Getting Remotipart to work with latest jquery ujs

THIS PAGE IS MOST LIKELY OUTDATED AND SHOULD BE DELETED

Both of the pull requests in question have been merged into rails.js and I have gotten the gem working just fine without any modifications. I didn't delete it myself just because I didn't want to step on toes. :)

Remotipart currently requires an older version of the jquery-ujs. The jquery-ujs previously had a public jQuery function we could hook into called callRemote. However, in this commit, jquery-ujs was refactored and all public methods were removed, eliminating the ability to hook into and override part of the jquery-ujs functionality.

There is an updated Remotipart gem that works with the latest jquery-ujs, however, it requires two modifications to the latest jquery-ujs in order to work.

Those 2 modifications have been submitted as pull requests to rails/jquery-ujs, so hopefully this wiki won't be needed for much longer. For the curious, those 2 pull requests are here and here.

If you require Remotipart to work with the latest and greatest jquery-ujs, you can do that now by following these instructions:

1. Replace rails.js with this fork.

2. Put this in your Gemfile:

    gem 'remotipart', :git => 'git://github.com/JangoSteve/remotipart.git', :branch => 'latest-and-greatest'
   

3. Run bundle install and then rails g remotipart.
