将Rails 3.1与DataTables一起使用

Question

在Rails 3.1中，与DataTables集成的推荐gem是什么？

Answer 1

I'm using the jquery-datatables-rails gem with bootstrap (twitter-bootstrap-rails gem) and it is perfect. The railscast episode on it is great -- but don't put the gem in your assets group or it will not work when deploying to heroku (since the assets group is not used in production).

Put this line in your gemfile:

gem 'jquery-datatables-rails', github: 'rweng/jquery-datatables-rails'

and run:

bundle install

Also, make sure to put this line in your application.rb:

config.assets.initialize_on_precompile = false

Add this to your application.js

//= require dataTables/jquery.dataTables

And this one if you are using bootstrap:

//= require dataTables/jquery.dataTables.bootstrap

Add this to your application.css:

*= require dataTables/jquery.dataTables

Or this one if you are using bootstrap:

*= require dataTables/jquery.dataTables.bootstrap

And if you are using bootstrap add this to your js.coffee file for your controller you are using datatables in:

If you are using fluid containers:

#// For fluid containers
$('#dashboard').dataTable({
  "sDom": "<'row-fluid'<'span6'l><'span6'f>r>t<'row-fluid'<'span6'i><'span6'p>>",
  "sPaginationType": "bootstrap"
});

If you are using fixed width containers:

#// For fixed width containers
$('.datatable').dataTable({
  "sDom": "<'row'<'span6'l><'span6'f>r>t<'row'<'span6'i><'span6'p>>",
  "sPaginationType": "bootstrap"
});

Answer 2

在Ryan Bates关于该主题的RailsCast（ http://railscasts.com/episodes/340-datatables ）中，他使用了jquery-datatables-rails（ https://github.com/rweng/jquery-datatables-rails ）

Answer 3

我自己没有使用它，但这是可用的： https ： //github.com/gryphon/simple_datatables 。

Answer 4

The following gem link may be relevant: https://github.com/artellectual/rails-datatables

This gem is a fork of the simple_datatables gem (mentioned by Allan) but it also supports pagination with kaminari and searching table data with ajax using the meta search gem.
