Turbogrid

The fastest way to add sortable tables to a Rails app.

Features

• Only a small amount of code required
• Automatically handles sorting
• Customizable columns
• Optional filters

Example

Let's say you have a model called Item. You can then make a grid for it by placing the following code in your controller:

@grid = grid_for Item do
  # Create a column for name
  column :name

  # Create a column for category using a custom title
  column :category, "The category"

  # Create a column for price and filter each value through a block
  column :price do |value|
    "EUR #{value}"
  end

  # Add a filter for the category
  select_filter :category, "Filter by category", {
    "Tasty coffee" => "coffee",
    "Exciting movies" => "movies"
  }
end

Now you can display the grid by placing this line in your view:

<%= render_grid @grid %>
