Way way way outDated. Should probably be deleted. Anyone using this?
Bootsy is a WYSIWYG editor for Rails based on Bootstrap3-wysihtml5 with image uploads using CarrierWave.
- ImageMagick or GraphicsMagick (for MiniMagick);
- Rails
4; - Bootstrap
4fully installed in your app.
- Add Bootsy to your Gemfile:
gem 'bootsy'- Run the bundle command to install it:
bundle install- Run the install generator:
rails generate bootsy:installIt will include the javascripts and stylesheets in the assets pipeline,
create the bootsy.rb initializer and add a copy of the english translations.
Note: If your project uses SASS or LESS and application.css does not exist,
you will be required to require bootsy manually using *= require bootsy or if you prefer
to import assets yourself @import "bootsy";
- Add and run migrations:
rake bootsy:install:migrations
rake db:migrateJust call bootsy_area in your FormBuilder instances, the
same way you'd call textarea. Example:
<%= form_for(@post) do |f| %>
<%= f.label :title %>
<%= f.text_field :title %>
<%= f.label :content %>
<%= f.bootsy_area :content %>
<%= f.submit %>
<% end %>Bootsy will group the uploaded images as galleries and associate them to one of
your models. For instance, if you have a Post model and you want to use bootsy_area
with it, you must include the Bootsy::Container module:
class Post < ActiveRecord::Base
include Bootsy::Container
endDon't forget to ensure the association between your model objects with Bootsy
image galleries. For strong_parameters, you must whitelist the bootsy_image_gallery_id parameter
in your controller:
private
def post_params
params.require(:post).permit(:title, :content, :bootsy_image_gallery_id)
endBootsy with Simple Form builders
You can use bootsy as an input type in SimpleForm::FormBuilder instances. Example:
<%= simple_form_for @post do |f| %>
<%= f.input :title %>
<%= f.input :content, as: :bootsy %>
<%= f.button :submit %>
<% end %>You can customize Bootsy through a hash of editor_options:
You can enable and disable features as you like. For instance, if you don't want link and color features:
<%= f.bootsy_area :my_attribute, editor_options: { link: false, color: false } %>Available options are: :blockquote, :font_styles, :emphasis, :lists, :html, :link, :image and :color.
By default Bootsy alerts the user about unsaved changes if the page is closed or reloaded. You can disable this feature with:
<%= f.bootsy_area :my_attribute, editor_options: { alert_unsaved: false } %>If you don't want to have image uploads, just call bootsy_area in a form builder not
associated to a Bootsy::Container model. This way users will still be able to insert
images in the text area using an external image URL.
You can set the default editor options, image sizes available (small, medium,
large and/or its original), dimensions and more. Take a look at Bootsy's initalizer
file /config/initializers/bootsy.rb in your app and feel free to uncomment and change
the options as you like.
Bootsy defines some I18n keys. English translations are added by default to your
config/locales directory as bootsy.en.yml. You can use it as a template
to translate Bootsy to your language.
Here are some examples.
You also need to translate Bootsy on the JavaScript side. Just follow
this example.
Bootsy will try to guess the locale based on the lang attribute of the page's <html> tag.
You can set the locale directly by setting a data-bootsy-locale attribute on your <textarea>.
