What is the proper way to link to liquid code in a Custom Liquid block? Using Dawn theme

Technical Q&A

I am making my own variant picker for when I have too many options. How can I link to a file with liquid code instead of hardcoding?

Here’s is an example:

  1. I added a Custom Liquid block.

  2. In the template, I have the custom liquid.> “5117a0c0-257f-4320-8e63-a0c39e9518e8”: {> “type”: “custom_liquid”,> > “settings”: {> “custom_liquid”: “how can I link a snippet or code file instead of hardcoded liquid?”> }> },

This is a huge pain point for me. Such a shame, that with such amazing git support, custom code is reduced to a zero-maintainable one-line concat string. That too in a JSON file!

Have you found a solution meanwhile?
