1
+ = Very light-weight implementation for navigation links
2
+
3
+ = Simple navigation (HOWTO)
4
+
5
+ === First add navigation areas to the layout
6
+
7
+ ==== app/views/layouts/application.html.erb
8
+ <html>
9
+ <head>
10
+ </head>
11
+ <body>
12
+ <ul id="nav">
13
+ <li><%= nav_link_to :home, root_path %></li>
14
+ <li><%= nav_link_to :foo, foo_ath %></li>
15
+ </ul>
16
+
17
+ <div id="content">
18
+ <%= yield %>
19
+ </div>
20
+ </body>
21
+ </html>
22
+
23
+ === Next, label different views to belong to different nav areas.
24
+
25
+ Let's have the home page be part of 'home' area and showing a Foo resource part of 'foo' area.
26
+
27
+ ==== app/views/pages/home.html.erb
28
+ <%- self.nav_area = :home -%>
29
+
30
+ ==== app/views/foos/show.html.erb
31
+
32
+ <%- self.nav_area = :foo -%>
33
+
34
+ === Done!
35
+
36
+ = Localization
37
+
38
+ +navlinks+ supports common localization but also allows some tricks. Suppose the localization file is as follows:
39
+
40
+ ==== config/locate/en.yml
41
+ en:
42
+ navigation:
43
+ home: Go home
44
+ home_current: At home
45
+
46
+ This causes the 'home' area description to be usually 'Go home'. However if the user is looking at a page that belongs to 'home', it will display 'At home'. Cool, huh?
47
+
48
+ = Decoration Override
49
+
50
+ By default the plugin decorates the 'current' area with brackets. It is possible to override this behavior by overriding +decorate_current_label+ method:
51
+
52
+ ==== app/helpers/application_helper.rb
53
+
54
+ module ApplicationHelper
55
+
56
+ # causes the current navigation label to be described as:
57
+ # * home *
58
+ def decorate_current_label( current_label )
59
+ "* #{current_label} *"
60
+ end
61
+ end
62
+
63
+ Now instead of [ home ] you will see * home *
64
