}Virtual Layout
If not using any custom layout or collection, the default virtual layout will output as a form select element:
{% assign destinationCountryCode = shoppingCartData.destinationCountry.code %}
{% if this.items.size > 0 %}
<div class="cms_fake_select">
<select data-cms_cart_countries="">
<option value="">Please select</option>
{% for item in this.items %}
<option value="{{item.code}}" {% if destinationCountryCode == item.code %} selected="true" {% endif %}>{{item.displayName}}</option>
{% endfor %}
</select>
</div>
{% endif %}
{% endif %}
Rendering the form element:
Accessing the Data
JSON Output
You can output the full JSON for your component data by referencing the root Liquid object {{this}} in your module’s layouts, or directly on your page, if using the collectionVariable parameter in your component tag.
For example:
{% component type: ... collectionVariable: "myData" %}
You can then render the JSON like so:
{{myData}}
For more details on using this approach, see Part 2 of the free ‘Learning Liquid Course’.
Rendering Property Values
This data is also accessible directly on the Page or Template via a Liquid Collection by adding collectionVariable to the Component.
An example using collectionVariable with value "countryCollection":
{% component type: "countries", collectionVariable: "countryCollection" %}
Accessing a specific item within the collection. In this case the third item (zero based index), which in our example would render the value ALGERIA
{{countryCollection.items[2]['DisplayName']}}
