Calendar helper for Twitter Bootstrap and Rails

This gem provide simple and easy way to create calendar with Twitter Bootstrap and Rails.

Installation

First of all you should include twitter bootstrap in your app. You can do it manually, or use twitter-bootstrap-rails gem.

Installing the Less stylesheets

To use Less stylesheets, you'll need the less-rails gem, and one of Javascript runtimes supported by CommonJS.

Include these lines in the Gemfile to install the gems from RubyGems.org:

gem "therubyracer"
gem "less-rails" #Sprockets (what Rails 3.1 uses for its asset pipeline) supports LESS
gem "bootstrap_calendar_rails"

Then run bundle install from the command line:

bundle install

Then run the bootstrap generator to add Calendar includes into your assets:

rails generate calendar:install less

Installing the CSS stylesheets

If you don't need to customize the stylesheets using Less, the only gem you need is the bootstrap_calendar_rails gem:

gem "bootstrap_calendar_rails"

After running bundle install, run the generator:

rails generate calendar:install static

Usage

Basic usage

You should use something like this in the view

bootstrap_calendar Date.today {} do |date|
    date.day.to_s
end

it show you calendar for the current month.

Advanced usage

You can specify another start week day. Use start_day key for this:

bootstrap_calendar Date.today { start_day: :wednesday } do |date|
    date.day.to_s
end

You can extend day classes. Use extra_day_classes key and lambda for this:

options = { extra_day_classes: lambda { |classes, date|
  classes << 'cal-day-daylight' if true  
  }
}
