well, here it is, so you finally scrolled down to the comments and just cant get it to install from the git in windows,

download the plugin manually from the git page, place the contents in the plugins directory in a rails-iui directory.

download the iui from http://code.google.com/p/iui/downloads/list and unzip it into the vendor directory , so it should have an iui directory and samples directory and some other files.

now do

rake iui:copy

rake iui:change_root

rake iui:install

and what these do is copy the css and js file from the iui directory in to the rails eqivalent directories of images and javascript, and renames the extensions in the css file according to the rails root directory.

thats it! you are all set, no more googling!

I can’t find any good documentation or examples anywhere. Can anybody shed some light on how to use the iui_list function, specifically how to create the Items it requires? Thanks!

Ciaran — Great, could you submit that as a pull request on github?

This definitely looks interesting!

I made a small change to the rake tasks so that only the iui directory is extracted (as opposed to the whole archive including examples) into the vendor directory. I also delete the tar.gz after extraction.

These changes are available at my clone of your repo on github:
http://github.com/ciaranlee/rails-iui/tree/master

I can't figure out how to stop the tar error from happening though, but it's working fine for me anyway...

The extra rake tasks did the trick, Noel. Thanks a million

I get an error like this (which I think might be a problem in how I'm managing the gzip), but I do get all the files moved to the public folder.

Try this: download the file to vendor, if the tar didn't work, manually untar it, which should create the directory vendor/iui.

Then the following two rake tasks will do the other parts of the install

rake iui:copy

rake iui:change_root
