# ShinyForms: Form handlers plugin for ShinyCMS
ShinyForms is a plugin for [ShinyCMS](https://shinycms.org) which adds
some generic form handlers to your ShinyCMS site.
Form handlers are endpoints to which you can POST a suitably constructed
HTML form, and they will do Something Useful [tm] with it. The simplest
example emails the form data to the site owner - this allows you to quickly
and easily add a contact form or an order enquiry form to a ShinyCMS site.
Form handlers are created, configured, and controlled via the ShinyCMS admin
area; look for 'Form Handlers' in your admin menu after enabling this plugin.
## Installation
Add 'ShinyForms' to the SHINYCMS_PLUGINS ENV var, then run `bundle install`
for your main ShinyCMS app.
(Currently, all plugins are enabled by default, so you don't actually
need to set the ENV var unless you want to load a subset of plugins.)
To add the ShinyForms tables and supporting data to your ShinyCMS database:
```bash
rails shiny_forms:install:migrations
rails db:migrate
rails shiny_forms:db:seed
```
