RegexField

Regex field for Rails FormHelper. The colorization of the regex is performed by https://github.com/slevithan/regex-colorizer.

Usage

Simply call regex_field on your form helper to generate a text field with regex highlighting. Here's an example:

<%= form_for(@record) do |f| %>
  <%= f.regex_field :attr %>
<% end %>

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'regex_field'

And then import the javascript in app/assets/stylesheets/application.scss:

//= require regex_field

If you work with the bootstrap_form gem, you can refer to this open issue to enable Bootstrap layout on the regex field.
