Markitup_rails is a Rails 3.1 engine that allows you to integrate the MarkItUp text editor into the asset pipeline.
This uses the 1.1.14 release of Markitup, by Jay Salvat
This engine allows you to add in the CSS and Javascript as written in the MarkItUp plugin. I would strongly recommend that you read the documentation tha comes with MarkItUp.
This engine includes the following MarkItUp elements:
-
MarkItUp images and stylesheets
-
MarkItUp javascript
-
a MarkItUp set for Markdown
MarkItUp support a variety of markup parsers, however, this plugin only includes support for Markdown and HTML. Pull requests are welcome!
Add the markitup_rails gem to your Gemfile. In Gemfile:
gem "markitup_rails"
/* app/assets/stylesheets/application.css */
/* the following directives will include the markitup CSS */
/* the skins/markitup CSS will define how the text area will look */
/* the sets/markdown CSS defines the markdown-specific buttons */
/*
*= require skins/markitup/style.css
*= require sets/markdown/style.css
*/
// in app/assets/javascripts/application.js
// include the main MarkItUp javascript
//= require jquery.markitup
// include a set, which defines the javascript rules for the particular parser. Markdown is included with this:
// The sets/markdown/set.js file will define a Javascript variable called "myMarkdownSettings".
//= require ./sets/markdown/set.js
$(document).ready(function(){
$("textarea").markItUp(myMarkdownSettings);
});
/* app/assets/stylesheets/application.css */
/* the following directives will include the markitup CSS */
/* the skins/markitup CSS will define how the text area will look */
/* the sets/bbcode CSS defines the bbcode-specific buttons */
/*
*= require skins/markitup/style.css
*= require sets/bbcode/style.css
*/
// in app/assets/javascripts/application.js
// include the main MarkItUp javascript
//= require jquery.markitup
// include a set, which defines the javascript rules for the particular parser. BBCode is included with this:
// The sets/bbcode/set.js file will define a Javascript variable called "myBBCodeSettings".
//= require ./sets/bbcode/set.js
$(document).ready(function(){
$("textarea").markItUp(myBBCodeSettings);
});
/* app/assets/stylesheets/application.css */
/* the following directives will include the markitup CSS */
/* the skins/markitup CSS will define how the text area will look */
/* the sets/markdown CSS defines the markdown-specific buttons */
/*
*= require skins/markitup/style.css
*= require sets/default/style.css
*/
// in app/assets/javascripts/application.js
// include the main MarkItUp javascript
//= require jquery.markitup
// include a set, which defines the javascript rules for the particular parser.
// The sets/default/set.js file will define a Javascript variable called "mySettings".
//= require ./sets/default/set.js
$(document).ready(function(){
$("textarea").markItUp(mySettings);
});
The engine also comes with a simple controller that MarkItUp can send text to your application, and return a response parsed with BlueCloth, and render a preview using Ajax.

Commit and push until you are happy with your contribution
-
Make sure to add tests for it. This is important so I don’t break it in a future version unintentionally.
-
Please try not to mess with the Rakefile, version, or history. If you want to have your own version, or is otherwise necessary, that is fine, but please isolate to its own commit so I can cherry-pick around it.
