it "should parameterize itself with id" do
registration = Factory.create(:tournament_registration, :team_name => "Mighty Badgers")

Spec for a tagging front-end Rails plugin or jQuery library

Need a Rails plugin that can also be used as just a jQuery library.

  • Written in CoffeeScript
  • Has Jasmine tests
  • Only requires jQuery — not jQuery UI
  • Based off of and styles itself after a single text form field
  • Can be downloaded with a minified JS version ready to go
  • Rails form helper for creating the field
  • SimpleForm detection and helper as well
  • Can specify separator characters like Tag-it
