# Nice Admin

  A prebuilt and skinned admin centre. Because, making an admin for everything is really annoying.

# Install

  simply add the following to your gemfile
  
  ```ruby
    gem 'nice_admin'
  ```
  
  Then add the following to your config/environments/production.rb
  
  ```ruby
    config.assets.precompile += %w( nice_admin.js nice_admin.css )
  ```
  
# Configuring

  Create an initializer called nice_admin.rb in config/initialisers, inside you can set the following..
  
  ```ruby
    NiceAdmin.site_title = 'MySiteName - Admin'
    NiceAdmin.site_name = 'MySiteName'
  ```

  Create an admin controller in your application and have it inherit from nice_admin like so
  
  Notice this is where you also define the navigation items and include any authenticate you may need.
  
  Nice admin DOES NOT DO AUTHENTICATION, this before filter is from devise
  
  ```ruby
    class AdminController < NiceAdminController
    
      # devise before filter
      before_filter :authenticate_admin!
      
      # defining nav items
      nice_admin_nav do |nav|
        nav.item 'Home', '/admin'
        nav.item 'Admins', '/admin/admins'
      end

    end
  ```
  
  Now, when making admin controller they should inherit from your AdminController
  nice_admin supports pagination via kaminari automatically
  
  ```ruby
    class ArticlesController < AdminController
    
      def index
        @admins = Admin.order('created_at DESC').page(params[:page]).per(20)
      end
    
    end
  ```
