Renuo CMS Rails

Gem for Rails 4.1+ applications that use the excellent Renuo CMS.

• Renuo CMS Documentation
• Renuo CMS Client
• Renuo CMS API

So far it includes:

• A cms helper method that creates an editable CMS block.

• Only Rails 4.1+ is fully supported

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'renuo-cms-rails'

And then execute:

bundle

To use the JS client you need to include the following JS file in your project (please use the latest version, which can be found here: https://www.jsdelivr.com/projects/renuo-cms-client):

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/renuo-cms-client/XXX/renuo-cms-client.min.js" integrity="sha256-XXX" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

Use a fixed version of the library so you are not affected by changes without testing them, and to have a consistent behavior for all users.

To use the built in cms helper, add <%= cms(path) %> block to where you wish to use it. Here are some examples:

This uses the title "Default Title" as default text:

h1 = cms('view.article.index.title', 'Default Title')

This uses the whole block below as default text:

= cms('view.article.index.intro-text')
  h1
    | A title
  p
    | Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, ad facete comprehensam duo. Sit ei option nominati temporibus. Sea meis ancillae at,
      qui everti intellegebat ei, ad vim diam brute aperiam. Modo commune accumsan ad per. Soleat verterem tacimates quo
      ad, nostrum ullamcorper pri te, paulo eruditi placerat no vix.
  p
    | Dolores torquatos has in. Quod nullam interesset cum cu, vel ut dico fabulas, vis no ponderum delicata. Doctus
      deserunt salutandi has ad, cum in illum splendide. Pri quas tantas cetero id, semper senserit sed id.

If you've already translated your app using I18n, the next block will help you. It uses I18n.t('view.article.index.title') as default text:

h1 = cms('view.article.index.title')

Of course, you can also use it like this, where the whole block is the default text:

= cms('view.article.index.intro-text')
  h1 = t('.title')
  p = t('.paragraph-1')
  p = t('.paragraph-2')

The configuration is optional. If you want to use it, add an initializer file to your Rails app: config/initializers/renuo_cms_rails.rb containing the following block:

RenuoCmsRails.configure do |config|
  # Default: ENV['RENUO_CMS_API_HOST']
  config.api_host = 'custom.host'
  # Default: ENV['RENUO_CMS_API_KEY']
  config.api_key = 'custom-api-key'
  # Default: ENV['RENUO_CMS_PRIVATE_API_KEY']
  config.private_api_key = 'custom-private-api-key'
  # Default: ->(path) { "#{path}-#{I18n.locale}" }
  config.content_path_generator = ->(path) { "#{I18n.locale}--#{path}" }
end

To implement the authorization, implement a method cms_admin? in your application helper. Example (with devise):

module ApplicationHelper
  def cms_admin?
    user_signed_in?
  end
end

Another example:

module ApplicationHelper
  def cms_admin?
    user_signed_in? && current_user.admin?
  end
end

Of course, you can also add an application controller method, and make it a helper_method. See http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/AbstractController/Helpers/ClassMethods.html#method-i-helper_method for details.

The CMS appends -#{I18n.locale} to the content path to localize the CMS content. Additionally, dots will be converted to dashes.

Example: If you use the path article.index.title and the I18n.locale en, the CMS content path will be

article-index-title-en
