A rails_admin plugin to edit site contents from the frontend.

If the user is logged in rails_admin a fixed bar on bottom is shown. It allows to edit (or delete) the current record (if in a show page) or to create a new one.

Demo: heroku app

• Add to Gemfile: gem 'rails_admin_live_edit'

• Add to application layout (in body) (erb example): <%= render 'live_edit/ra_live_editor' %>

• [Optional] Instead of letting the model name being guest from the controller name that rendered the view you can render the live_editor partial passing the target_model and/or the target_model_id like this: <%= render partial: 'live_edit/ra_live_editor', locals: { target_model: 'post', target_model_id: 42 } %>

• Edit or create app/assets/javascripts/rails_admin/custom/ui.js and add: //= require rails_admin/plugins/live_edit/ui.js

• This plugin use current_user method to check if the user is logged in; to bypass this check it is possible to define a current_user helper method.
