TagName: 'someHtmlTag' - This is the element that would wrap the template content. Template: JST - This is the template (layout) our backbone view would use, you can set multiple templates to a single view.Įvents: 'event selector' : 'method' - This is really helpful because it binds all of the declared events to functions, so we don't have to bind events manually. This means that the events binding in this view would only be available for elements within '#posts'. The backbone views have attributes like the models and collections, let's see what these are for.Įl: '#posts' - The parent element of the whole view expressed as a css selector. We have to bind events and create the layouts using both views and templates. This creates a new instance of our Router which will handle the whole CRUD. It works as a namespace, when the request is sent, your parameters are going to look like this ) ParamRoot: 'post' - This is a property used by the gem, its not a backbone property. Now go and open the post.js.coffee you will see that both a model and a collection were created now lets focus on the properties of those objects. rails g scaffold Post title:string content:string Now, let's create a rails scaffold and a backbone model for our post.
Postview ruby generator#
The gem itself comes packed with some a fancy scaffold generator that almost does all the work for you, but, we'll put this aside and start everything from scratch, so, lets start with this generator that creates the basic structure for our backbone files: rails g backbone:install
Postview ruby install#
Now we have to include Backbone within our rails application, but, instead of downloading the file and put it into the assets folder manually, we are going to install the backbone-rails gem, so, now let's open our Gemfile and type the following and don't forget to bundle afterwards. This one handles the browser url box so we can trigger events when a route matches right after a hash tag (#).įirst let's create our rails project: rails new blog This one is simple, templates are like a rails views where you put all your layouts. Call answering, routing and transferring, customer intake, messages, and more are. Ruby can work as a full-time extension of your team. In the office In your pocket In 24/7/365. This is where you bind all the Javascript events to the layout objects. From full-time to just-when-you-need-it, Ruby’s virtual receptionists have got you coveredmaking the most out of every customer conversation.
If you think this is the place where you put all the layouts like in rails, well its not. This is like regular rails models, where all our data is stored and a large part of the logic.īackbone collections are simply an ordered set of models. If you are not familiar with coffescript, take a look at this post from one of my fellas.īefore we start let me explain some basic concepts about backbone and it's components:
Postview ruby how to#
So, if you are not familiar with the framework and want to learn how to use backbone in your projects go ahead and check out this little tutorial where we'll be creating a basic blog.
Postview ruby code#
Recently, I have been involved in a couple of projects where we use a lot of Backbone.js, and even though I'm still learning, I can definitively help you out with the basics on how to code a basic CRUD with Backbone and Rails. You might use that exact same name, but it's better to write your own class that is added to that specific html element or you'll override more than you want. Go into your custom.css file and write a new version of that css class.
Look at the css class on the right to see what is being called.
The Chrome developer tools window will open below and that element will be highlighted. The easiest way is to look at the page in Chrome, right click on the "body" element and when the popup menu shows, go down to Inspect Element. Many of the Rails engines tend to "hide" the css from you, but it's often better to leave them alone anyway and make changes in your own custom.css file (or if you're using SASS). It doesn't have anything to do with your model, what you're needing to do is change the CSS for that element.
