# hisrc-rails [](https://travis-ci.org/haihappen/hisrc-rails)
Retina displays are coming! Be sure to make your Rails app ready today.
How? Well, there are a lot of different approaches:
* http://css-tricks.com/which-responsive-images-solution-should-you-use/
* http://www.alistapart.com/articles/responsive-images-how-they-almost-worked-and-what-we-need/
The one I like the most is [HiSRC](https://github.com/teleject/hisrc). However I don't like stuffing JavaScript files into my `vendor/assets` folder, so I created this gem with following benefits:
* It adds HiSRC to the Rails assets pipeline – no more messing around with javascript files (and a clean `vendor/assets` folder).
* It provides a little helper method to include retina ready images in your Rails views.
## Installation
In your `Gemfile`:
```ruby
gem 'hisrc-rails'
```
In your `application.js`:
```js
//= require hisrc
$(function() {
$('img').hisrc();
});
```
For detailed information about available configuration options be sure to checkout the [HiSRC readme](https://github.com/teleject/hisrc#setting-up).
## Usage
This gem provides a nice little helper method to optimize your views for retina screens: `responsive_image_tag`
`responsive_image_tag` accepts the same options as `image_tag`, and two additional options as well:
* `:'1x'` - If no 1x option is provided, the `src` is used.
* `:'2x'` - If no 2x options is provided, "@2x" is added to the `src`. So "rails.png" becomes "rails@2x.png".
## Examples
```ruby
responsive_image_tag("rails.png")
# =>
responsive_image_tag("http://placehold.it/100x100", :'1x' => "http://placehold.it/200x200", :'2x' => "http://placehold.it/400x400")
# =>
```
