seems im not able to parse a json template with escaped quotes

[amassillo]

Hi there!
Im looking for help :)
So I have a mongo document storing liquid markup expressions

"settings" : { "src" : "{{location.name}}", "href" : "visit us: {% if location.website !='' %}{{location.website}}{%else%}{{location.url}}{% endif %}", "exp" : "{% assign cf = location.tags | where: \"name\",\"Market\" | first %}{{cf.data}}" },

When i stringify the whole node and try to parse it, im getting ""Error: tag "{% assign cf ..." not closed, probably related to the escape im doing for storing the expression on db
Any ideas about how could i get it working? If i process each key-val separately it works just fine

Thanks in advance
Ale

The top level syntax should be Liquid, that means the template passed into LiquidJS should be a valid Liquid template string. In this case the above string has a if tag and a assign tag, the assign tag is not valid:

{% assign cf = location.tags | where: \"name\",\"Market\" | first %}

Note that the quotes are escaped (that's valid in JSON syntax, but not in Liquid syntax).

I solved this problem this way, but I'm sure there is a better solution:

template = template.replace(/\{\{.*?\}\}/g, (match) => {
  return match.includes('\\"') ? JSON.parse(`"${match}"` : match
});
