# Fancy Rails Web Console

A userscript that enhances the [Rails Web Console](https://github.com/rails/web-console) so it can be minimized.

On page load the web console is minimized down to a small `>>` button on the bottom right of the screen. Clicking it brings the console back. Clicking the close `x` button on the console will minimize it again instead of removing it from the DOM.

## Requirements

 - [Greasemonkey](https://www.greasespot.net), [Tampermonkey](https://www.tampermonkey.net), or [Voilentmonkey](https://violentmonkey.github.io) — Loads the userscript on localhost:3000

 - The [Rails Web Console](https://github.com/rails/web-console) — This script was built specifically to enhance the web console

## Installation

Assuming you meet the requirements above, simply visit https://github.com/FiveElementNinja/Fancy-Rails-Web-Console/raw/main/fancy-rails-web-console.user.js and you'll get prompted by Greasemonkey/Tampermonkey/Voilentmonkey to install the script. Once it's installed, it should start working the next time you load localhost:3000.

## Notes

 - This hasn't been tested thoroughly across Rails projects. I built it to work with my current project. I have no idea if it'll work on yours.

 - Works with Turbo navigation as well.

- **This script is auto-updating. You should only install auto-updating scripts from sources you trust. If you are not comfortable with that, don't install this script. Alternatively, you can modify the script yourself to not be auto-updating.**
