Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

And then execute:

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install nesta-plugin-sharethis

Usage

  1. Add share this configs.

     # file: config/config.yml
     sharethis: SHARETHIS_PARTENT_ID
    
     sharethis_buttons: # optional
     - :twitter
     - :linkedin
     - :reddit
     - :digg
     - :facebook_like
     # the aboce are the defaults
    

IMPORTANT: Notice the above sharethis_buttons are all Symbols -- meaning, they start with a colon (:) -- which is required.

See lib/nesta-plugin-sharethis/sharethis.yml for a full list.

If you would like to add more see the Overrides section below.

  1. Add the 'sharethis_javascript' helper to your your layout.haml:

     -#- file: views/layout.haml
     <!DOCTYPE html>
      %html(lang="en")
       %head
         %meta(charset="utf-8")
         - if @description
           %meta(name="description" content=@description)
         - if @keywords
           %meta(name="keywords" content=@keywords)
         = sharethis_javascript
         %title= @title
    
     -#- ... rest of layout.haml ...
    
  2. Add the 'sharethis_buttons' helper to your layout, where you want your buttons to appear.

     -#- file: views/layout.haml
    
     -#- ... rest of layout.haml ...
     = sharethis_buttons
     -#- ... rest of layout.haml ...
    

If you're using a theme like postal3, which already has share functionality, simply replace it's buttons with the helper above.

Overrides

To override defaults (see lib/nesta-plugin-sharethis/sharethis.yml) create a sharethis.yml file in your config directory and this plugin will merge it in to my defaults. Be sure to use the same format as my sharethis.yml.
