rit-client is a Rails plugin that provides access to the Rit. content scheduling system.

Please see the Rit documentation and wiki for more information on Rit.

Install

./script/plugin install git://github.com/briandoll/rit_client.git

# In config/initializers/rit.rb
RIT_HOST = 'rit.example.com'

Once the plugin is installed you'll be able to access Rit. content from your controllers and views.

A safe method that returns nil if no content is found:

rit_plate(layout_name, instance_name, plate_name)

An 'unsafe' method that may throw either a Rit::NotFoundError or a Rit::TimeoutError

rit_plate!(layout_name, instance_name, plate_name)
