RailsAdmin is a Rails engine that provides an easy-to-use interface for managing your data.

## Getting started

- Check out [the docs][docs].
- Try the [live demo][demo]. ([Source code][dummy_app])

[demo]: https://rails-admin.fly.dev/admin/
[dummy_app]: https://github.com/railsadminteam/rails_admin/tree/master/spec/dummy_app
[docs]: docs/README.md

## Features

- CRUD any data with ease
- Custom actions
- Automatic form validation
- Search and filtering
- Export data to CSV/JSON/XML
- Authentication (via [Devise](https://github.com/plataformatec/devise) or other)
- Authorization (via [CanCanCan](https://github.com/CanCanCommunity/cancancan) or [Pundit](https://github.com/elabs/pundit))
- User action history (via [PaperTrail](https://github.com/airblade/paper_trail))
- Supported ORMs
  - ActiveRecord
  - Mongoid

## Installation

1. On your gemfile: `gem 'rails_admin', '~> 3.0'`
2. Run `bundle install`
3. Run `rails g rails_admin:install`
4. Provide a namespace for the routes when asked
5. Start a server `rails s` and administer your data at [/admin](http://localhost:3000/admin). (if you chose default namespace: /admin)

## Upgrading to 4.0

See [Upgrading to RailsAdmin 4.0](docs/upgrading-to-4.md). Short version: re-run `rails g rails_admin:install` — the gem ships a prebuilt bundle now.

## Configuration

### Global

In `config/initializers/rails_admin.rb`:

[Details](docs/base-configuration.md)

To begin with, you may be interested in setting up [Devise](docs/devise.md), [CanCanCan](docs/cancancan.md) or [Papertrail](docs/papertrail.md)!

### Per model

```ruby
class Ball < ActiveRecord::Base
  validates :name, presence: true
  belongs_to :player

  rails_admin do
    configure :player do
      label 'Owner of this ball: '
    end
  end
end
```

Details: [Models](docs/models.md), [Groups](docs/groups.md), [Fields](docs/fields.md)
