To include nvd3-rails into your rails project add
gem "nvd3-rails"
To your Projects Gemfile with https://rubygems.org as your gem source.
To add all nvd3 javascript files into your asset pipeline add:
//= require nvd3-rails
in app/assets/javascripts/application.js
also add:
*= require nvd3-rails
in app/assets/stylesheets/application.css
Note as of today nvd3 clutters the model naming e.g. lineWithFisheyeChart.js and lineChart.js export their model both as lineChart.
If you only need a subset of models e.g. lineChart you can add:
//= require nvd3/lib/d3.v2
//= require nvd3/src/core
//= require nvd3/src/tooltip
//= require nvd3/src/utils.js
//= require nvd3/src/models/lineChart
//= require nvd3/src/models/legend.js
//= require nvd3/src/models/axis.js
//= require nvd3/src/models/scatter.js
//= require nvd3/src/models/line.js
to your application.js
This was originally a fork of https://github.com/adeven/nvd3-rails so most of the credit goes to adeven for making this. I just updated it to be compatible with asset_sync for Rails and uploaded it to RubyGems.
