# webpack-rails-react-router of fleet-manager

This example app was built using [webpack-rails-react](github.com/cottonwoodcoding/webpack-rails-react) with the –router flag passed on generation. This is a simple Todo List App to demonstrate extracting your client to a [React](facebook.github.io/react/) application using react-router.

### Running Sample App

1. git clone

2. npm install && bundle install

3. bundle exec rake db:create db:migrate

4. foreman start

1. Create a new rails app

“‘ rails new todo_app –skip-turbolinks “`

1. add webpack-rails-react to your Gemfile

“‘ gem ’webpack-rails-react’ “‘

1. create and migrate the database

2. generate the app with react-router

“‘ bundle exec rails g webpack_rails_react:install –router “`

1. enter y to npm install

2. enter y to bundle install

3. generate a controller

“‘ rails g controller home index –no-helper –no-assets “`

1. change your routes file to root to your new controller and hand off all routes to react-router

“‘ root ’home#index’ get ‘*unmatched_route’, to: ‘home#index’ “‘ **unmatched _route must be the last line of the routes file*

1. Create a NoMatch component and add to your client side routes.

“‘ <Route path=“*” status={404} component={NoMatch}/> “`
