Just make quick steps to start using Aloha Editor in your Rails app!

1. Generate your Aloha Editor config:

   rails generate aloha:install

2. Load Aloha Editor from your layout:

   <%= javascript_include_tag 'aloha-config' %>
   <%= aloha_dependencies_cdn %>
   <%= aloha_require_cdn %>

3. Then write javascript to start edit a textarea:

   $('#some-textarea').aloha();

Enjoy!

You should make these things to start using Aloha Editor in your app:

1. Generate your Aloha Editor config: rails generate aloha:install. Use --coffee option to use CoffeeScript for js-config file.

2. Load Aloha Editor config file.

   • insert this in your layout: <%= javascript_include_tag 'aloha-config' %>
   • or require it in your asset: //= require 'aloha-config'

3. Load dependencies (only RequireJS library is required now).

   • to load them all using Aloha Editor CDN, just write this in your layout: <%= aloha_dependencies_cdn %>;
   • or you can load a single dependency only via CDN, i.e. <%= aloha_requirejs_cdn %>;
   • or load them manually in your own manner..., then see Aloha Editor's website to choose required dependencies' versions.

4. Load Aloha Editor:

   • to load it via CDN asynchronously using RequireJS, write in your layout: <%= aloha_require_cdn %>;
   • to load it via CDN but without RequireJS, write in your layout (you should not load RequireJS library above): <%= aloha_cdn %>;
   • to load it from local server using RequireJS, run rake aloha:update and write in your layout: <%= aloha_require_local %>;
   • to load it from local server but without RequireJS, run rake aloha:update and write in your layout (you should not load RequireJS library above): <%= aloha_local %>;

5. Then write javascript to start edit a textarea: $('#some-textarea').aloha();.

Enjoy too!

See code (and tests) for aditional information.
