To get started with a new Rails project
Added to Gemfile
gem 'active_scaffold'
For rails >= 5.1, add jquery-rails to Gemfile, and install generator will jquery to application.js before rails-ujs. Also it's possible to load jquery in your layout before application.js using CDN (e.g. jquery-rails-cdn). You can replace rails-ujs with jquery_ujs, although rails-ujs should work (never load both).
gem 'jquery-rails'
For rails >= 6.0, installer generator will create app/assets/javascripts/application.js, add it to assets.precompile array and add javascript_include_tag in layout, as ActiveScaffold doesn't work with webpack yet. Jquery may be loaded by packs or assets pipeline.
Run the following commands, for rails 4.2
bundle install
rails g active_scaffold:install
bundle exec rake db:create
rails g active_scaffold:resource Model [attrs]
bundle exec rake db:migrate
Or run the following commands, for rails >= 5
bundle install
rails g active_scaffold:install
rails db:create
rails g active_scaffold:resource Model [attrs]
rails db:migrate
Run the app and visit localhost:3000/<plural_model>
Threadsafe can be enabled calling ActiveScaffold.threadsafe! in an initializer. It should be enabled on app start and it can't be disabled. Threadsafety is a new feature and not well tested yet.
See Wiki for instructions on customising ActiveScaffold and to find the full API details.

A ruby translation project managed on Locale that's open to all!
- Edit the translations directly on the active_scaffold project on Locale.
- That's it!
- The maintainer will then pull translations from the Locale project and push to Github.
