Ransack: simple_form instead of search_form?

Created on 13 Dec 2011  路  6Comments  路  Source: activerecord-hackery/ransack

I'm using my search forms like this:

= simple_form_for @q, :url => categories_path, :html => {:method => :get} do |f|

and it works

instead of

= search_form_for @q do |f|

There are problems if I use simple_form?

Use

= search_form_for @q, :builder => SimpleForm::FormBuilder

Use

= search_form_for @q, :builder => SimpleForm::FormBuilder

But if I use simple_form_for @q the search works anyway, so why I have
to use :builder => SimpleForm::FormBuilder?

@lucapette it works great, thanks

It is not possible to use methods like grouping_fields, combinator_select,.. if :builder => SimpleForm::FormBuilder is provided.

Is here some way how to use f.input from simple_form and also grouping_fields, combinator_select etc. form Ransack::Helpers::FormBuilder ?

You can only have one or the other. Right now you cannot combine Ransack and SimpleForm builders.

This was also discussed in #31.
