# What is rails-crud?

rails-crud is a plugin that abstracts a bunch of the repetitive CRUD actions out. Like scaffold, but I hate scaffold.

# Installation

Install it like a regular plugin.

# Usage

class Pastry < ActiveRecord::Base

validates_presence_of :name

end

class PastriesController

include CRUD::Base

end

Ta-da.

Really, that’s it.

Your controller has to be the plural of your model. Has to.

You’ll get the following actions:

• index

• new

• create

• edit

• update

• destroy

They’re ugly as sin, but they’ll work like you want, and they’re easily stylable.

# Customizations

You can customize the following views:

• field layout on the forms

• column layout on index

You can customize the following behavior:

• some. seriously, this is new documentation. I’ll get to it. Or look at the code. It’s not terribly complicated. Fork, update the docs and send me a pull request

# Requirements:

• haml

• validation_reflection (not really required, but trust me, you’ll want it.)

• formtastic
