I'm following some tutorials of association in rails database, the first step is to create the app with rails new newProject -B. Then i create the two models with rails g scaffold Father name:string and rails g scaffold Child name:string sex:string father:references.
After that i try to create the database with the command rake db:create, but an error appears:
Could not find nokogiri-1.6.7.1 in any of the sources Run bundle
install to install missing gems.
I run the command bundle install normally, but when i tried again, the same error appears.
I tried to insert in the GemFile gem 'nokogiri', '~> 1.6', '>= 1.6.7.1' and the same error persists.
I had a similar issue with nokogiri a couple of months ago.
I solved it by adding '-rc3' to the end of the gem version, like this:
gem "nokogiri", ">= 1.6.7.rc3"
I've had this problem a few times before, you can try installing the gem manually using gem install nokigiri
Have you try
$bundle update
?
Can you post the error logs to see if it is a Permissions Error or something else?
I am developing a gem meant to be used with Rails projects and want to try it out locally with another Rails app of mine.
I built the gem with bundle exec rake release which put a .gem file in the /pkg directory.
Then, in my Rails app, I added the following to my gemfile
gem 'mygem', '0.1.1', path: '/Users/me/projects/mygem/ruby/pkg'
I then ran bundle install which said it installed the gem. When I do this, it removes the gem from the path. IDK where it went.
When I start the Rails app, it's like the gem isn't included at all.
Interestingly, if I add a version that doesn't even exist, it still says bundle install works fine. (Example: gem 'mygem', '0.1.2345', path: '/Users/me/projects/mygem/ruby/pkg')
What am I supposed to do to try out my Gem locally with a Rails app?
This question is different from How can I specify a local gem in my Gemfile? because I explicitly tell bundle in my Gemfile to use the local gem, with the path given, and it still doesn't work. When I run bundle install, it says
Using mygem 0.1.1 from source at /Users/me/projects/mygem/pkg
So you'd think it works right, but it still doesn't.
Interestly, if I try it with a version number that doesn't exist, like mygem 1.2.3, it still runs bundle install successfully, which is really weird and seems like a bug:
Using mygem 1.2.3 (was 0.1.1) from source at /Users/me/projects/mygem/pkg
I prefer to use the following when working on a local gem side-by-side with a Rails project:
gem 'foo',
:git => '/path/to/local/git/repo',
:branch => 'my-fancy-feature-branch'
I am following these guides:-
http://www.runtime-revolution.com/runtime/blog/introducing-survey
When I try:-
gem "survey", "~> 0.1"
as it suggests I get:-
ERROR: While executing gem ... <RuntimeError>
Unknown command survey,
When I try:-
gem install survey
It says that everything has installed fine but when I try:-
Rails generate survey plain namespace:contests
or
rails generate survey:install
I get :-
Could not find generator
Also, looking in my Gemfile survey is not in there?
gem "survey", "~> 0.1"
Is not a command. This is the line you need to manually add to your Rails Gemfile to list the gem as dependency in your Rails application, as also explained in the README you linked.
After you add it, run
$ bundle
and the gem will be installed in your Rails application.
As a side note, you may also benefit from reading some introductory book about using Ruby and Rails.
I'm trying to unpack all the system gems to end up with a standalone Rails directory including all the rails gems and all the system gems.
I'm starting with a bare rails setup; just did a jruby -S rails and a 'generate jdbc'. I then add a config.gem 'jdbc-mysql' to environment.rb and do the jruby -S rake gems:unpack:dependencies.
After unpacking, if I do a rake I get:
no such file to load -- jdbc-mysql
Is there something else you need to do to get the jdbc gem unpacked?
I'm using jruby 1.4.0 (and moving to 1.5 is on my todo list) and rails 2.3.8.
Here is what I do:
1) Install gems to a local repository
2) Set my load environment to use a gemrc.yml file from inside the local repository
To instal gems locally do this from your project folder:
gem install {gemname} -i gems
(the "-i gems" tells rubygems to install the gem in the folder gems and the {gemname} is a placeholder for the name of the gem you want to install.)
To set your gemrc.yml make a file in the newly created gems folder called gemrc.yml with something like the following content:
http://gist.github.com/430339
Then you need to tell your app to use your local gems at startup by adding the following to your config/boot.rb
http://gist.github.com/430343
Good luck... and for extra credit you could setup the ability to install a gem if it is needed. I did this through a method called dependency which is a helper method for the require command... This function receives a name and options... This way I simply say something like: (dependency 'extlib') and it does this if it cannot require the gem.
puts gem install --config-file gems/gemrc.yml #{'-v "'+options[:version].gsub(' ','')+'"' if options[:version]} #{options[:gem] || name}
I'm trying to install RSpec as a gem after having it installed as a plugin. I've gone ahead and followed the directions found here http://github.com/dchelimsky/rspec-rails/wikis for the section titled rspec and rspec-rails gems. When I run ruby script/generate rspec, I get the error Couldn't find 'rspec' generator. Do only the plugins work? If so, why do they even offer the gems for rspec and rspec-rails? I'm running a frozen copy of Rails 2.1.2, and the version of rpsec and rspec-rails I'm using is the newest for today (Nov 7, 2008) 1.1.11.
EDIT Nov 12, 2008
I have both the rspec and rspec-rails gems installed. I've unpacked the gems into the vender/gems folder. Both are version 1.1.11.
Since RSpec has been become the default testing framework in Rails you no longer need to create spec docs via the rspec generators:
Rails 2 RSpec generator
rails generate rspec_model mymodel
Rails 3 RSpec generator
With RSpec as the default testing framework simply use Rails' own generators. This will construct all of the files you need including the RSpec tests. e.g.
$rails generate model mymodel
invoke active_record
create db/migrate/20110531144454_create_mymodels.rb
create app/models/mymodel.rb
invoke rspec
create spec/models/mymodel_spec.rb
Have you installed both rspec and rspec-rails gems?
script/generate rspec
requires rspec-rails gem to be installed.
For Rails 3 and rspec 2+
You must make sure you include 'rspec' and rspec-rails' in your Gemfile
Run Bundle Install
then run rails g rspec:install
If you are using rails 2.3 You need to use
ruby script/plugin install git://github.com/dchelimsky/rspec-rails.git -r 'refs/tags/1.3.3'
and then
ruby script/generate rspec
Is there supposed to be an 'rspec' generator? I've only used the following:
script/generate rspec_model mymodel
script/generate rspec_controller mycontroller
I've had this problem before, it boiled down to the version of RSpec I had not working with the version of Rails I was using. IIRC it was a 2.1 Rails and the updated RSpec hadn't been released as a gem. In fact, 1.1.11 is the gem I have, which would be the latest available (ignoring github gems), so I'm pretty sure that's exactly what my problem was.
I've taken to just using the head of master rspec with whatever version of Rails I happen to be on, it seems stable to me (and isn't going to break things in production, unless somehow a test broke with a false positive).
I do it with git using submodules, for example:
git submodule add git://github.com/dchelimsky/rspec.git vendor/plugins/rspec
git submodule add git://github.com/dchelimsky/rspec-rails.git vendor/plugins/rspec_on_rails
In case anyone is wondering about Rails 3 now,
this seems to do the trick for me:
http://github.com/rspec/rspec-rails/blob/29817932b99fc45adaa93c3f75d503c69aafcaef/README.markdown
I'm using rails 2.3.9. I started of trying to use the gem(s) but just couldn't get the generator for rspec to show up. Then I installed the plugin(s) using the instructions on https://github.com/dchelimsky/rspec/wiki/rails and that did the trick.
On Fedora 9 (OLPC) I did:
$ sudo gem install rspec
$ sudo gem install rspec-rails
Those got me to where I could run
$ ruby script/generate rspec
This worked for me, whereas the git instructions did not work.
If you are using bundler version 1.0.8 you should $ gem update bundler to a newer version 1.0.9.
I had the same symptons and updating bundler helped me out.
Now $ rails g is using gems defined in the Gemfile. Also I grouped my gems like this:
source 'http://rubygems.org'
gem 'rails', '3.0.3'
gem 'sqlite3-ruby', :require => 'sqlite3'
group :test, :development do
gem 'capybara', '0.4.1.1'
gem 'database_cleaner'
gem 'cucumber-rails'
gem 'rspec-rails', '~> 2.4'
gem 'launchy'
end
(Note that test gems are also in the :development group.)
Have a nice day :)

If you type script/rails generate, the only RSpec generator you'll actually see is rspec:install. That's because RSpec is registered with Rails as the test framework, so whenever you generate application components like models, controllers, etc, RSpec specs are generated instead of Test::Unit tests.
Please note that the generators are there to help you get started, but they are no substitute for writing your own examples, and they are only guaranteed to work out of the box for the default scenario (ActiveRecord & Webrat).
https://github.com/rspec/rspec-rails
You might need to run bundle exec :
bundle exec rails g rspec:install
You'll need to do
sudo gem install cucumber-rails
