twilio-ruby stops working after upgrading to ruby 3.1.3 - ruby-on-rails

Question

I have been using the twilio api for 3 years to send messages and it worked perfectly. After upgrading from ruby 2.6 to ruby 3.1.3, Twilio is no longer working. We are using twilio-ruby 5.74.2. We are getting the error ArgumentError (wrong number of arguments (given 1, expected 0)):. I have the following code:
def send_pin_through_twilio
client = Twilio::REST::Client.new
client.messages.create({
from: ENV["twilio_phone_number"],
to: self.phone_number,
body: "Hello from ...! Your one-time pin is #{self.one_time_pin}."
})
end
We get the following error:

Here is our initializer for reference:
Twilio.configure do |config|
config.account_sid = ENV["accountsid"]
config.auth_token = ENV["authtoken"]
end
How do I fix this?

Answer 1

Change this:
client.messages.create({
from: ENV["twilio_phone_number"],
to: self.phone_number,
body: "Hello from ...! Your one-time pin is #{self.one_time_pin}."
})
To this:
client.messages.create(
from: ENV["twilio_phone_number"],
to: self.phone_number,
body: "Hello from ...! Your one-time pin is #{self.one_time_pin}."
)
Note that the second example is not a hash, it is using keyword arguments.
This is caused by the separation of positional and keyword arguments in Ruby 3.
If you had updated to Ruby 2.7 then you would have received a warning about this rather than an error. By skipping from 2.6 to 3 you missed the warning and went straight to an error.

Answer 2

I'd say that's because you're using a hash as parameter while the method is now waiting for keyword arguments, try to replace the method call with this line:
client.messages.create(from: ENV["twilio_phone_number"], to: self.phone_number, body: "Hello from ...! Your one-time pin is #{self.one_time_pin}.")
