Plugins - Scaffolding Extensions

StarAdd to favorites

Improves on Rails' default scaffolding in the following ways:

  • Choose which fields are displayed in the scaffold and in which order
  • Choose which methods are added by the scaffold function
  • Handle belongs_to associations with select boxes or auto completing text boxes in the new/edit forms
  • Add HABTM association scaffolding using a select box for removing existing associations and a select box or an auto completing text box for adding a new association.
  • Add links to associated objects on the edit page for the model, allowing fast access to manage associated models, edit the HABTM asociations, or add objects for has_many associations.
  • Add simple search scaffolding (using all fields from new/edit form)
  • Add scaffolding for merging records (combining two records into one by updating all associated tables)
  • Show associated data instead of foreign key integer in show/search results scaffold
  • Many customization options for all parts of scaffolding

Note that this plugin is not a scaffold generator. It works like ActiveScaffold where it does not generator code, but rather you configure your models to use it.
