Take a look at our screencast Surveyor - A Rails gem plugin for creating surveys (a bit dated now).
- #reference_identifier: usually derived from paper numbering, reference_identifier can be assigned in the DSL e.g.
question_1ora_yes. The reference identifier is also used for dependencies and validations, and must be unique for questions within the scope of a section, and unique for answers within the scope of a question. - #data_export_identifier: intended for data export
- #common_namespace: intended for mapping to a common vocabulary
- #common_identifier: intended for mapping to a common vocabulary
- #display_order: for sorting
- #custom_class: css class for this answer, for custom styling. Use with Survey#css_url, a path to your custom css stylesheet. not supported by nu_surveyor
- #custom_renderer: path to a custom view use to render the answer e.g.
/partials/custom_answer. not supported by nu_surveyor - #text: the text that the user sees.
- #help_text: intended to provide supporting explanation or examples when needed.
- Exclusive checkboxes - a checkbox that when checked, unchecks all the others
- Enforce mandatory questions (although it does have some1 methods2 on ResponseSet to support that)
- Dependencies within repeaters #235
- Validations within the UI #34, although it does have model support and database representations
- GUI creating, editing, deleting and administration of surveys #110
- Consistently support HTML tags in title, text, help_text attributes. We intend to move to markdown support so that same survey definition can be used with nu_surveyor.
