A Ruby on Rails app template for even rapid-er prototyping.
To create a fresh app from the Allele template with a remote environment on Heroku, simply run:
rails new app_name -d mysql -m https://raw.github.com/madebymany/allele/master/allele.rb
- Authentication from Devise
- A front-end framework in the shape of Bootstrap
- Image uploads with Carrierwave and file storage on S3 via Fog
- Save time on basic CRUD methods with Inherited Resources
- Neat and easy to code forms with Simple Form
- Premailer and MailView takes a lot of hassle out of handling HTML emails
- ExceptionNotifier lets you know when a user breaks something
- Free server ops from Heroku and application mailers from SendGrid
Note: we add a nofollow, noindex
tag and and disallow
in robots.txt by default
For basic authorisation with cancan
and content management with activeadmin
run:
rails generate allele_admin
Check out the Wiki for some more quick 'n' dirty functionality.
While Rails 4 is now a stable release, many of the gems we rely on are not, roadmap:
- Move to Rails 4 once ActiveAdmin and SimpleForm cut reliable releases
- ...then write a Sir-Trevor V3 generator
