HAML
HAML is the Ruby on Rails template language that GitLab uses.
GitLab UI form builder
GitLab UI is a Vue component library that conforms to the Pajamas design system. Most of these components rely on JavaScript and therefore can only be used in Vue.
However, some of the simpler components (checkboxes, radio buttons, form inputs) can be used in HAML by applying the correct CSS classes to the elements. A custom Ruby on Rails form builder exists to help use GitLab UI components in HAML.
Use the GitLab UI form builder
To use the GitLab UI form builder:
- Change
form_for
togitlab_ui_form_for
. - Change
f.check_box
tof.gitlab_ui_checkbox_component
. - Remove
f.label
and instead pass the label as the second argument inf.gitlab_ui_checkbox_component
.
For example:
-
Before:
= form_for @group do |f| .form-group.gl-mb-3 .gl-form-checkbox.custom-control.custom-checkbox = f.check_box :prevent_sharing_groups_outside_hierarchy, disabled: !can_change_prevent_sharing_groups_outside_hierarchy?(@group), class: 'custom-control-input' = f.label :prevent_sharing_groups_outside_hierarchy, class: 'custom-control-label' do %span = s_('GroupSettings|Prevent members from sending invitations to groups outside of %{group} and its subgroups.').html_safe % { group: link_to_group(@group) } %p.help-text= prevent_sharing_groups_outside_hierarchy_help_text(@group)
-
After:
= gitlab_ui_form_for @group do |f| .form-group.gl-mb-3 = f.gitlab_ui_checkbox_component :prevent_sharing_groups_outside_hierarchy, s_('GroupSettings|Prevent members from sending invitations to groups outside of %{group} and its subgroups.').html_safe % { group: link_to_group(@group) }, help_text: prevent_sharing_groups_outside_hierarchy_help_text(@group), checkbox_options: { disabled: !can_change_prevent_sharing_groups_outside_hierarchy?(@group) }
