With the recent release of the Google Plus beta (ask me for an invite if you want one), I felt it appropriate to show a simple way to create a Like or +1 button for your Rails application. The app and concept is pretty simple, so I won't worry about posting the code below.

Install:

gem 'make_flaggable', :git => 'git://github.com/cavneb/make_flaggable.git'

bundle install

rails generate make_flaggable

rake db:migrate

Models:

class Article < ActiveRecord::Base

make_flaggable :like

end

class User < ActiveRecord::Base

make_flagger

end
