Rails Assets + Twitter Bootstrap 3 + Simple Form = <3
1. Get your gemfile ready
Add simple form:
gem 'simple_form', '~> 3.1.0'
Add an additional source for rails assets:
source 'https://rails-assets.org'
Add any bower package you might need, prepending the package name with "rails-assets" like this:
gem 'rails-assets-bootstrap'
gem 'rails-assets-jquery'
gem 'rails-assets-jquery-ujs'
2. Get everything installed
On your console:
bundle
rails generate simple_form:install --bootstrap
3. Call your assets
On application.js
:
//= require jquery
//= require jquery-ujs/rails
//= require bootstrap
//= require_tree .
On application.css
:
/*
*= require bootstrap
*= require_tree .
*= require_self
*/
4. Generate some resources to test this out and migrate
rails g scaffold posts title:string body:text
bundle exec rake db:migrate
5. Use bootstrap classes
6. All set!!!
