# Rack::JQueryUI::Themes # [jQuery-UI](http://jqueryui.com/) ***themes*** CDN script tags and fallback in one neat package. ### Build status ### Master branch: [](https://travis-ci.org/yb66/rack-jquery_ui-themes) ### Why? ### I get tired of copy and pasting and downloading and moving… jQuery files and script tags etc. This does it for me (along with https://github.com/yb66/rack-jquery), and keeps version management nice 'n' easy. ### See also ### [Rack::JQuery](https://github.com/yb66/rack-jquery) [Rack::JQueryUI](https://github.com/yb66/rack-jquery_ui) They're not dependencies, but if you're going to use this then I bet you'll be interested in using them. ### What's with the plural ### Rack::JQueryUI::Theme doesn't sound right to me, as it's accessing the _Themes_ service/files. I doubt you'll ever instantiate a instance of the class yourself, and the computer doesn't mind, so let it go. ### Usage ### Have a look in the examples directory, but here's a snippet. * Install it (see below) * `require 'rack/jquery_ui/themes'`. * Put this in your middleware stack: `use Rack::JQueryUI::Themes, :theme => "vader"` * Put this in the head of your layout (the example is Haml but you can use whatever you like) <pre><code> %head = Rack::JQueryUI::Themes.cdn env, :organisation => :microsoft </code></pre> Now you have the script tags to Microsoft's CDN in the head (you can also use Media Temple or Microsoft, see the docs). It also adds in a bit of javascript that will load in a locally kept version of jQuery, just incase the CDN is unreachable. The script will use the "/js/jquery-ui/1.10.3/themes/:THEME/jquery-ui.min.css" path (or, instead of 1.10.3, whatever is in {Rack::JQueryUI::JQUERY_UI_VERSION}), where `:THEME` is the name of the theme you specified, the default being `smoothness`. That was easy. ### Note ### You have to have loaded jQuery _before_ using the CDN helper, as Rack::jQueryUI::Themes relies on it. I've already mentioned [Rack::JQuery](https://github.com/yb66/rack-jquery) which you can use to do this, or load the script however you like. Just remember that it needs to be there. ### Version numbers ### This library uses [semver](http://semver.org/) to version the **library**. That means the library version is ***not*** an indicator of quality but a way to manage changes. The version of jQuery-UI can be found in the lib/rack/jquery_ui/themes/version.rb file, or via the {Rack::JQueryUI::JQUERY_UI_VERSION} constant. ### Installation ### Add this line to your application's Gemfile: gem 'rack-jquery_ui-themes' And then execute: $ bundle Or install it yourself as: $ gem install rack-jquery_ui-themes ### Contributing ### 1.
