# Ionic + Rails

This is code to accompany a screencast about making Rails and Ionic play nicely

together.

## Getting started

Create a folder to hold both sides of the app

```

mkdir ionic-rails

cd ionic-rails

```

## Rails

Perform these steps from within the `ionic-rails` folder you created.

Create the Rails project

```

rails new server

cd server

```

Add `rack-cors` to the `Gemfile`

```

gem 'rack-cors'

```

Run Bundler to refresh your gem store

```

bundle install

```

Enable CORS in `config/application.rb`

```

# put this inside the Application class

config.middleware.insert_before 0, "Rack::Cors" do

  allow do

    origins '*'

    resource '*', :headers => :any, :methods => [:get, :post, :options]

  end

end    

```

Create the User scaffold

```

rails g scaffold user firstname:string lastname:string shirtSize:string vegetarian:boolean

```

Allow CORS requests to come through in `app/controllers/user_controller.rb`

```

protect_from_forgery with: :null_session

```

(you can also do this in ApplicationController, but that is app-wide and is not a

great idea..)

Run the Rails migrations

```

rake db:migrate

```

Start the Rails server (in its own terminal)

```

rails s

```

## Ionic

Perform these steps from within the `ionic-rails` folder you created.

Bootstrap from Ionic Template

```

ionic start app https://github.com/bendyworks/ionic-rails-app

```

Start ionic server

```

cd app

ionic serve

```
