This gem is meant to be used with bootstrap-sass. It gives you complete scss versions of bootswatches for use in your Rails 3 asset pipeline, just like bootstrap-sass gives you scss version of bootstrap itself.
Add this line to your application's Gemfile, in assets group:
gem 'bootswatch-rails'
And then execute:
$ bundle
When using bootstrap-sass, it's recommended to avoid sprockets in your stylesheets. In order to do that you simply rename your application.css file to application.css.scss, remove all sprockets comments, and instead use sass @import commands. These commands are smart enough to fully support asset pipeline load paths, thanks to sass-rails gem.
Here's approximately how your application.css.scss file should look like, considering that you're using bootstrap-sass.
// Example using 'Cerulean' bootswatch
//
// First import journal variables
@import "bootswatch/cerulean/variables";
// Then bootstrap itself
@import "bootstrap";
// Bootstrap body padding for fixed navbar
body { padding-top: 60px; }
// Responsive styles go here in case you want them
@import "bootstrap-responsive";
// And finally bootswatch style itself
@import "bootswatch/cerulean/bootswatch";
// Whatever application styles you have go last
@import "base";
I'm converting/updating them as time permits. Here's what's included at this point.
