How use it? about simple_form-bootstrap

[erlend]

AFAIK this project is the source code for http://simple-form-bootstrap.plataformatec.com.br, which only highlights how to use Bootstrap with the "simple_form" gem.

Hi.
I thought that this project was a gem so I tried to add it in my gemfile:
gem 'simple_form-bootstrap', github: 'rafaelfranca/simple_form-bootstrap'
But it doesn't works, probably because this is actually a project and not a gem.
I know that this is not released yet, but I would like to give a try to the dev version.
I would appreciate to kown how use it, because I have no idea how to use it, yet.
Thanks.

Yeah, this project is an example application and not a gem that you can add to your project. The only dependency you need is the simple_form gem and the bootstrap wrappers generated on the simple_form.rb initializer. Please check the README section about Bootstrap on the Simple Form repo. https://github.com/plataformatec/simple_form#bootstrap

Thanks for the quick answer.
The documentation is about bootstrap 2.3.2, what about bootstrap 3 ?

If I understand correctly, I just need the initializer.rb from this repo to get a simple form customized to use bootstrap 3 ? Is it usable with simple_form (2.1.1)?

[rafaelfranca]

To work with bootstrap 3 only simple_form 3.1, aka master. The initializer is also generated by simple_form so this project is only an example application

Okay, thanks. That's what I thougt, I'm stuck with simple_form 2.1 for a while so I can't update it, I guess I won't be able to use the bootstrap 3 so.
Thanks.

If your instructions only work with the master branch of simple_form then can you please make that clear in the README. I've spent several frustrating trying it to figure out why this wasn't working.
