(This is related to #1262, which is not a bug, so, it should be a wiki entry. However, I can't attach files because Akismet thinks I'm a spammer. Someone please attach here the file that's attached to #1262). === What is it? === * Attached is an adaptation of the port of RoR's JavascriptHelpers (http://pylonshq.com/project/pylons/browser/RailsHelpers) by Ben Bangert to Django tag library. * It also includes port of Eugene's LiveFilter?(dojo) to prototype (DelayedObserver in observer.js). === Usage === {{{ {% rails function_name (arg1,arg2,kwarg1=3,...) %} or {% rails function_name %} arg1,arg2, arg3, kwarg1=value1, kwarg2=value2, ... {% endrails %} }}} === Usage Examples === {{{ {% load railshelper %} {% rails link_to_function ("Greeing", "alert('Hello World')") %} {% rails link_to_remote %} "Delete this post", {'update':"posts",'url':"./destroy"} {% endrails %} {% rails observe_form %} "searchform", url='?format=ahah', update='results', delay=0.3, method='get', complete="SEL.setup('product_list');", {% endrails %} }}} === Issues === * Used exec to do the parameter parsing. So people may not like it, but this was the quickest way I could think of. External parameter is exec-ed only within a function argument: {{{ def argparser(*args, **kws): return args, kws exec("args, kws=argparser("+param+")") }}} I could not think of any malicious thing to do in function argument but probably there are many. Please let me know. * Easily modifiable to render passed parameter as django template. * Tested only "link_to_remote", "observe_form" in real web browser (IE, FF, Opera).
