Multiple inputs on a single line with Twitter Bootstrap and Simple Form 2.0

I am using simple_form 2.0 with twitter bootstrap.

I am trying to determine what is the proper wrapper format in order to get something like [city] [State] [Zip]

I believe my form needs to be 

<div class="control-group">
  <%= f.input :city,:wrapper => :small, :placeholder => "City", :input_html => { :class=>"span2", :maxlength => 10},:label => false %>
  <%= f.input :region, :wrapper => :small , :placeholder => "Region", :input_html => { :class=>"span1", :maxlength => 5}, :label => false %>
  <%= f.input :postal_code, :wrapper => :small,  :placeholder => "Postal Code",:input_html => { :class=>"span2", :maxlength => 10},:label => false %>
</div>

I tried this wrapper

  config.wrappers :small, :tag => 'div', :class => 'controls inline-inputs', :error_class => 'error' do |b|
    b.use :placeholder
    b.use :label_input
  end

I believe I would need to define the CSS as well, but before I go down a rabbit hole I thought I would ask if this is built in somewhere.

My solution for horizontal bootstrap forms:

.control-group
  = f.label :password
  .controls.controls-row
    = f.input_field :password, :class => 'span2'
    = f.input_field :password_confirmation, :class => 'span2'

Using Bootstrap you can add span wrappers.

config/initializers/simple_form_bootsptrap.rb 

config.wrappers :span3, :tag => 'div', :class => 'span3', :error_class => 'error' do |b|
  b.use :html5
  b.use :placeholder
  b.use :label
  b.wrapper :tag => 'div', :class => 'controls' do |ba|
    ba.use :input
    ba.use :error, :wrap_with => { :tag => 'span', :class => 'help-inline' }
    ba.use :hint,  :wrap_with => { :tag => 'p', :class => 'help-block' }
  end
end

app/assets/stylesheets/bootstrap_and_overrides.css.less

@red: #B94A48;

.control-group {
  clear: both;
}

.error .controls .help-inline{
  color: @red;
}

.error .control-label {
  color: @red;
}

.error .controls select{
  border: 1px solid #B94A48;
}

_form.html.rb

<%= f.input :city,        :wrapper =>"span3" %>
<%= f.input :region,      :wrapper =>"span3" %>
<%= f.input :postal_code, :wrapper =>"span3" %>

It is possible to have simple_form do this. This places the inputs on one row with a single label:

<%= form.input :city, label: 'City/State/Zip', input_html: {class: 'span3'}, wrapper_html: {class: 'controls controls-row'} do %>
  <%= form.input_field :city, class: 'span1' %>
  <%= form.input_field :state, class: 'span1' %>
  <%= form.input_field :zip, class: 'span1' %>
<% end %>

The 'span*' classes are optional.

An alternative method, and one that doesn't require bootstrap (which I'm assuming provides config.wrappers, since that throws an exception in my project where I'm not using TBS):

<div class="control-group">
    <%= f.input :city,        :wrapper_html => { :class => "inline_field_wrapper" }, :placeholder => "City",        :input_html => { :maxlength => 10}, :label => false %>
    <%= f.input :region,      :wrapper_html => { :class => "inline_field_wrapper" }, :placeholder => "Region",      :input_html => { :maxlength => 5},  :label => false %>
    <%= f.input :postal_code, :wrapper_html => { :class => "inline_field_wrapper" }, :placeholder => "Postal Code", :input_html => { :maxlength => 10}, :label => false %>
</div>

Then in your css:

.inline_field_wrapper {
    display: inline-block;
}

If you do not want the label change the label_input component only to input like this:

config.wrappers :small, :tag => 'div', :class => 'controls inline-inputs' do |b|
  b.use :placeholder
  b.use :input
end

and you don't need to pass :label => false anymore.

The :error_class is not needed since you is not using the error component
