@import "active_admin_pagedown/base"

The Javascript

Add the following to active_admin.js.coffee to load the Pagedown javascript:

//= require active_admin_pagedown/base

If you want to use the simple default intializer for Pagedown, add the following as well:

//= require active_admin_pagedown/default

Usage

  f.inputs do
    f.input :body, :as => :pagedown_text
    f.actions
  end
end

Then you should see in your ActiveAdmin form:
