HTML5 Layout Generator for Rails 3

It is a HTML5 layuout generator that generates the layout file based upon the HTML5 Boilerplate code.

The generator takes one argument which will be the name of the layout and stylesheet files. If no argument is passed then it defaults to "application".

Usage info:

In your Gemfile, inside the `:development add
gem 'html5_layout 
rails g html5_layout -h

Example:

rails generate html5_layout admin

This will create:

create  public/stylesheets/admin.css
create  public/stylesheets/handheld.css
create  public/javascripts/modernizr-1.5.min.js
create  public/javascripts/jquery-1.4.2.min.js
create  public/javascripts/dd_belatedpng.js
create  app/views/layouts/admin.html.erb

If you use sass, then the following command is for you.

rails g html5_layout --sass

This will add two gems, compass and compass-960-plugin, in the Gemfile. So, you need to run bundle install. The generator will also add 3 layout helpers to use in the views.

• To set the title of the page, you can call <%= title "The page title" %>
• To add js files in the layout, use <% javascript "foo, bar" %>
• To add stylesheet files, use <% stylesheet "foo, bar" %>

This generator is heavily based upon the Ryan Bates's NiftyGenerator.
