Handcrafted prototypes with ease.
Add Carpentry to Gemfile:
gem "carpentry"
Run the generator to create the prototypes folder (and inject the Carpentry route):
rails generate carpentry:install
Put your views in app/views/carpentry/prototypes and view them in
browser at /p/path_to_file.
Examples:
| URI Path | File path |
|---|---|
| /p | app/views/carpentry/prototypes/index.html.erb |
| /p/home | app/views/carpentry/prototypes/home.html.haml |
| /p/posts/new | app/views/carpentry/prototypes/posts/new.html.slim |
All available Rails helpers work nicely. Pure prototyping bliss!
If you want an special layout for your prototypes, stick the layout file
to app/views/layouts/carpentry/prototypes.html.[format].
You can customize the prototype URI prefix (/p) by editing the engine mount in your roures.rb file, for example:
mount_carpentry_at "/prototype"
Carpentry let's you add a #before_carpentry method in
ApplicationController, that will be run before any prototype. You can
use it, for example, to provide authentication or prevent prototypes
from being rendered in production.
Carpentry is compatible with Rails 4.1 and above.
Only Ruby 2.1.x and above are supported, check Travis CI for build details.
If you want to use Carpentry with Ruby 1.9.2 or below, use Carpentry v1.0.1.
When rendering a partial, you must specify the full path
(e.g. carpentry/prototypes/posts/form) unless the partial is in
app/views/carpentry/prototypes/.
