# Sinatra Maruku Extension
The *sinatra-maruku* extension provides `maruku` helper method
for rendering Maruku templates.
To install it, run:
sudo gem install wbzyl-sinatra-maruku -s http://gems.github.com
To test it, create a simple Sinatra application:
# app.rb
require 'rubygems'
require 'sinatra'
gem 'wbzyl-sinatra-maruku'
require 'sinatra/maruku'
get "/" do
maruku "# Hello Maruku"
end
and run it with:
ruby app.rb
The result could be seen at *http://localhost:4567*.
Another example could be find in the *examples* directory.
Run it with:
rackup -p 4567 config.ru
and visit *http://localhost:4567* to contemplate the sheer
beauty of rendered text written in Maruku notation.

## Template Languages (*update to The Sinatra Book*)
### Maruku Templates
This helper method:
get '/' do
maruku :index
end
renders template *./views/index.maruku*.
If a layout named *layout.maruku* exists, it will be used each time
a template is rendered.
You can disable layouts by passing `:layout => false`
to *maruku* helper. For example
get '/' do
maruku :index, :layout => false
end
You can set a different layout from the default one with:
get '/' do
maruku :index, :layout => :application
end
This renders *./views/index.maruku* template
within *./views/application.maruku* layout.
## Sample layout for Maruku templates
CSS: /stylesheets/application.css /stylesheets/print.css
Lang: pl
Title: Hello Maruku
LaTeX preamble: preamble.tex
# Hello Maruku {.header}
<%= yield %>
