I'm trying to use the Rails site map_generator gem to generate site maps for a 8,000,00 page site. The gem can be found here: https://github.com/kjvarga/sitemap_generator
Here is my code in sitemap.rb:
require 'rubygems'
require 'sitemap_generator'
# Set the host name for URL creation
SitemapGenerator::Sitemap.default_host = "http://www.mysite.com"
SitemapGenerator::Sitemap.create do
add '/content.aspx?page=privacypolicy'
Product.find_each do |product|
add product_path(ppid), :lastmod => content.updated_at
end
end
However, when I run
>> ruby sitemap.rb
I get an error that says:
sitemap.rb:9:in `block in ': uninitialized constant
SitemapGenerator::Interpreter::Product (NameError)
However "Product" is the correct name of my model. Why is this happening?
I'm running Rails 3.1.2 and Ruby 1.9.
I'm the author of the gem. Better to open an issue on the GitHub page in future. SitemapGenerator does work in Rails 3 and Ruby 1.9.*. If you are running Rails, you don't need these lines:
require 'rubygems'
require 'sitemap_generator'
Also you generate your sitemaps by running Rake:
rake sitemap:refresh:no_ping
What is happening in your case is that because you're not running through Rake, the script does not know about the Product class, since your Rails environment hasn't been loaded.
Well, I wasn't able to get this gem working. My guess is that it doesn't work on Rails 3.1.2 or with Ruby 1.9. However, I was able to get another gem (big_sitemap) to work. Here is the link to it.

I am trying to call a Ruby script (which connects to a postgres db) using the rails controller below, however it appears it is having problems loading one of the PG gem files. I have set my require statement to require 'pg' and tried the absolute path as well (require /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194#railsTest/gems/pg-0.14.0/lib/pg/). The file 'pg_ext' is in fact present in the directory. Additionally, I can run the ruby script standalone without any problems (dbrubyscript.rb), however when rails is added to this equation it craps out with a cannot load such file -- pg_ext error.
Any direction here would be much appreciated as I have not been able to find anything online that fixes this issue
Rails controller:
class TestdlController < ApplicationController
def runmyscript
load "/usr/local/rvm/my_app/ruby_scripts/reports/dbrubyscript.rb"
send_file '/usr/local/rvm/tmp/failedtests.csv', :type => 'text/csv', :disposition => 'inline'
flash[:notice] = "Reports are being processed..."
end
end
.rb file (dbrubyscript.rb) has the following:
require 'rubygems'
require 'pg'
connects to (production) database
#conn = PGconn.connect("zzzzz.test.prod", 5432,"","","yyyyy_prod" ,"postgres", "xxxxxx")
.....
Trace Error:
LoadError in TestdlController#runmyscript
cannot load such file -- pg_ext
Rails.root: /usr/local/rvm/my_app Application Trace | Framework Trace
| Full Trace app/controllers/Testdl_controller.rb:3:in `runmyscript'
This error occurred while loading the following files:
/usr/local/rvm/my_app/ruby_scripts/reports/dbrubyscript.rb
/usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194#railsTest/gems/pg-0.14.0/lib/pg/
pg_ext
Try running ruby /usr/local/rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.3-p194#railsTest/gems/pg-0.14.0/lib/pg/ext/extconf.rb and see what errors you get. That helped me determine that in my case, my PostgreSQL client was too old. Your error may be different since you appear to have a current-ish versioninstalled.
I had the same problem.
I have a stand alone ruby script. It connects via pg to postgres and worked if I ran it directly from the shell.
If I tried to run it via rspec I get the Error cannot load such file -- pg.
Solved: The problem for rspec was, the pg gem was not defined in the Gemfile. After put pg into Gemfile, and retestet via rspec, it worked.
Try adding a line to your Gemfile:
gem "pg"
Then run bundler via the command line:
bundle install
Rails uses Bundler to manage your gems and dependencies. You can read a bit more about the idea behind Bundler here: http://gembundler.com/v1.2/rationale.html
I've added the delayed_job gem to my gemfile and installed correctly but when I try to run the following line:
Delayed::Job.enqueue do_it(), 0, 1.minutes.from_now.getutc
I get the error 'uninitialized constant Delayed::Job'
Can somebody explain what i need to do here? I've tried running 'rake jobs:work' beforehand but it also returns the 'uninitialized constant Delayed::Job' error. Additionally, I've added "require 'delayed_job'" to the file (application.rb) without much luck.
If you've upgraded to delayed_job version >=3 you'll need to add this (presuming you're using ActiveRecord):
# Gemfile
gem 'delayed_job_active_record'
Did you follow the installation instructions on the README file? https://github.com/collectiveidea/delayed_job
Add this to your gemfile:
gem 'delayed_job_active_record'
and then run this at the console:
$ rails generate delayed_job:active_record
$ rake db:migrate
You need to create the delayed jobs table in the database (this assumes you're using active record).
For Rails 3, all you need to do is include it in the gemfile, run that code above to create the table and migrate the database, then restart your server and go!
I'm using delayed job within an engine (so the gem is specified in a .gemspec rather than Gemfile) and was getting the same error. I found that I could solve the problem by using:
require 'delayed_job_active_record' # fixes problem
rather than
require 'delayed_job' # doesn't
Just in case, if this is still unanswered, check the below link
http://www.pipetodevnull.com/past/2010/4/14/uninitialized_constant_delayedjob/
edit: Alternative, just upgrade to the latest version - 2.1
i was struggling a while back with the same problem. i was following ryan bates screencast on delayed_job and got the same error 'uninitialized constant Delayed::Job'. In the screencast ryan creates a file called mailing_job.rb(located under lib folder) with the delayed_job perform method inside, which allows you to use the enqueue method. After doing some research i found that rails 3 does not automatically load the lib folder files into your app.(not entirely sure)
Try this
In your controller where you use this:
"Delayed::Job.enqueue do_it(), 0, 1.minutes.from_now.getutc"
Try to require the file like this.
require 'mailing_job'
class AssetsController < ApplicationController
def some_method
Delayed::Job.enqueue do_it(), 0, 1.minutes.from_now.getutc
end
end
Version change possibility : if you jump from the 2.1.x to the 3.x version of the gem via a non locked down bundle, you may have a similar issue.
I'm having an issue with using RedCloth in my local application. I keep getting the following error:
uninitialized constant ActionView::CompiledTemplates::RedCloth
This happens because I have the following code:
<%= RedCloth.new("Some text").to_html %>
What I tried to do is put this in the environment.rb file:
require "RedCloth"
However, when I do this, I get a huge error with my Phusion Passenger + Nginx configuration, which I've detailed in the following forum: http://railsforum.com/viewtopic.php?id=42560
Any help would be great. Thanks!
Make sure your Gemfile has a gem 'RedCloth' in it. Regardless of which gems are actually installed in your system, Rails will only use the gems listed in your Gemfile. You do not need the require "RedCloth" statement either.
I had exactly the same error and gem 'RedCloth' line was present in Gemfile. What helped was adding require statement in the beginning of controller file
require 'redcloth'
class StaticController < ApplicationController
...
I've been trying to use HTTParty in my rails code
sudo gem install httparty
From the command line I can now successfully do
httparty "http://twitter.com/statuses/public_timeline.json"
When I try this in my rails app
require 'rubygems'
require 'httparty'
class FooController < ApplicationController
include HTTParty
def bar
blah = HTTParty.get("http://twitter.com/statuses/public_timeline.json")
end
end
I get the error message "no such file to load -- httparty"
I suspect there is something wrong with my environment?
You don't need to do 'include HTTParty' inside the Controller. Just remove that and it should work. I just tested it and it worked for me. If this doesn't work for you, you should add the gem to your environment.
Usually if you use a gem inside your Rails application, you should add the following to environment.rb:
config.gem "httparty"
The gem will be available in the application now and you don't need to add 'require' inside the Controller. Also, you don't need to require RubyGems inside a Controller.
When you use Rails 3, you need to put the following inside the Gemfile:
gem "httparty"
I hope it works for you. :)
The problem is, if you load a new gem, you have to restart the server even if you are in development.
I had this same error. I tried moving the require HTTParty all over, but found, all I needed to do was restart the rails server In the end I did not need to 'require HTTParty' nor 'include' it. It just needed to be loaded into rails.
1)include the httpary in your gemfile
open your gem file then add
gem 'httparty','YOUR VERSION NUMBER'
2) run bundle install in your command prompt of the app file
3) restart the server
Ran into the same problem. Then I switched from Ruby 1.8.7 to Ruby 1.9.2 and all errors varnished into thin air.
(Yes, it first took me quite some hours to come up with the possibility that the Ruby version might be the problem. Configured a secundairy server to avoid possible conflicts with 2 ruby versions, and after way to many hours I got my RoR stack up and running. And the first test with httparty (based on the example on top) worked out of the box! Finally can sleep RESTfully again :-)
I run into the same error whilst reviewing a project from a student, I change the name of the Gem from uppercase to lowercase then run bundle install. I then went ahead to change the format in which they were being imported from
require 'HTTParty' to require 'httparty' and boom it worked
I am attempting to get a gem I installed working in a Rails application. I can require the gem just fine in a Ruby program that I run from the command line using:
require 'nokogiri'
But when I attempt to do the same in one of my Rails controllers it errors saying "no such file to load -- nokogiri".
I tried using the full path to the lib/nokogiri.rb file, but that fails because it cannot find "nokogiri/native".
Better, place the following in your environment.rb file:
Rails::Initializer.run do |config|
...
config.gem :nokogiri
...
end
This will tell Rails that you depend on that particular gem. It also allows you to specify particular versions, and it will automatically keep all your gems synched, or unpack them into vendor/gems if you so wish.
I had a similar error but simply forgot to put the following in my environment.rb file: (note the quoted "nokogiri")
Rails::Initializer.run do |config|
...
config.gem "nokogiri"
...
end
Ok I figured it out. This is going to sound pretty stupid...but oh well...
It turns out I had two installations of ruby on my machine. I use InstantRails to serve my test applications and it comes prepackaged with an installation of ruby. I had another installation however outside of this and it was here that nokogiri had been installed, not in the installation in InstantRails.
In any case they were looking in different spots for the gems.
Try the following
require 'rubygems'
gem 'nokogiri'
If you are on some form of *nix then did you get any errors when you installed the gem, particularly errors stating that the gem was not on the path. This may happen if you have installed the gem as yourself rather than as root and you do not have your personal gem library in your gem path.
If you always install your gems using
sudo gem install some_gem_name
then you should not get that problem.
