ok I'm using sorcery gem for the log in of the main engine.
And I want to use it also in the main engine but whenever I call the user model in the
mountable engine it says
undefined method `authenticates_with_sorcery!' for User:Class
When I said call it's like
#user = User.new
By the way I'm using mongoid 4.0.0 and rails 4.1
I ran into similar issues using MongoMapper. Try making sure that authenticates_with_sorcery! appears beneath any of your database-related includes. For example:
class User
include Mongoid::Document
authenticates_with_sorcery!
end
In my case, the gems order in the gemfile was apparently wrong
Not good
gem 'sorcery'
gem 'mongoid'
Works!
gem 'mongoid'
gem 'sorcery'
As far as I remember when I posted this question sorcery gem doesn't support Mongoid 4 yet so they make a new branch in the github so that for those who are using Mongoid in that time can use sorcery with mongoid 4. Well basically the solution works for me is that I need to reference that branch in my Gemfile. I don't know right now if they already publish the latest sorcery gem.

I'm trying to use the pdf-reader gem
(https://github.com/yob/pdf-reader) on my app (RoR with Mongoid).
Unfortunately it doesn't work. I've put the gem in the Gemfile (and have done 'bundle install'). Here's my feedback:
uninitialized constant ActionView::CompiledTemplates::PDF
view-file
<% PDF::Reader.new("somefile.pdf")%>
I've tried to include the library in the model, but it doesn't work.
class User
include Mongoid::Document
include ::PDF::Reader
I get this error
uninitialized constant PDF
Do you know how to use the pdf-reader library on Mongoid?
I am looking forward to your answers. THX!
You need restart the server. After all gem add on your Gemfile, you need restart server to have this gem require in your application.
Hi ive got devise and the invitable plugin working but Id like to set a default limit on how many people a user can invite.
According to the documentaion on github it mentions that you can set this number via invitation_limit
however ive tried using this in devises config file but it complains of undefined method.
I checked the source and theres definately an invitation_limit attribute being decremented. I tried adding this as an attribute to my users model but it still complains.
How do you setup this up????
My guess is that you are using the version of the devise_invitable gem that does not include "invitation_limit." You will need to use at least v0.4.rc5 to get all the new coolness that the documentation talks about. It's definitely a little confusing. Your Gemfile should look like this:
gem 'devise', '~>1.2.0'
gem 'devise_invitable', '~>0.4.rc5'
See here for a more in depth write-up about this issue with devise_invitable.
This is going to be a really dumb question, I just know it, but I'm going to ask anyways because it's driving me crazy.
How do I get acts-as-taggable-on to work?
I installed it as a gem with gem install acts-as-taggable-on because I can't ever seem to get installing plugins to work, but that's a whole other batch of questions that are all probably really dumb. Anyways, no problems there, it installed correctly.
I did ruby script/generate acts_as_taggable_on_migration and rake db:migrate, again no problems.
I added acts_as_taggable to the model I want to use tags with, started up the server and then loaded the index for the model just to see if what I've got so far is working and got the following error: undefined local variable or method `acts_as_taggable' for #.
I figure that just means I need to do something like require 'acts-as-taggable-on' to my model's file because that's typically what's necessary for gems. So I did that hit refresh and got uninitialized constant ActiveRecord::VERSION. I'm not even going to pretend to begin to know what that means went wrong.
Did I go wrong somewhere or there something else I need to do. The installation instructions seem to me like they just assume you generally know what you're doing and don't even begin to explain what to do when things go wrong.
Did you try to define your gem dependencies in config/environment.rb (Rails 2.3):
Rails::Initializer.run do |config|
#...
config.gem 'acts-as-taggable-on'
#...
end
Or in Gemfile for Rails 3 or if you use already Bundler with rails 2.3:
gem 'acts-as-taggable-on'
This should make the require 'acts-as-taggable-on' unnecessary
Maybe following the installation here can help.
For example you don't need to:
require 'acts-as-taggable-on'
but:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
acts_as_taggable
end
Otherwise you need to post more details about the error.
I installed acts-as-taggable-on for my app through github. If you want to try that method instead of the gem, you can read my this post that explains my experience: http://blog.mediummassage.com/2010/04/27/creating-categories-in-the-store-with-tags/
I've been trying to build my first rails app and have gotten stuck on the issue of user authentication. I've found a number of tutorials for using various plug-ins to do this, but so far every single one of them is out-dated, and as a result, broken!
From what I've read, I think Authlogic may be the best fit for me, and I've tried two things:
1) Going through Railscast, episode #160 (which is a tutorial for setting it up)
2) Using Ryan B's nifty_authentication gem with the --authlogic tag
In both cases, I get the following error as soon as I try to do anything with a user:
undefined local variable or method `acts_as_authentic' for #
I believe this is from the User model:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
acts_as_authentic
end
I'm sure I've installed the authlogic gem, and I've added
config.gem "authlogic"
to my environment.rb
Any ideas about what's wrong? Anybody know of a complete and up to date tutorial for adding user authentication?
Edit:
I'm running Ruby v. 1.8.6 and rails v. 2.3.5
There is one thing that Ryan Bates in the RailsCasts episode doesn't talk about is about creating sessions table in your database. Type rake db:sessions:create in the console and run the migration rake db:migrate. Also like ghoppe says run rake gems:install after installing the gem. That is a requisite.
Here's an example app with a step-by-step guide - it's from last year but should still be mostly if not entirely accurate:
authlogic_example
Since you added that line to your environment.rb, have you tried rake gems:install to ensure the gem is installed and working correctly?
Also, what version of Ruby? What version of Rails? Have you tried running gem environment and gem list to make sure they're installed and running from the right place?
Another option is to use authlogic as a plugin, with:
script/plugin install git://github.com/binarylogic/authlogic.git
It also helps to look at a projects that uses authlogic as authentication module, like the fat_free_crm project, have a look at user.rb there
Last but not least, there is an active mailing list:
authlogic mailing list
Becoming popular is also the devise gem. Here you can add authentication with script/generate devise and you will have some views for login as well.
I forked that authlogic_example and added activity_tracker, authlogic, paperclip for user profile images, declarative_authorization, and user to user messages.

I've followed the instructions here, installing the composite_primary_keys gem via
sudo gem install composite_primary_keys
That worked fine. Now when I add the following to my model
set_primary_keys :user_id, :group_id
and I get
undefined method `set_primary_keys' for #<Class:0x1043bfe20>
Also, using multiple primary keys in a migration as described here has no effect.
Any ideas why this might not be working and how to make it work?
Note: I do not want a speech on why I should not be using composite keys--I have already made up my mind and just want to get this working. Thanks!
Did you add require 'composite_primary_keys' to the bottom of your environment.rb file as described here?
