This is a theme for Hobo (http://www.hobocentral.net) that implements the Bootstrap library (http://twitter.github.com/bootstrap/).

This gem wraps common Hobo tags (such as , , and many others), to be rendered using Bootstrap styling and adds new tags such as to provide icons for Edit and Delete links in tables.

This gem pulls in the bootstrap-sass gem which provides all of the Bootstrap stylesheets, images, fonts etc.

hobo_bootstrap

Install instructions

---

Add this to your Gemfile

gem "hobo_bootstrap"

Run bundle to get the gems

bundle

Add to your front.scss:

 *= require hobo_bootstrap

Add to your front.js:

//= require hobo_bootstrap

Alternatively, you could require bootstrap-collapse and bootstrap-alert, since those are the only two javascript components that this theme currently requires. However, we do plan on supporting more in the future.

Change the theme in app/views/taglibs/front_site.dryml:

<include gem='hobo_bootstrap'/>

You will also want to remove any references to your previous theme in the above files. hobo_clean is the name of the old default Hobo theme.

Two main menu options

---

By default, hobo_bootstrap puts every option in the top menu, like this:

But you can also use a sub menu, like the one in the bootstrap documentation:

In order to enable the sub menu, add these lines to your front_site.dryml:

<extend tag="page">
  <old-page merge nav-location="sub">
</extend>

Responsive template

---

This theme includes the bootstrap responsive CSS, which makes it work nicely with mobile phones. For example:

If you don't want to include the responsive CSS, use

*= require bootstrap
*= require hobo_bootstrap/hobo_bootstrap_main

instead of

*= require hobo_bootstrap

in your front.scss.

Bootswatch themes

If you want to style your theme differently, the easiest way is to choose a theme from bootswatch.

In front.scss, remove:

*= require hobo_bootstrap

and add this to the bottom of the file, outside of the comment:

@import "bootswatch/cerulean/variables";
@import "hobo_bootstrap";
@import "bootswatch/cerulean/bootswatch";

Replace cerulean with the theme of your choice.

Add to Gemfile

gem 'bootswatch-rails'

And run bundle.

Any other theme you find or buy will probably be delivered as CSS or LESS rather than SCSS. Copy the CSS into a new folder in app/assets/stylesheets, and use like this, replacing foo with the name of your theme:

@import "foo/bootstrap.css";
@import "hobo_bootstrap/hobo_bootstrap_main";
@import "foo/bootstrap_responsive.css";
@import "hobo_bootstrap/hobo_bootstrap_responsive";
@import "hobo_bootstrap/hobo_bootstrap_docs";

Complex forms

---

By default, forms only have one column. But many you need more complex forms. Take a look at these examples:

Two columns example

<new-page>
  <form:>
    <field-list: columns="2"/>
  </form:>
</new-page>

{.dryml}

Three columns, aside and double sized fields

<new-page content-size="9">
  <aside:>
    Hola! Soy el aside :)
  </aside:>
  <form:>
    <field-list: replace>
      <field-list size="9" columns="3" fields="name, end_date, codigo_postal"/>
      <div class="row columns">
        <div class="span6">
          <single-field-list fields="description"/>
        </div>
        <div class="span3">
          <single-field-list fields="responsable"/>
        </div>
      </div>
      <div class="row columns">
        <div class="span6">
          <single-field-list fields="description"/>
        </div>
        <div class="span3">
          <single-field-list fields="responsable"/>
        </div>
      </div>
      <div class="row columns">
        <div class="span9">
          <single-field-list fields="description"/>
        </div>
      </div>
      <div class="row columns">
        <div class="span3">
          <single-field-list fields="description"/>
        </div>
        <div class="span6">
          <single-field-list fields="responsable"/>
        </div>
      </div>
      <div class="row columns">
        <div class="span3">
          <single-field-list fields="description"/>
        </div>
        <div class="span3">
          <single-field-list fields="responsable"/>
        </div>
        <div class="span3">
          <single-field-list fields="responsable"/>
        </div>
      </div>
    </field-list:>
  </form:>
</new-page>

{.dryml}

Demo app

---

I have been using a demo application to test this theme (the screenshots come from it). It has:

• Examples of complex forms (1/2/3 columns, aside, double sized fields...)
• Rspec "human driven" tests for the responsive CSS (they automatically resize your window and wait for you to clic on "OK" if it looks fine)
• Examples of Jquery File Upload (http://blueimp.github.com/jQuery-File-Upload/).

You can download and take a look at it on https://github.com/suyccom/sgagility

Notes

---

Right now, you still need to keep "hobo_clean" in your Gemfile if you want to use the Ajax search enabled by default in Hobo.
