
{%layout 'default'%}
<div class="container"> Hello! </div>Module default:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<title>{{title}}</title>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
</head>
<body> {% block %} </body>
</html>homepage will be rendered and then replace {% block %} declaration in default.
In the meantime, the local context within homepage will be passed into default.
