I'm using the latest version of the Impressionist and Rails Admin gems, and wondering if anyone could shed some light on an annoying conflict I'm experiencing. The problem is roughly documented here - https://github.com/sferik/rails_admin/issues/1315, yet the vaguely described solution is not working for me. When I have the line is_impressionable in my Listing model, I get an error when starting my Rails server with rails s:
...rvm/gems/ruby-2.0.0-p247/gems/activerecord-4.0.2/lib/active_record/dynamic_matchers.rb:22:in `method_missing': undefined local variable or method `is_impressionable' for Listing(no database connection):Class (NameError)
If I first start the server, and then add the 'is_impressionable' line, everything works fine, so the problem only occurs during initialization. I don't fully understand the initialization process, so am not sure how to go about getting this to work.
I have tried moving all my rails_admin model configuration options to their respective models, rather than in the initializer, which had no effect. I also have the following line in my initializer:
config.included_models = [Listing,ListingImage,AllOtherModelsHere...]
I have tried adding single quotes around these model names, which results in the following errors, as described in the github issue here
[RailsAdmin] Could not load model Listing, assuming model is non existing. (undefined local variable or method `is_impressionable' for Listing(no database connection):Class)
Any ideas what else I can try to make these gems work together? I don't want to have to remove the is_impressionable line every time I want to restart the server or generate a migration...
Not sure if the same issue that I had but yet I will post what worked for me just in case someone struggles with this too:
Im on a ruby 2.1.5 project with rails 4.2.0 and among other gems I'm using rails admin.
I run into several weird problems trying to set this up. For instance if I added the is_impressionable call within one of my models for some reason the execution of that file stopped there and I started getting weird errors like any method declared below the is_impressionable failed with undefined error.
So what I end up doing was:
class MyModel < ActiveRecord::Base
include Impressionist::IsImpressionable
is_impressionable
end
So this solved my issue and now i can access #my_model_instance.impression_count as expected.
I changed every occurrence of Klass to 'Klass'.constantize in initializer.

We are getting this error on all local setups of our project(currently) when we call any method like:
belongs_to :abc
after_create :some_method
def some_method
if self.abc.saved_change_to_parent_id?
...
// or even self.abc.parent_id_before_last_save
end
It gives:
NameError (undefined local variable or method `first' for ActiveRecord::NullMutationTracker:Class):
app/models/model_name.rb:50:in `some_method'
Yes, there is not a full trace with rails internal file paths etc, i only get my project files trace. Maybe its some logger config issue, any help to get full trace will also be appreciated.
There are no such issues i could find on internet, thats why posting here.
PS: Not posted on rails issue tracker(github issues) because i don't have minimal reproduction.
Stack
ruby: 2.4.3
rails: 5.1.5 (also tried on 5.1.7)
OS: Ubuntu 20, also tried on macOS
Thanks in advance.
UPDATE1: Using byebug, i got to this trace, where error is occuring:
/Users/dev/.rvm/gems/ruby-2.4.3/gems/acts_as_singleton-0.0.8/lib/acts_as_singleton.rb:43
which is here, so it is not directly from rails, but a very outdated gem we have in our code for some reason.
As i posted in the update, issue was not with rails or anything, i used byebug to track trace and it was something like:
activemodel-5.1.5/lib/active_model/attribute_methods.rb:384
activerecord-5.1.5/lib/active_record/attribute_methods/dirty.rb:146
activerecord-5.1.5/lib/active_record/attribute_methods/dirty.rb:319
activerecord-5.1.5/lib/active_record/attribute_methods/dirty.rb:315
acts_as_singleton-859f49112c03/lib/acts_as_singleton.rb:43
The last line, should not be there, as we are not using acts_as_singleton on any of the involved models.
So after some tracking, it turned out issue with the gem. I have created a fork and used that fork. Here is the fork: https://github.com/ziaulrehman40/acts_as_singleton (forked it from another fork, which seemingly had some other fixes as well). And you can see my changes here.
What was the issue?
This gem writes a module named Singleton within ActiveRecord module. Which seems ok, unless you realize that there is another module named Singleton already. Whihc is being included in:
gems/activerecord-5.1.5/lib/active_record/attribute_mutation_tracker.rb:83
class NullMutationTracker # :nodoc:
include Singleton
...
So as you can see, this Singleton module gets overriden(or expanded, not sure) un-intentionally by that outdated gem(acts_as_singleton).
I have a query object in Rails 5.2.2
app/queries/car_query.rb
class CarQuery
attr_reader :relation
# code
end
when I reference it in the console, I get
Error
NameError (uninitialized constant CarQuery)
Since the folder/file is in the app directory, I thought it automatically gets loaded. Am I incorrect? If so, why would my form objects autoload and not these? How do I fix this?
Try running bin/spring stop in your console then restarting the app.
If that doesn't work add update you application.rb with
Spring.watch "app/queries/**"
Make sure that the name of the file corresponds to the class name, or else rails will have trouble loading it. That is to say, make sure the file name is car_query.rb, if CarQuery is the name of the class.
CarQuery.rb goes against rails naming conventions and will mess with autoloading.
I'm trying to use my Engine in another app to test the install generator and it seems to be failing. I haven't used my install generator for a long time, so I'm not sure when it broke (or if it ever truly smoothly worked). My project is based off radar/forem, so I tried to borrow a lot of their code (including the generator).
Edit: My installer works for the engines test/dummy but not in other apps. Why?
GH issue: https://github.com/NJayDevelopment/mongoid_forums/issues/16
Here is the log:
$ rails g mongoid_forums:install
What is your user class called? [User]
What is the current_user helper called in your app? [current_user]
Defining mongoid_forums_user method inside ApplicationController...
insert app/controllers/application_controller.rb
Adding mongoid_forums initializer (config/initializers/mongoid_forums.rb)...
create config/initializers/mongoid_forums.rb
(erb):5:in `template': undefined method `per_page' for MongoidForums:Module (NoMethodError)
The route is successfully added, however the initializer/mongoid_forums.rb is a blank file. The method is defined exactly how radar/forem does it, what could be the error?
Here is the relevant code:
Per page method definition: https://github.com/NJayDevelopment/mongoid_forums/blob/master/lib/mongoid_forums.rb#L33
Mattr accessor:
https://github.com/NJayDevelopment/mongoid_forums/blob/master/lib/mongoid_forums.rb#L9
Initializer template:

Install generator at error point:
https://github.com/NJayDevelopment/mongoid_forums/blob/master/lib/generators/mongoid_forums/install_generator.rb#L47
Turns out when you try requiring mongoid_forums in pry, you'll see that an error involving decorators occurs. The issue is fixed here in my pull request to decorators: parndt/decorators#13
It's because of the way files are required and how load! is called over there.
Waiting on PR status, that is the same version that radar/forem uses as well.
I am trying to create an observer for my Offer model but I keep getting this error:
/Users/codus/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194#gyp/gems/activesupport-3.2.6/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:503:in `load_missing_constant': Expected /Users/codus/Projetos/gyp-revolution/app/models/offer.rb to define Offer (LoadError)
There is nothing special about my model and I am sure it is declared in the right place (the application works fine without the observer).
I've generated my observer with the Rails script
rails g observer offer
And I added this in my config/application.rb file
config.active_record.observers = :offer_observer
The strangest part is that it works fine with all my other models.
I am using Rails 3.2.6 with Ruby 1.9.3p194.
The problem was that I was using FactoryGirl, and inside my Offer factory I called a constant defined in my model. The factory was being loaded before the model, so this error was happening.
It's weird that the observer changed this, it works fine without it. Now I just use the value in my factory, not the constant.
I am trying to get the OAuth gem to work with Rails 3 and I'm running into this weird problem... (independent of the gem, I think I've run into this once before)
I have a controller called "OauthTestController", and a model called "ConsumerToken". The model looks like this.
require 'oauth/models/consumers/token'
class ConsumerToken < ActiveRecord::Base
include Oauth::Models::Consumers::Token
end
When I go to "/oauth_test/twitter", it loads the Oauth::Models::Consumers::Token module and I'm able to connect to twitter no problem. But the second time I try it (just refresh the /oauth_test/twitter url), it gives me this error:
NameError (uninitialized constant Oauth):
app/models/consumer_token.rb:4
app/models/twitter_token.rb:2
app/controllers/oauth_test_controller.rb:66:in `load_consumer'
Why is that? It has something to do with load paths or being in development mode maybe?
Try using require_or_load instead of require. That forces full load each time when in development and can sometimes help with this sort of issue.
Yeah it's something to do with being in development mode. Setting config.cache_classes = true in your development.rb get's it working (but is a pain in the ass)
