Unconfirm

This gem helps in creating user-confirmable UI actions with a persistent "Don't show this message again." facility.

Installation

Add this line to your application's Gemfile:

gem 'unconfirm'

And then execute:

$ bundle

Or install it yourself as:

$ gem install unconfirm

Usage

1. DB Migration:

    $ rake unconfirm_engine:install:migrations
    $ rake db:migrate
   

2. Update layout: Edit your application.html.erb or equivalent layout file and add the following:

   Just before body tag is closed:

    <%= include_unconfirm %>
    <%= unconfirm_tag %>
   

3. Include unconfirm javascript assets. Add the following to your application assets (application.js):

    //= require unconfirm
   

4. Add configuration file(s) for unconfirm settings:

   Under <RAILS ROOT>/config/unconfirm add <category>_setting.yml file with any needed settings. See [example user settings file][example] for format and documentation. [example]: config/unconfirm/example_user_settings.yml

5. Enable unconfirm.

   Change something like the following:

    <%= f.submit "Submit", 
            :name => "save",
            :class => 'link_button',
            :confirm => "Are you sure?" %>
   

   to:

    <%= f.submit "Submit",
            :name => "save",
            :class => 'link_button unconfirm',
            :data => data_with_unconfirm('skip_save_message') %>
   

6. Test to make sure everything works as expected.
