Flutie
======
[](http://travis-ci.org/thoughtbot/flutie)
Flutie provides extra ActionView view helpers for use with Rails applications. Previous versions created default application styles.
Please look to [Bourbon](https://github.com/thoughtbot/bourbon) and [Neat](https://github.com/thoughtbot/neat) gems for style defaults now.
Installation & Upgrading
------------------------
Flutie is a Railtie meant for use with Rails. It works with versions of Rails greater than 3.0.
Flutie is recommended to be run as a gem and included in your Gemfile:
gem 'flutie'
Helpers
-------
Flutie provides several helper methods for layouts as well.
#### page_title
The `page_title` method can be used like:
<%= page_title %>
By default, it will produce results like:
Appname : page title
* "App name" comes from the module name of the rails application created by your app, i.e. `Appname::Application` will produce "Appname"
* "page" comes from trying `content_for(:page_title)` and assumes you are using `content_for` with `:page_title` symbol on your pages.
* The separator defaults to " : "
These can be overridden by passing an options hash including `:app_name`, `:page_title_symbol` and `:separator` hash keys, ie:
content_for(:site_page_title, 'My title of my page')
page_title(:app_name => 'My app name', :page_title_symbol => :site_page_title, :separator => " | ")
=> "My app name | My title of my page"
#### body_class
The `body_class` method can be used like:
This will produce a string including the controller name and controller-action name. For example, The WidgetsController#show action would produce:
Anything which has been added via `content_for(:extra_body_classes)` will be added to the end, for example:
content_for(:extra_body_classes, 'special-page')
