| This super simple script loads SlimFAQ content into any page. | |
| Specify a category from SlimFAQ by it's URL, and put a simple | |
| template into the HTML, and this script will auto-load those questions | |
| into the page. When clicked, the links will open inside the SlimFAQ sidebar. | |
| Sample html template: | |
| <div data-slimfaq-category='http://faq.groupmuse.com/323-hosting' data-slimfaq-limit=2> | |
| <h2 data-slimfaq-category-name></h2> | |
| <p data-slimfaq-question-template></p> | |
| </div> | |

| $(document).ready -> | |
| if $("[data-slimfaq-category]").length | |
| $("[data-slimfaq-category]").each -> | |
| endpoint = $(this).attr 'data-slimfaq-category' | |
| endpoint += '.json' unless endpoint.match /\.json^/ | |
| $.get(endpoint) | |
| .success (json) => | |
| questions = json.questions | |
| # if it doesn't have questions, it's not a category | |
| return unless questions? | |
| # Insert the category name, if it exists | |
| $(this).find("[data-slimfaq-category-name]").text json.name | |
| # Use this template for questions | |
| question_template = $(this).find("[data-slimfaq-question-template]") | |
| # Clone template, insert <a> tag for each question | |
| for question in questions | |
| clone = question_template.clone() | |
| # find the first <a> tag in the template, or insert a new one | |
| link = clone.find('a').eq(0) | |
| if !link.length | |
| link = $("<a>") | |
| clone.prepend link | |
| link.text question.name | |
| link.attr 'href', question.url | |
| # attach a click handler so that the link opens the Slimfaq sidebar | |
| # (if it's loaded on the page) instead of redirecting | |
| link.click (e) -> | |
| # if Slimfaq isn't defined, don't do interupt | |
| return true unless Slimfaq? | |
