# holidays_img [![Gem Version](https://badge.fury.io/rb/holidays_img.svg)](https://badge.fury.io/rb/holidays_img) This gem is a simple wrapper for Rails's `image_tag` helper. Leveraging the `holidays` gem, it allows you to easily load images based on the holiday occurring on any given date. ## Installation Add the gem to your application's Gemfile: ```ruby gem 'holidays_img' ``` And then execute: ```bash $ bundle ``` ## Usage Simply use the `holidays_image_tag` helper as you would a standard Rails `image_tag`: ``` <%= holidays_image_tag 'image.jpg' %> ``` To ensure proper loading of images, adhere to the following naming convention: - Have a default image, used for when a day does not fall on a holiday (also acts as a fallback for when a holiday image cannot be found) - Name your holiday images in the following format: `original_name_holiday_name.ext` - Ensure all holiday images are in the same directory Naming Example: ``` image.jpg image_christmas_day.jpg image_new_year_s_day.jpg image_independence_day.jpg ... ``` See the Holidays gem's [definition files](https://github.com/holidays/definitions) for a list of holidays for any available region. ## Configuration You can configure options using an initializer: ```ruby # config/initializers/holidays_img.rb HolidaysImg.configure do |config| # Load holidays based on region, defaults to :us config.region = :ca # Only load images for holidays you specify config.whitelist = ['Christmas Day', 'Mother\'s Day'] # Load custom holidays from file, can also pass array of file paths config.custom_holidays = '/path/to/custom_holidays.yml' end ``` For info on how to format custom holiday definitions, see the Holidays gem's [definition syntax documentation](https://github.com/holidays/definitions/blob/master/SYNTAX.md). ## License The gem is available as open source under the terms of the [MIT License](http://opensource.org/licenses/MIT).
