Trimmer Controller

=================

Rack endpoint to make templates and i18n translations available in javascript.

See specs for more details.

How it works

------------

Trimmer adds additional routes to your app:

- /trimmer/en.js

- /trimmer/es.js

- etc

This defines two variables in your app: I18n.translations and Templates.

Translations

------------

Trimmer will serve the translations you define from your config/locales files available as a JS object.

Templates

---------

This is the cool part. You can define your own structure of client-side templates which will be:

1. Rendered by Rails (where you can access ERB, helpers and Rails i18n)

2. Available in JS as templates

To add templates, create a folder structure like this:

    app/

      templates/

        users/

          index.jade.erb

          show.jade.erb

        settings.jade.erb

This will create a JS object with this structure:

    Templates = {

      users: {

        index: "...",

        show: "..."

      },

      settings: "..."

    }
