Flutie

Build Status

Flutie provides some utility view helpers for use with Rails applications.

There are helpers for setting a page title and for generating body classes.

Installation & Upgrading

Flutie is a Railtie. We support the versions of Ruby and Rails listed in .travis.yml.

It should be run as a gem and included in your Gemfile:

gem "flutie"

Helpers

Flutie provides helper methods for use within Rails application layouts and views.

Page Title

The page_title method can be used like:

<title><%= page_title %></title>

By default, it will produce results like:

<title>Appname : page title</title>
  • "App name" comes from the module name of the rails application created by your app, i.e. Appname::Application will produce "Appname"
  • "page" comes from trying content_for(:page_title) and assumes you are using content_for with :page_title symbol on your pages.
  • The separator defaults to " : "

These can be overridden by passing an options hash including :app_name, :page_title_symbol and :separator hash keys, ie:

content_for(:site_page_title, 'My title of my page')
page_title(:app_name => 'My app name', :page_title_symbol => :site_page_title, :separator => " | ")
=> "My app name | My title of my page"

Body Class

The body_class method can be used like:

<body class="<%= body_class %>">

This will produce a string including the controller name and controller-action name. For example, The WidgetsController#show action would produce:

<body class="widgets widgets-show">

Anything which has been added via content_for(:extra_body_classes) will be added to the end, for example:

content_for(:extra_body_classes, 'special-page')
<body class="<%= body_class %>">
<body class="widgets widgets-show special-page">
