Outputting Literal curly braces in Liquid templates

Question

I\'m trying to output the following from within a liquid template:

{{ example }}

Obviously, Liquid sees this as a variable named example<

Answer 1

You can escape the HTML, for example in a {{var}} you can use \{\{var\}\}, so that way luquid don't process it.

Answer 2

This is the only thing that worked from me. Lifted from here:

{{ "{{ this " }}}}

I needed this because I wanted to reference the site global variable from inside a mustache template.

Answer 3

You can also use raw:

{% raw %}

...lots of liquid code goes here and it doesn't get interpreted...

{% endraw %}

Answer 4

What about using the numeric HTML entities { and } for { and } respectively - presumably this is to be output as HTML?

EDIT: Forgive me, I'm not too familiar with liquid (so this might be very wrong), but can you assign your {{ example }} special value to a variable and output that? May be something like:

{% assign special = '{{ example }}' %}
{{ special }}
