OpalBox-JQuery Build Status Code Climate

A box to compile and run Ruby code on your website. This plugin uses OpalRB libraries.

Installation

Add the dist files to your project. You will need js/opalbox.jquery.min.js, css/opalbox.min.css and a theme, for example css/themes/opalbox.light.min.css. You can add all themes adding css/themes/all_themes.min.css file.

Now, link it into your website. In <head> tag:

<!-- Styles --> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<route to opalbox.min.css>" /> <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="<route to theme or all themes>" />

Javascript files can be defined on <head> tag or at bottom of your website.

<!-- JS Dependencies (You can use CDN or local files) --> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://cdn.opalrb.org/opal/0.8.1/opal.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="http://cdn.opalrb.org/opal/0.8.1/opal-parser.min.js"></script> <script type="text/javascript" src="https://code.jquery.com/jquery-1.11.3.min.js"></script> <!-- JS File --> <script type="text/javascript" src="<route to opalbox.jquery.min.js>"></script>

Use

To create OpalBoxes, define an HTML element. Predefined ruby code can be inside of this tags:

<div class="ruby-code"> 	return 1 </div>

Next call to opalBox in a script:

$(document).ready(function(){ 	$('.ruby-code').opalBox(); });

This code create isolated opalBoxes to run your Ruby code.

Options

opalBox() function accepts an object with options. Available options and default values are:

// Default options! defaults = {   // Theme of the opalBox   theme: 'light',   // Listener when compile and show the data   onComplete: null,   // Title of the block   title: 'Ruby code',   // Placeholder when there aren't any result   result: 'Result will appear here',   // Auto-adjust height of the textarea to the code   autoadjust: false };

Themes

List of available themes:

Show them in action at Themes

Create a theme

First of all, I recommend you to read Develop section. To create theme, create a file on src/sass/themes with name opalbox.your_theme.scss. Insert all styles inside of a global class. The name of the class will be the string of theme option (see options). For example, for light theme:

.opbox.light {   /* Your style... */ }

You can use light theme as example.

Develop

To work with opalBox-jquery you will need to install NodeJS, NPM and Gulp.

After install base dependencies, clone the repository and run npm install to download development dependencies:

git clone https://github.com/Angelmmiguel/opalbox-jquery.git cd opalbox-jquery npm install 

All changes must be performed on src/sass and src/js folders, because src/css and dist folders are generated automatically with Gulp.

When you finish your changes, execute gulp on your terminal and all minified/compiled files will be generated.

Contribute

To contribute opalBox-jquery:

  • Create an issue with the contribution: bug, enhancement (except when create a new theme)
  • Fork the repository and make all changes you need (See develop)
  • Compile all files with gulp
  • Create a pull request when you finish
