Questionable¶ ↑

Questionable is a Rails engine that make it easier to create and answer surveys through a web interface.

You can create your questions and options through the included ActiveAdmin interface. If ActiveAdmin is installed in your application, Questionable will automatically add admin pages.

Then you can use the included partial template and controller for displaying the questions and recording your users’ answers.

Installation¶ ↑

Add Questionable to your Gemfile:

gem 'questionable_surveys'

or for the latest:

gem 'questionable_surveys', :git => 'git://github.com/bespokepost/questionable.git'

Then run:

bundle install
rake questionable:install:migrations
rake db:migrate

Add Questionable to your config/routes.rb:

mount Questionable::Engine, :at => 'questions'

Optionally add the following to app/assets/stylesheet/application.css:

*= require questionable

Usage¶ ↑

Create some questions¶ ↑

Create one or more Questions. Supported input_types include select, multiselect, radio, checkboxes, date, and string.

# input_type may be select, multiselect, radio, checkboxes, or string.
q = Questionable::Question.create(title: 'What is your favorite color?', input_type: 'select', note: 'This is important')

Add Options, unless input_type is ‘string’

q.options.create(title: 'Red',   position: 1)
q.options.create(title: 'Green', position: 2)
q.options.create(title: 'Blue',  position: 3)

Questions must be assigned a ‘subject’ before they are used. They subject can be either an object, via a polymorphic association, or something general like “preferences”, which we can pass here as a symbol or string.

e.g.

@product = Product.find(123)
Questionable::Assignment.create(question_id: q.id, subject: @product)

Questionable::Assignment.create(question_id: q.id, subject_type: 'preferences')

In your controller¶ ↑

Here’s we fetch question-assignments for a particular symbol:

@assignments = Questionable::Assignment.with_subject(:preferences)

and here, for a product object:

@product = Product.find(params[:id])
@assignments = Questionable::Assignment.with_subject(@product)

In your view ¶ ↑

With HAML

= render partial: 'questionable/assignments/form', locals: { assignments: @assignments }

Or ERB

<%= render partial: 'questionable/assignments/form', locals: { assignments: @assignments } %>
