0.11.1.0 is broken about react-rails

[xionon]

Here's an example repo, that just tries to include react.js in the application.js file, as specified in the instructions:

https://github.com/xionon/react-test

Is there a reason that the gem published to rubygems.org isn't tracking the master branch?

Because master has new features. The plan months ago was to get off of the "track React versions" path when server rendering and whatever helpers felt good, then call it 1.0. This hasn't gotten enough love to get there. I would love for it to (I'm looking for maintainers, let me know if you want to get more involved!)

#46 is closed and should not be reopened. < 1.0 doesn't include react_ujs so it won't be found.

As to why react could not be found, 0.x does not provide any defaults for the variant of react. You must specify config.react.variant. If I do that in your example app, it works. Looking at the readme in the 0.11 branch, that doesn't seem as clear as I remember it. Master defaults to using the version matching your environment (which is a nice detail) - https://github.com/reactjs/react-rails/blob/master/lib/react/rails/railtie.rb#L9

Ahhhh, duh. I've been working off master so long, I forgot I had to specify
the variant. Sorry!
