Installation

Gemfile

gem "durl-rails"

And run bundle install. The rest of the installation depends on whether the asset pipeline is being used.

Rails 3.1 or greater (with asset pipeline enabled)

The dURL files will be added to the asset pipeline and available for you to use. add these lines to app/assets/javascripts/application.js:

//= require durl

Rails 3.0 (or greater with asset pipeline disabled)

This gem adds a single generator: durl:install. Running the generator will copy dURL to the public/javascripts directory.

This gem will also hook into the Rails configuration process, adding dURL to the javascript files included by the javascript_include_tag(:defaults) call. While this gem contains the minified and un-minified versions of dURL, only the minified versions will be included in the :defaults when Rails is run in production or test mode (un-minified versions will be included when Rails is run in development mode).

To invoke the generator, run:

rails generate durl:install

You're done!
