h3. Sinatra Applications

h4. Classic Style

To use simple-navigation in your classic style sinatra application, just require ‘sinatra/simple-navigation’:

require 'rubygems'
require 'sinatra'
require 'sinatra/simple-navigation'

# Your app code goes here

h4. Modular Style

If you’re developing a module style sinatra application (i.e. subclassing Sinatra::Base), you have to register Sinatra::SimpleNavigation:

require 'rubygems'
require 'sinatra/base'
require 'sinatra/simple-navigation'

class MyApp < Sinatra::Base
  register Sinatra::SimpleNavigation
  
  # Your app code goes here
end

h3. Padrino Applications

Using simple-navigation in your padrino application is similar to the modular sinatra style. In your @app/app.rb@ file:

require 'sinatra/simple-navigation'

class MyApp < Padrino::Application
  register Sinatra::SimpleNavigation
  
  # Your app code goes here
end

Instead of requiring sinatra/simple-navigation at the top of the file, you could add this to your Gemfile:

@gem ‘sinatra-simple-navigation’, :require => ‘sinatra/simple-navigation’@
