Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'mousevc'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install mousevc

Usage

Require Mousevc
```
require 'mousevc'
```

Create a view in your views directory

<%# views/show_cheese.txt.erb %>

Hello Mousevc!
I like <%= @cheese %>!
What kind of cheese do you like?

Or just use a string!

view = %Q{<%# views/show_cheese.txt.erb %>\nHello Mousevc!\nI like <%= @cheese %>!\nWhat kind of cheese do you like?}

Create your default controller

# jerry_controller.rb

class JerryController < Mousevc::Controller
    def find_cheese
        view = %Q{<%# views/show_cheese.txt.erb %>\nHello Mousevc!\nI like <%= @cheese %>!\nWhat kind of cheese do you like?}
        cheese = @model.cheese
        @view.render(view, :cheese => cheese)
        Mousevc::Input.prompt
    end
end

Create the corresponding model

# jerry_model.rb

class JerryModel < Mousevc::Model
    def cheese
        @cheese = "Swiss cheese"
    end
end

Create a class that extends Mousevc::App

NOTE: as of v0.0.6 Mousevc requires that the views path be absolute, e.g "#{File.dirname(__FILE__)}/views"


# jerry.rb

class Jerry < Mousevc::App
end

Jerry.new(
    :controller => 'JerryController',
    :model => 'JerryModel',
    :action => :find_cheese,
    :views => "#{File.dirname(__FILE__)}/views"
).run

Run mouse run!
```
$ ruby jerry.rb
```

Enjoy the view!


Hello Mousevc!
I like Swiss cheese!
What kind of cheese do you like?
