This toolkit includes a shared header and some other view helpers designed for our Biola web applications.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'biola_frontend_toolkit'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install biola_frontend_toolkit

• bootstrap-sass
• font-awesome-rails
• slim

Your layout file should look something like this

doctype html
html lang="en-us"
  head
    / frontend_toolkit/head includes default html head tags and csrf_meta_tags
    = render 'frontend_toolkit/head', title: 'Direcotry'
    = stylesheet_link_tag "application", media: "all"
  body class="#{controller_name} #{action_name}"
    = render 'frontend_toolkit/header'
    = yield
    = javascript_include_tag "application"

Include the following in application.css.scss. This will add require statements for bootstrap and font-awesome automatically. It also includes some biola variables and mixins.

@import "biola-frontend-toolkit";

Include the following in application.js. This includes jquery, jquery_ujs, and bootstrap automatically.

//= require biola-frontend-toolkit

• current_user - When a user is logged in
• logout_path - Should return a link to the logout path
• /whateverpath?login=true - Should be caught by ApplicationController and redirect to login page if not already logged in.

Create a new file called /config/initializers/biola_frontend_toolkit.rb

BiolaFrontendToolkit.configure do |config|
  config.app_name = Settings.app.name
  config.app_version = Version.current  # optional
  config.relative_root = Settings.app.relative_url_root
  config.release_phase = Settings.release.phase

  # App Links
  config.app_links = [
    {title: 'Gmail', url: 'http://mail.biola.edu', icon: 'envelope-square'},
    {title: 'Forms', url: 'http://forms.biola.edu', icon: 'check-square-o'},
  ]

  # Profile Links
  config.profile_links = [
    {title: 'My Account', url: [:my_account, :user], icon: 'user'},
  ]

  # Google Analytics   ## Optional ##
  config.ga_account = 'UA-XXXXXXXX-XX'
  config.ga_domain = 'biola.edu'
  config.ga_enabled = true   # defaults to false
end

Use this partial to include default html head tags and csrf_meta_tags

Use frontend_toolkit/header for content publishers and other employee web apps.

Use frontend_toolkit/prerelease_banner when your app is in the alpha or beta phases. Make sure BiolaFrontendToolkit.config.release_phase is set to alpha or beta.
