ElastiCSS for Rails 3.1 Asset Pipeline

ElastiCSS is a simple css framework to layout web-based interfaces, based on the printed layout techniques of 4 columns but with capabilities to unlimited column combinations. and capacity to make elastic, fixed and liquid layout easily

elasticss-rails project integrates ElastiCSS framework for Rails 3.1 Asset Pipeline (Rails 3.2 supported)

Include ElastiCSS in Gemfile;

gem "elasticss-rails"

or you can install from latest build;

gem 'elasticss-rails', :git => 'git@github.com:kurenn/elasticss-rails.git'

Install the gem using the bundle command:

bundle install

You can run the generator command

rails g elasticss:install

Or you can add them manually:

Add to your app/assets/stylesheets/application.css

		*= require elastic

If you need to add the print support you can add it as well

	*= require elastic.print

Add to your app/assets/javascripts/application.js

	//= require elastic

Layout (generates ElastiCSS layout) - (ERB and HAML supported):

You need to first add the haml-rails to the gemfile:

gem 'haml-rails'

And last but not least if you want HAML to be your default template engine you need to change your config/application.rb file as shown:

config.generators do |generator|
  generator.template_engine :haml
end

Usage:

rails g elasticss:layout [LAYOUT_NAME] [LAYOUT_TYPE]

Example:

rails g elasticss:layout application 3_columns

But wait there is more:

rails g elasticss:layout application right_sidebar

rails g elasticss:layout application left_sidebar
