Is there a support / planned support for async filters?

[kyrisu]

I'm trying to refactor my code that is currently using liquid module to use liquidjs and one thing I'm missing are async filters. Something that would allow me to do:

{{ userId | get_user_data | json }}

where get_user_data is an async function calling external API.

Is something like this currently possible? Any workaround that could make this possible?

I've looked through the docs and tickets and the only thing I've found is the async context resolution.

Filters cannot be async currently, but we do support async drops, see this test case:

https://github.com/harttle/liquidjs/blob/master/test/integration/drop/drop.ts#L48

Async filters are now supported, see this test case:

liquidjs/test/integration/liquid/register-filters.ts

Lines 26 to 34 in e36f3ff

	liquid.registerFilter('get_user_data', function (userId) {
	return Promise.resolve({ userId, userName: userId.toUpperCase() })
	})
	it('should support async filter', async () => {
	const src = `{{ userId | get_user_data | json }}`
	const dst = '{"userId":"alice","userName":"ALICE"}'
	const html = await liquid.parseAndRender(src, { userId: 'alice' })
	return expect(html).to.equal(dst)
	})
