Trix Gem

Want to include Basecamp's awesome Trix WYSIWYG editor in your Ruby on Rails application? You've come to the right place!

Installation

The trix-gem makes it easy to drop Trix into Rails with the asset pipeline.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'trix-gem'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install trix-gem

Usage

Import Trix styles in app/assets/stylesheets/application.css:

*= require trix

Require Trix Javascript magic in app/assets/javascripts/application.js:

//= require trix

Finally, any place where you would like to use the Trix editor in your forms, just use the trix_editor helper:

f.trix_editor :body

If you are using the Formtastic gem or the Simple Form gem, you can do this:

f.input :body, as: :trix_editor
