New Release of UJS Date-Picker Rails Plugin

Mar 08, 2008 in Ruby, Web Development

I’ve now updated my date-picker Rails plugin based on Brian McAllister’s Unobtrusive Date-Picker Widget. It now includes helper methods for making selects that wrap a ActiveRecord model object, or just a date/time value. It also includes many more options, mostly offering pragmatic ways of adding the options available to controlling the date-picker widget through html classes.

I’ve also created a large number of specs (with RSpec) for testing the plugin. Amazingly, testing plugins is actually really hard task, which I’ll probablly cover in a future post.

I’ve created a wiki page for Documentation and updated the RDoc’s.

If your using the plugin, and have any questions or concerns, or bug reports feel free to contact me.
