ember-rails allows you to include Ember.JS into your Rails 3.1 application.

The gem will also pre-compile your handlebars templates when building your asset pipeline. It includes development and production copies of Ember.

You can see an example of how to use the gem here

Add the gem to your application Gemfile:

gem "ember-rails"

Run bundle install and add the following line to app/assets/javascripts/application.js:

//= require ember

If you want to include the new date-time helpers provided by ember, you can use:

//= require ember-datetime

Ember-rails also provides a way to run Ember in development mode, you can switch out your require statements to use the dev copies like so:

//= require ember-dev
//= require ember-datetime-dev

Ask Rails to serve HandlebarsJS and pre-compile templates to Ember by putting each template in a dedicated ".js.hjs" file (e.g. app/assets/javascripts/templates/admin_panel.js.hjs) and including the assets in your layout:

<%= javascript_include_tag "templates/admin_panel" %>

Bundle all templates together thanks to Sprockets, e.g create app/assets/javascripts/templates/all.js with:

//= require_tree .

Now a single line in the layout loads everything:

<%= javascript_include_tag "templates/all" %>

1. Fork the project.
2. Make your feature addition or bug fix.
3. Add tests for it. This is important so I don't break it in a future version unintentionally.
4. Commit, do not mess with rakefile, version, or history. (if you want to have your own version, that is fine but bump version in a commit by itself I can ignore when I pull)
5. Send me a pull request. Bonus points for topic branches.
