A simple file manager created in RoR as a mountable engine.

Saphira

Saphira is a file manager written for RoR using dragonfly. It's created for the great Railsyard CMS, but it's using the mountable engines introduced in rails 3.1, so it would be useable without RY as well.

Currently this project is under development and not finished at all but in order to have it under version control, it's already available on github.

Installation

Add the gem to your gemfile: gem 'saphira', '~> 0.1.0.beta2' and add mount Saphira::Engine => "/saphira", :as => 'saphira' to your routes.rb file to mount the engine. The file manager should be available at http://localhost:3000/saphira then.
