There are around 5 tickets on Lighthouse (probably more) about changing Rails scaffold. I would like to summarize the requests here, so we can finally agree in a solution.
First of all, in Rails 3.0 generators will be customizable per application. You will be able to throw your templates in lib/templates and they will be picked on generation. This enforces the point of view that Rails default scaffold should be a starting point, not only for applications, but also for people who are starting with Rails. This is important to know because we have to ponder things like: 1) Should we put forms in a _form partial? On the same way this is the "best practice", we are adding more code for people to grasp at the beginning. Another proposed changes are: 2) Change forms to use <ol> and <li> instead of paragraphs; 3) Change show view to use definition list (<dl>), instead of paragraphs and bold (http://www.w3schools.com/TAGS/tag_dl.asp); 4) Wrap footer links (Show and Back) in paragraphs. 5) Remove inline CSS from: <p style="color: green"><%= flash[:notice %></p> And wrap it around a html class. What are your point of view for each item? --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Core" group.
