Yaripe (Yet Another RESTful in_place_edit)
===========================================

Yaripe is an Ajax Inplace Editor solution, that uses the RESTful controllers, and JQuery, to make a better solution
for in place edit with rails...

This Plugin is based in REST in Place (http://github.com/janv/rest_in_place) and in better-edit-in-place (http://github.com/nakajima/better-edit-in-place/tree/master) ,
Thanks for the ideas and for the code, guys!

It uses the HTTP method put, parse the response in JSON format, and make some magic :-)

How to Install
----------------

script/plugin install git://github.com/tchandy/yaripe.git

Dependencies
-------------

JRails (http://github.com/aaronchi/jrails/tree/master)


Examples
----------

Your routes.rb:

map.resources :users

Just make the Update action of your controller respond json:

format.json { render :json => @user }

Example:

def update
@user = User.find(params[:id])

respond_to do |format|
if @user.update_attributes(params[:user])
flash[:notice] = 'User was successfully updated.'
format.html { redirect_to(@user) }
format.json { render :json => @user }
else
format.html { render :action => "edit" }
end
end
end


Add the Javascript to your views:

<%= javascript_include_tag :defaults %>
<%= javascript_include_tag "jquery.yaripe.js" %>

In your views:

<%= edit_in_place @user, :first_name %>

For date fields:

<%= edit_in_place @user, :date_of_birth, {:field_type => "date"} %>

For select fields:

<%= edit_in_place @user, :relationship, {:field_type => "select", :select_options => ["Single", "Married"] } %>

Setting the url manualy:

<%= edit_in_place @user, :first_name, { :url => admin_user_path(@user) } %>

For nested routes:

<%= edit_in_place [@user, @post], :title %>

TODO
------

- Write somes Specs
- Javascript Refactor
- Better documentation
