Using with Rails

Add to Gemfile

Add hackney_template to your app's Gemfile:

gem 'hackney_template', git: 'https://github.com/unboxed/hackney_template'

In a production system you'll want to pin a more specific reference for stability. For example (where c4400e is the hash of the specific commit to want to pin to):

gem 'hackney_template', git: 'https://github.com/unboxed/hackney_template', ref: 'c4400e'

Use the layout

Add this line to the bottom of your application layout view (usually in app/views/layouts/application.html.erb):

<%= render file: 'layouts/hackney_template' %>

Customise the template

hackney_template provides blocks you can insert content into, to customise the basic layout.

For example, to set a <title> for your page you can set content for the :page_title block, and it will be inserted into the hackney_template layout.:

<% content_for :page_title, "My page title" %>

Or to add content to <head>, for stylesheets or similar:

<% content_for :head do %>
  <%= stylesheet_link_tag 'application', media: 'all' %>
  <%= csrf_meta_tags %>
<% end %>

Check out the full list of blocks you can use to customise the template.
