SocialShare

Easy helper methods for adding custom social share buttons (Facebook, Twitter, and Google+) to your Rails app.

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'social_share'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install social_share

in application.js

//= require 'social_share'

in application.css

*= require social_share

The current social service options are [:facebook, :twitter, :google_plus, :pinterest, :reddit, :tumblr, :stumbleupon]

The social_share method takes a title, a url, and an optional services argument (defaults to Facebook and Twitter) as well as an optional more_services option (defaults to everything except Facebook and Twitter).

<%= social_share(@video.title, video_path(@video), services: [:facebook, :twitter, :google_plus]) %>

Gotchas

The Pinterest button will only be generated if you include the optional image argument:

<%= social_share(@video.title, video_path(@video), image: 'https://placekitten.com/g/500/300') %>
