js-rails

Common JavaScript libraries for the Rails asset pipeline.

Installation

Add this line to the assets group in your Gemfile:

gem 'js-rails'

This gem includes jquery.js, jquery.min.js and jquery_ujs.js, so a dependency on jquery-rails is not needed anymore.

Add the necessary libraries to app/assets/javascripts/application.js:

//= require jquery
//= require jquery_ujs

What's included?

  • jQuery 1.7.2 (jquery, jquery.min, jquery_ujs)
  • Zepto 1.0rc1 (zepto, zepto.min)
  • Underscore.js 1.3.3 (underscore, underscore.min)
  • Handlebars 1.0.0.beta.6 (handlebars)
  • Backbone 0.9.2 (backbone, backbone.min)
  • Ember 0.9.8.1 (ember, ember.min)
  • Angular 1.0.1 (angular)

Acknowledgements

This gem is based on other gems, most notably jquery-rails.
