Great piece of code, really helpful. Could you add a license info so that we know how can we use it?

Thank you very much, works well

Thanks. This is really awesome.

@cmartin81 for some reason, the label is to the right of the input form? Is that what you get too?

@dickyblue, I had same problem and couldn't get

b.use :label, class: 'col-sm-5 control-label'

to style correctly in boostrap3_horizontal.

A different gist ended up helping me more, notice that defaults for label_html and right_column_html add the classes and are declared in the form partial simple_form_for not the initializer... surely fixes for these issues are simple to a seasoned ruby developer but I'm completely new on this so I found this gist more workable. https://gist.github.com/adamico/6510093

@dickyblue i also had that problem. i updated @cmartin81's version slightly and added the error handling in the correct spot:

  config.wrappers :bootstrap3_horizontal, tag: 'div', class: 'form-group', error_class: 'has-error',
                  defaults: { input_html: { class: 'form-group default_class' } } do |b|

    b.use :html5
    b.use :min_max
    b.use :maxlength
    b.use :placeholder

    b.optional :pattern
    b.optional :readonly

    b.use :label, wrap_with: { tag: 'div', class: 'col-md-2' }

    b.wrapper tag: 'div', class: 'col-md-10' do |input_block|
      input_block.use :input
      input_block.use :hint,  wrap_with: { tag: 'span', class: 'help-block' }
      input_block.use :error, wrap_with: { tag: 'span', class: 'help-block has-error' }
    end
  end

This will unfortunately break Active Admin. However, the following approach works fine for me:

inputs = %w[
  CollectionSelectInput
  DateTimeInput
  FileInput
  GroupedCollectionSelectInput
  NumericInput
  PasswordInput
  RangeInput
  StringInput
  TextInput
]

inputs.each do |input_type|
  "SimpleForm::Inputs::#{input_type}".constantize.class_eval do
    alias_method :__input_html_classes, :input_html_classes
    define_method(:input_html_classes) do
      __input_html_classes.push('form-control')
    end
  end
end

Thanks, this trick helped me. But I use

config.wrapper_mappings = { boolean: :checkbox }
config.wrappers :checkbox, tag: :div, class: 'checkbox', error_class: 'has-error' do |b|
  b.use :html5
  b.use :label_input

  b.use :hint,  wrap_with: { tag: :p, class: 'help-block' }
  b.use :error, wrap_with: { tag: :span, class: 'help-block text-danger' }
end

When I use

b.wrapper tag: :label do |ba|
  ba.use :input
  ba.use :label_text
end

the inputs adds me a label automatically and just prepends the plain text.
