Getting Started

This is a News/Blog plugin for Spina CMS based on articles.

gem 'spina-articles'

Run the migration installer to get started.

rails g spina_articles:install

This should copy the migration file required to create the Spina::Article model.

Restart your server and head over to '/admin', you should see your plugin located below the Media Library.

That's all it takes to get the plugin working :)

Consumer views

Note: This plugin does not include the controller or view for the customer facing website, just the admin only.

To get you going you'll need to add the routes:

Spina::Engine.routes.draw do
    resources :articles, only: [:show, :index]
end

Then create the the controller articles_controller.rb inside controllers > spina > articles and include your index and show actions:

def index
  @articles = Spina::Article.order(created_at: :desc).all
end

def show
  @article ||= Article.find_by(slug: params[:id])
end
