You can drop this into any application to: + +- force confirmation dialogs for various actions; +- make non-GET requests from hyperlinks; +- make forms or hyperlinks submit data asynchronously with Ajax; +- have submit buttons become automatically disabled on form submit to prevent double-clicking. + +These features are achieved by adding certain ["data" attributes][data] to your HTML markup. In Rails, they are added by the framework's template helpers. + +Requirements +------------ + +- HTML5 doctype (optional). + +If you don't use HTML5, adding "data" attributes to your HTML4 or XHTML pages might make them fail [W3C markup validation][validator]. However, this shouldn't create any issues for web browsers or other user agents. + +Installation using npm +------------ + +Run `npm install rails-ujs --save` to install the rails-ujs package. + +Installation using Yarn +------------ + +Run `yarn add rails-ujs` to install the rails-ujs package. + +Usage +------------ + +Require `rails-ujs` into your application.js manifest. + +```javascript +//= require rails-ujs +``` + +How to run tests +------------ + +Run `bundle exec rake ujs:server` first, and then run the web tests by visiting [[http://localhost:4567]] in your browser. + +## License +rails-ujs is released under the [MIT License](MIT-LICENSE). + +[data]: http://www.w3.org/TR/html5/dom.html#embedding-custom-non-visible-data-with-the-data-*-attributes "Embedding custom non-visible data with the data-* attributes" +[validator]: http://validator.w3.org/ +[csrf]: http://api.rubyonrails.org/classes/ActionController/RequestForgeryProtection.html |
