SimpleStrapFile

Simple Form component that provides a pretty file input using Twitter Bootstrap for styling.

Based on 'Whipping File Inputs Into Shape with Bootstrap 3' by Cory LaViska.

It is assumed you have installed Bootstrap and Simple Form already

Ensure you have applied Bootstrap styling to Simple Form using:

rails generate simple_form:install --bootstrap

Add gem 'simple_strap_file' to your application's Gemfile and run bundle.

Import styling in app/assets/stylesheets/application.css:

*= require simple_strap_file

Require Javascripts in app/assets/javascripts/application.js

//= require simple_strap_file

If you are using Paperclip and have an avatar column you can use the following in your form:

<%= f.input :avatar, input_html: { value: f.object.avatar_file_name, readonly: true } %>

This will also show the filename when the form is shown in the edit view.
