Changing Default Layout Generated By Scaffold

rubyonrails-talk
1

Good afternoon everyone.

Using the command: script/generate scaffold User name:string login:string password:string It created a layout in html standard for CRUD in app/views/users.

I wonder if you can change this layout (html) standard that is generated by scaffold, for example by placing the default layout of my system, so I do not need to change the layout of each CRUD individually.

Is it possible? If possible please suggest me a tutorial or me describe step-by-step how to proceed to effect that change.

Thank you.

If I understand your question, you can just delete the new layouts and the controller should default to the application layout.

Good night.

Friend you have not understood the question ... I want to change the layout before running the scaffold.

For example: I want to change the default layout of the scaffold. And when I run the scaffold is created the html (which I already changed) in app / views / users.

Got it??

I see, so you want to design how the page will look before running the scaffold? If so, no there is no way to do this. Scaffolding autogenerates the html - so unless you modified some core rails class the output is always the same. I wanted to do the same thing when I started. Once you get used to erb you won't really need to scaffold.

I would recommend to take a look at this :

you can create your custom generator exactly the way you like so you can use your own scaffold layout.

Also, in Ruby in Rails 3 :

At last but not least, have a look at this gem: http://patshaughnessy.net/view_mapper
