X-editable for Rails

X-editable is an in-place editing plugin with support for Twitter Bootstrap, jQuery UI or pure jQuery.

The bootstrap-x-editable-rails gem integrates X-editable with Rails asset pipeline. This gem only supports the Bootstrap part of X-editable.

Updating the gem

There are two rake tasks designed to ease the maintenance of this gem.

The update task pulls the latest X-editable code from github and places images, stylesheets and javascripts in the correct gem paths. It also changes background-image properties in the stylesheet to asset pipeline equivalents.

rake update

The build task is a simple wrapper for gem build

rake build
