Simple_form generator for Bootstrap 5 problem

[hoangdd]

Environment

• Ruby [2.7.5]
• Rails [7.0.3.1]
• Simple Form [5.1.0]
• Bootstrap gem [5.2.0]

Current behavior

After running rails generate simple_form:install --bootstrap, I got initializer config config/initializers/simple_form_bootstrap.rb file look likes Bootstrap 4 compatible configuration( with .form-group wrapper ).

And the HTML output with .form-group wrapper.

Expected behavior

Expecting generator can create config file with bootstrap 5 support content. Same as example at simple_form-bootstrap/blob/main/config/initializers/simple_form_bootstrap.rb

Thanks for your amazing work.

Encountered this as well. Looks like the released gem contains an outdated generator for bootstrap.

My temporary working

1. Change the Gemfile entry to gem "simple_form", github: "heartcombo/simple_form", branch: "main"
2. bundle install
3. rails generate simple_form:install --bootstrap
4. Change the Gemfile entry back to gem "simple_form"
5. bundle install

Yes, Bootstrap 5 is not released yet. You can use what @spilth suggested for now, thanks!

This appears to still be an issue, I've just hit it with the latest version from RubyGems, and fixed it with this method. Is this known?
