rake how to fix undefined local variable or method error? - ruby-on-rails

Question

i have a rake task as follows-
desc 'send fetch request'
task send_fetch_request: :environment do
　　FacebookCrawl.new.process
end
Yesterday this task working, but I don't know why it is not working today.
I am trying to execute this with the below command-
rake send_fetch_request
Class details:
class FacebookCrawl
def initialize
fb_config = YAML.load_file(Rails.root.join("config/facebook_catalog.yml"))
#access_token = fb_config["facebook"]["access_token"]
#product_feed_ids = fb_config["facebook"]["product_feed_ids"]
end
def process
#product_feed_ids.each do |key,value|
feed_id = value["id"]
feed_url = value["feed_url"]
make_request(feed_id,feed_url,#access_token)
end
end
end
I am getting below error:
rake send_fetch_request --trace
** Invoke send_fetch_request (first_time)
** Invoke environment (first_time)
** Execute environment
** Execute send_fetch_request
rake aborted!

Yesterday it was working fine, I don't why rake is complaining today. Please help.

Answer 1

Please, look carefully at the error message:
NameError: undefined local variable or method `　　FacebookCrawl' for main:Object
# ↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑↑ ↑↑↑
The first giveaway is that you get a NameError for an undefined local variable or method, and not for a constant. The second giveaway is the name that Ruby complains about: it doesn't complain about FacebookCrawl, it complains about 　　FacebookCrawl.
In Ruby, only the Unicode characters U+0020 SPACE and U+0009 CHARACTER TABULATION are treated as whitespace. You have two Chinese U+3000 IDEOGRAPHIC SPACE characters, which Ruby simply treats as part of the name, and since they are not uppercase characters, it treats the name as a local variable or message send.
You should probably turn on visible whitespace in your editor, e.g. this is how your code looks in my editor, making it immediately obvious where the problem is:

Answer 2

Copy the facebook_crawl.rb in app/services folder & restart the server.
This is your business logic, so it should be in services folder & not in the models
So create a services folder as well in the app directory.
