Eleventy: Consider upgrading base version of LiquidJS in 11ty standard package

[danfascia]

I know that I can upgrade my LiquidJS node_module and import a new version of the Liquid rendering engine myself - which I do so that I can access some of the great features of the Liquid language (such as the where filter).

I'm wondering why the LiquidJS version included in 11ty is stuck back on version 6.4.3 and @zachleat would consider upgrading by default to the latest stable library version in the next 11ty version?

master is already on v9 (I see, https://github.com/11ty/eleventy/commit/a37a5c675d97268dab50e83e4692e152be9fbf0d from September 2020 for example).

Will be released with v1, I guess.

Ohhh... then I have a glitch in the works! Must be a hardcoded version somewhere in a package which I need to change to @latest

Good to see this because Liquid seems to have the best filters as well as being faster than NJK on benchmarks

I believe this is a dupe of #469 and #1058, both on https://github.com/orgs/11ty/projects/5

Ah, those are the issue / PR I was looking for!

[danfascia]

OK actually I'm back again because something really strange is going on.

From a completely fresh install where all that I do is npm install @11ty/eleventy the liquidjs module it pulls down is 6.4.3

Why is it reverting to this old outdated dependency version?

[Ryuno-Ki]

Because v1 is not published yet. You can install from a branch instead: npm i @11ty/elventy#master should pull directly from the master branch (as long as it wasn't renamed to main).

Be aware, that it is bleeding edge!

You can also use npm i github:11ty/eleventy, without specifying the branch name.
