RailsPatternView

Ever annoyed with having to copy/paste the Rails views around for very common pages, this gem will solve it

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'rails_pattern_view'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install rails_pattern_view

Usage

class CatsController < ApplicationController
  use_pattern :ajax_table

  def new; end
  def edit; end
end

class DogsController < ApplicationController
  use_pattern :ajax_table, only: [:new]

  def new; end
  def edit; end
end

Add this in your views

views/shared/patterns/ajax_table/new.erb
views/shared/patterns/ajax_table/edit.erb
views/dogs/edit.erb

Both CatsController & DogsController now can share the views within ajax_table

Options

only

use_pattern :ajax_table, only: [:new, :edit]

except

user_pattern :ajax_table, except: [:some_action]

mapping: Share 1 template for all actions

use_pattern :ajax_table, mapping: {:refresh => [:create, :update, :destroy]}

all "create/update/destroy" actions will now render "views/shared/patterns/ajax_table/refresh"

Development

After checking out the repo, run bin/setup to install dependencies. Then, run rake spec to run the tests. You can also run bin/console for an interactive prompt that will allow you to experiment.

To install this gem onto your local machine, run bundle exec rake install. To release a new version, update the version number in version.rb, and then run bundle exec rake release, which will create a git tag for the version, push git commits and tags, and push the .gem file to rubygems.org.
