rails3_haml_scaffold_generator's Introduction

Information about this fork

This for is no longer following the normal scaffolding layout of Rails. It uses I18n backend for headings, model attributes names etc in it's views.

Rails 3 HAML Scaffold Generator

Essentially just a copy of the Rails 3 ERB generator with HAML replacements for the templates.

Original idea from Paul Barry's article on custom genrators

Installation

Generate your new rails application:

 rails ApplicationName
 cd ApplicationName

Edit "Gemfile" and add "gem haml" to the gem list
Either
```
 gem install haml
```
...or...
```
 bundle install
```
Run
```
 haml --rails .
```

Edit config/application.rb and add the following:

 config.generators do |g|
     g.template_engine :haml
 end

Either

 git clone git://github.com/psynix/rails3_haml_scaffold_generator.git lib/generators/haml

...or...

 git submodule add git://github.com/psynix/rails3_haml_scaffold_generator.git lib/generators/haml

Create stuff with:

 rails generate controller ControllerName index
 rails generate mailer ExamplesNotifications
 rails generate scaffold FancyModel

... or if you like to mix it up with ERB, ignore step 5 and use ...

 rails generate haml:controller ControllerName index
 rails generate haml:mailer ExamplesNotifications
 rails generate haml:scaffold FancyModel

rails3_haml_scaffold_generator's Issues

_form translation

Line 4 shows a hardcoded message for the errorExplanation div's title, this message, contrasting to all other .haml.html file's messages, can't be translated.

_form nesting

Both lines 6 and 7 are wrongly nested, causing the "li" items to come after the "ul".

Superfluous = signs

Fantastic generator in almost every account. I'm just experiencing a small problem where Haml tags are being followed with '=' even though the content of that tag is plain text.
