Engine Yard Theme

A Rails gem / engine to make any Rails 3.1 app look like engineyard.com. Provides a generator for static assets and header and footer helper methods to dress your site in the shirt and pants of the Engine Yard theme.

Installation

Add engineyard-theme to your Gemfile

gem 'engineyard-theme'

Usage

Wrap your application.html yield with the header and footer helpers:

<% # application.html.erb %>
<%= header %>
<%= yield %>
<%= footer %>

If you want to add anything within the <head></head> tags or just before the </body> tag, you can pass a block to the helpers:

<%= header do %>
  <%= stylesheet_link_tag 'additional_styles' %>
<% end %>
<%= yield %>
<%= footer do %>
  <!--  this comment only appears on my sub-site -->
<% end %>

Default navigation links and default web service javascript (Google Analytics, Optimizely, etc.) can be disabled by setting values to false:

header(add_navigation,add_js)

The layout supports content overwritting by supplying defining content_for the following:

title, description, keywords, body_id, branding

Modifying / Testing

Inside this repo is a example folder, containing a Rails 3.1 app configured to load the gem. You can use this to add any changes in styles. You can also run:

bundle exec cucumber features

...within that folder to test the gem as though it was installed in a Rails app, so that you know it still works.
