How do I use the twitter-bootstrap-rails gem in my Rails 3.2.1 app? What is the workflow?
After I do:
rails g bootstrap:layout [LAYOUT_NAME] [*fixed or fluid] [options]
what do I do next? Do I just copy and paste the generated code into my view? Do I do this for every view? If so, how is doing
rails g bootstrap:themed [RESOURCE_NAME] [LAYOUT] [options]
any different?
Do you guys even use the rails generators?
Thanks
I'm the author of twitter-bootstrap-rails gem. I'll give you a quick walktrough to how to install and use twitter-bootstrap-rails.
Ruby stack; (Ruby 1.9.3, Rails 3.1 or Rails 3.2 is required. Use RVM to get started)
After bundling gem to Gemfile by;
gem 'twitter-bootstrap-rails'
bundle install
rails g bootstrap:install
(it will includes Twitter Bootstrap to your app's asset pipeline)
rails g bootstrap:layout application fixed
(it will generates layout for you, by default application.html.erb and fixed layout will generates)
rails g scaffold post title:string description:text
(this step uses Rails generators to create CRUD stuff for you)
rake db:migrate
(migrating to database)
rails g bootstrap:themed posts
(Twitter Bootstrap compatible styling for your 'posts' views and form)
Also there is detailed documentation to install, usage and generators, coffeescript etc. https://github.com/seyhunak/twitter-bootstrap-rails.
