Administrate::Field::Select

Adds basic select/dropdown fields to ThoughtBot's Administrate

NOTE: Since v0.1.15, Administrate now supports its own Field::Select with a slightly different mechanic. So this has been renamed to Field::SelectBasic. Please update your Gemfiles (as below) and rename your calls to this field.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'administrate-field-select', '~> 2.0', require: 'administrate/field/select_basic'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Usage

In your dashboard's ATRRIBUTE_TYPES, use the type Field::SelectBasic with options:

ATTRIBUTE_TYPES = {
  my_field: Field::SelectBasic.with_options({
    choices: ['option_one', 'option_two', 'option_three']
  }),
  some_other_field: Field::String,
}

The options specified in choices will be passed as the choice to a Rails select tag.

Additional options that are available:

• include_blank: If true or a string, includes a blank option in the dropdown (with the string as its text).
• prettify: If true, passes all choices through titleize before displaying them (in all views). If a lambda, that lambda is used instead of titleize.
• i18n: If true, passes all choices through i18n before displaying them (in all views).

If both prettify and i18n are specified then prettify takes precedence.

Todo

Some ideas for possible enhancements:

• Be more magic with enum types and reflect the choices
