Event System¶ ↑

Description¶ ↑

Event System is a Rails plugin for dynamic site updates triggered by custom model changes.

Install¶ ↑

script/plugin install github.com/enricogenauck/event_system.git

Prerequisites¶ ↑

• JQuery

Simple usage¶ ↑

In your model:

class Message < ActiveRecord:Base
  creates_event

  [...]
end

In your controller:

class MessagesController < ApplicationController
  handles :message, :index

  def index
    @messages = Message.all
  end
end

In your view:

<%= integrate_event_system %>

<div class="event_system_container">
  <%= render @messages %>
</div>

Given you have the typical partial like _message.html.erb defined, from now on the newly created messages will be inserted in your view by periodically fired ajax requests.
