MarkitupErb::Rails

Vanilla markItUp! for Rails 3.x, works with ERB, so, no extra gems needed like SCSS (huh?) or LESS. It comes with these sets from markItUp!: Html, Textile, Wiki Syntax, Markdown, and BBcode, if you use one of them maybe you will need to add other gems to parse it ;-).

markItUp! version: 1.1.12

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem "markitup_erb-rails"

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install markitup_erb-rails

Usage

In app/assets/javascripts/application.js add this:

//= require markitup/jquery.markitup
//= require markitup/sets/default/set

Now, in app/assets/stylesheets/application.css add this:

*= require markitup/skins/simple/style
*= require markitup/sets/default/style

So, to enable markItUp! for all textarea tags (you can change this selector in order to select a specific textarea) add this snippet.

$(function () {
  mySettings.previewTemplatePath = "/markitup_erb/previews/preview"; // MarkitupErb::Rails default preview template.
  $("textarea").markItUp(mySettings);
});

This gem comes with this extra sets from markItUp!: html, textile, wiki, markdown, and bbcode. To use it just replace sets lines in app/assets/javascripts/application.js and app/assets/stylesheets/application.css.

app/assets/javascripts/application.js:

//= require markitup/jquery.markitup
//= require markitup/sets/markdown/set

app/assets/stylesheets/application.css:

*= require markitup/skins/simple/style
*= require markitup/sets/markdown/style

In order to use markItUp! follow the documentation from step 4 :-).
