Installation

Add BardStatic to Gemfile:

gem "bard-static"

Usage

Two view directories are exposed: static and mockups.

Static: pages in this view path are intended for production, and are rendered with the application layout.

URI Path	File path
/	app/views/static/index.html.erb
/home	app/views/static/home.html.haml
/posts/new	app/views/static/posts/new.html.slim

Mockups: pages in this view path are intended for prototyping, and are rendered with no layout at all. However, you can use the layout block helper in the template to render within a layout, if you like.

URI Path	File path
/mockups	app/views/mockups/index.html.erb
/mockups/home	app/views/mockups/home.html.haml
/mockups/posts/new	app/views/mockups/posts/new.html.slim

All available Rails helpers work nicely. Pure prototyping bliss!

Hooks

BardStatic let's you add a #before_bard_static method in ApplicationController, that will be run before any prototype. You can use it, for example, to provide authentication or prevent prototypes from being rendered in production.

Gotchas

When rendering a partial, you must specify the full path (e.g. mockups/posts/form) unless the partial is in app/views/mockups/.
