I use Rails 7, Ruby 2.7, the administrate gem for my admin dashboard and tailwindcss for the frontend.
I am trying to pass custom HTML classes into the fields. I have already generated the partials for all field types using the command rails generate administrate:views:field all
.
For example, in app\views\fields\string\_form
, how could I add to the input field a tailwind class? Below is a part of the generated file.
<div class="field-unit__field">
<%= f.text_field field.attribute %>
</div>
The doc stipulates that there is an instance method called html_class
inherited from Base
but I struggle to apply it to the view.
Something like this would be perfect:
field.attribute.html_class("class1 class2 class3")
field.attribute.with_options(html_class: "class1 class2 class3")
Woah ok, this was much easier than what I thought. I had to add the classes this way:
<div class="field-unit__field">
<%= f.text_field field.attribute, class: "class1 class2 class3" %>
</div>
