RailsTidy Description

RailsTidy is a plugin for Ruby On Rails. RailsTidy project is a plugin for Ruby On Rails.Here are some key features of "RailsTidy":· validate your rhtml templates,· validate the html output of your functional tests,· clean the html generated by rails.Requirements:· Tidy, the popular HTML validator and· RubyTidy, Ruby bindings for Tidy.Installation:Unpack into the vendor/plugin and that should be it. Ruby bindings for libtidy need to know the path to the file libtidy.so. It is assumed to be found at /usr/lib/libtidy.so . If this is not the case, add RailsTidy.tidy_path = "/path/to/your/libtidy.so"to your environment file. Configuration:If the file config/tidy.rc exists, it will use it to configure Tidy. If you want to use another file, put RailsTidy.tidy_configuration = "/path/to/a/tidy/configuration/file" to your environment file.Usage:Validating templatesSimply use $ rake test_templatesBy default, the plugin will parse all *.rhtml files in your app/views directory. If you want to validate only one file, use $ rake test_templates FILE="path/to/the/file"If $FILE is a directory, it will search for all *.rhtml file in it and try to validates them. If $FILE is a regular file it will be validated. If $FILE does not exists it will try with: ".rhtml" appended to $FILE, the app/view directory prepended to $FILE, the app/view directory prepended and ".rhtml" appended to $FILE Validating html outputThe plugin adds a new assert_tidy method to the Test::Unit::TestCase class. You can use it in your class by simply call it with no arguments. It will validate the last response returned by a test. For example: get :index assert_sucess assert_tidyCleaning rails html outputThe plugin allows you to clean the html produced by rails. To enable it, use an after filter in your app/controller/application.rb file class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base after_filter :tidy def tidy RailsTidy.filter(response) end endWARNING: THIS IS CERTAINLY A RESOURCE HOG. I’m not interrested in this feature so I didn’t benchmarked it but at first sight rendering is at least 2 times slower with the filter enabled.
