Simple Form Epic Editor

Integrates the markdown editor Epic Editor with Rails and Simple Form.

This gem adjusts the default theme of Epic Editor and places the toolbar above the editing field.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'simple_form_epic_editor'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install simple_form_epic_editor

To make it work you need to require the javascripts in application.js:

//= require simple_form_epic_editor

Use in forms:

= form.input :body, as: :epic_editor

Styling for the editor is separated into three files:

• base.css
• preview.css
• editor.css

The default styling can be overridden by adding your own version of any or all of the three files in lib/assets/stylesheets/simple_form_epic_editor/default_theme/

Alternatively you can configure the editor to use another theme.

You can change the default button texts in an initializer:

# config/initializers/simple_form_epic_editor.rb

SimpleFormEpicEditor::EpicEditorInput.configure do |c|
  c.commands = [
    @commands = {
      edit: 'Edit',
      preview: 'Render'
    }
  ]
end

In the initializer you can assign any or all of the three stylesheets a new path:

# config/initializers/simple_form_epic_editor.rb

SimpleFormEpicEditor::EpicEditorInput.configure do |c|
  c.theme = {
    base: '/simple_form_epic_editor/your_theme_name/base.css',
    preview: '/simple_form_epic_editor/your_theme_name/preview.css',
    editor: '/simple_form_epic_editor/your_theme_name/editor.css'
  }
end
