I am trying to use the Sunlight API gem with a Rails project. I have installed the gem and can successfully use it from irb.
However, when I put the require statement (require 'sunlight') in sunlight.rb in config/initializers, I get the following error:
/opt/local/lib/ruby/gems/1.8/gems/activesupport-3.0.0.beta3/lib/active_support/dependencies.rb:209:in `require': no such file to load -- sunlight (LoadError)
I checked the permissions on the gems directory, and it is world readable/executable.
Here is the code from sunlight.rb:
require 'rubygems'
require 'sunlight'
Sunlight::Base.api_key = 'bb7b775755054c54aa9715d202f6785c'
Can anyone tell me how to fix this? TIA!
Is sunlight listed in your Gemfile? Rails3 uses Bundler to manage Gem installations.

I'm using rubyzip to zip a csv file so uses can download it. This works perfectly in development mode. But when I tried zipping the file on the production server (rackspace) I received the error: LoadError (cannot load such file -- zip/zip). Is it a path issue? Anyone know a fix?
The error is being called in my code on this line: require 'zip/zip'
I've tried the solution from here, but it didn't help.
I fixed this problem by specifying gem version 0.9.9 in Gemfile:
gem 'rubyzip', "~> 0.9.9"
Using rubyzip (1.0.0) caused an error.
When upgrading rubyzip to 1.0.0 change require 'zip/zip' to require 'zip'.
I had this problem after adding roo to a Rails project.
Roo needed the new interface, something else (some other gem) was using the old interface - so most of these answers didn't work (couldn't lower the version of rubyzip, rubyzip2 is deprecated, didn't have require zip/zip in my project).
What worked for me was cassio-s-cabral's answer referring to the rubyzip github page.
gem 'rubyzip', '>= 1.0.0' # will load new rubyzip version
gem 'zip-zip' # will load compatibility for old rubyzip API.
I had the same problem: error thrown on "require 'zip/zip'" code, and the solution from this post also did not help.
After a long research I found that the problem was that my "require 'zip/zip'" statement was done in a separate
lib/exporters/package_exporter.rb
file, and for some reason "require" statements are not handled in "lib" folder in production by default.
When I moved "require 'zip/zip'" to the beginning of my
app/controllers/packages_controller.rb
the problem was solved!
I had a similar issue with active_support, just added the 'zip' gem to my Gemfile and it worked fine
I'm use rubyzip2 gem to fix this problem
gem 'rubyzip2'
what work for me was to install 2 gems:
gem install rubyzip
gem install zip
and in the script put
require 'rubygems'
require 'zip/zip'
In their github page explains what to do.
Rubyzip interface changed!!! No need to do require "zip/zip" and Zip
prefix in class names removed.
If you have issues with any third-party gems what required old
version of rubyzip you can use next workaround:
gem 'rubyzip', '>= 1.0.0' # will load new rubyzip version
gem 'zip-zip' # will load compatibility for old rubyzip API.
I have a Rails 3 app that I am turning into a Rails engine / gem.
This engine has some gem dependencies that I have put inside it's .gemspec file.
I have created a new 'parent' Rails 3 app, and I would like to add my engine gem to the Gemfile and have the gem's dependencies automatically 'loaded', but this does not work for me! bundle install installs the gem dependencies fine, but when I start the server, the app crashes because they are not loaded.
For example, my engine's gemspec contains these lines:
s.add_runtime_dependency(%q<rails>, ["= 3.0.7"])
s.add_runtime_dependency(%q<acts_as_commentable>, [">= 3.0.1"])
s.add_runtime_dependency(%q<haml>, [">= 3.1.1"])
.. and the parent Rails 3 application has these lines in its Gemfile:
source 'http://rubygems.org'
gem 'my_engine', :path => "~/src/gems/my_engine"
But I get the following error:
undefined local variable or method `acts_as_commentable'
from /home/user/src/gems/my_engine/app/models/account.rb:66:in `<class:Account>'
But if I add gem 'acts_as_commentable', '>= 3.0.1' to the Gemfile of the parent Rails 3 app, then the gem is loaded and the error disappears.
I am using Rails 3.0.8.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Do I need to change something about the way my engine is loading?
During main Rails app boot, Bundler will only require dependencies directly listed in the Gemfile but not any sub-dependencies. It's your library's/Engine's responsibility to require its dependencies when it itself gets required. You can do so using initializers in your Railtie.
class MyRailtie < Rails::Railtie
initializer "require stuff" do
require "stuff"
end
end
In our Rails Engine we used a small trick to require dependencies automatically. Unfortunately you can't specify whether or not they should load in the .gemspec, which would allow for greater control.
Gem.loaded_specs["our_rails_engine"].dependencies.each do |d|
begin
require d.name
rescue LoadError => le
# Put exceptions here.
raise le if d.name !~ /factory_girl_rails/
end
end
I'm looking at Spree (the superhero of Rails Engines!), and they do this in spree_core-0.60.1/lib/spree_core.rb:
require "rails/all"
require 'state_machine'
require 'paperclip'
require 'stringex'
require 'will_paginate'
require 'nested_set'
require 'acts_as_list'
require 'resource_controller'
require 'active_merchant'
require "meta_search"
require "find_by_param"
So the answer is that within your gem, you have to require all of it's gem dependencies one by one. Well, that's how I will do it for now. But please comment if this ever changes in the future.
Seems it don't work, i create a host project and a sub-project with rails 3 engine.
Added the gem to engine's gemspec
s.add_dependency 'simple_form'
then added the require to engine_name.rb like below
require 'simple_form'
But if delete the line [gem 'simple_form'] in host project's Gemfile, it will show undefined immediatly
I'm likely doing something very simply wrong, but I'm not quite sure what it is. I am porting a rails 2 application to rails 3. This application uses webmock for a bunch of it's tests.
If I include
gem 'webmock'
In my Gemfile, the tests pass, but when I start the server and run the app locally, hitting a controller that should make a web call throws an error:
WebMock::NetConnectNotAllowedError
If I do NOT include the line in my Gemfile, then when I run the app locally, it works fine, but the tests error out with:
`require': no such file to load -- webmock (LoadError)
When this line is hit in my test_helper.rb
require 'webmock'
I'm guessing I've got something configured wrong, but I haven't hit the right google incantation to shed any light on it yet. Where I did I go astray?
Thank you.
Try telling your Gemfile to only load webmock when you're in a test environment:
group :test do
gem "webmock"
end
On my Ruby 1.9 Rails 3 instance I have something like the following:
group :test do
gem "mocha"
gem "webmock"
end
group :development do
gem 'ruby-debug19', :require => 'ruby-debug'
end
I had a working app, added Nokogiri, to parse some xml, runs fine locally.
My Gemfile includes: gem 'nokogiri'
I ran bundle install and verified my Gemfile.lock includes DEPENDENCIES ... nokogiri
In my controller class I added (didnt thinkI had to but got an error locally if I didnt):
class MydealController < ApplicationController
require 'rubygems'
require 'open-uri'
require 'nokogiri'
when I use my browser to get the url in MydealController that uses nokogiri doc = Nokogiri::XML(getresult) Heroku crashes.
heroku logs shows this error No such file to load -- nokogiri (LoadError)
Looking at what happens when I git push heroku I do not see nokogiri on the list of many many gems that get installed. Heroku says the push was fine, but nokogiri is not listed and I get the aforementioned error...
It seems that when using Windows Gemfile.lock will contain version of nokogiri gem specific for windows, solution is to remove Gemfile.lock and push to heroku.
More info on this subject here
Your mission should you choose to accept it.
Ensure:
nokogiri is in Gemfile.lock
Gemfile.lock is committed to git
you push the commit that has nokogiri in Gemfile.lock to Heroku
Good luck! This message will self destruct in 10 seconds...
Just had the same problem -- you have to run bundle install to get it added to the Gemfile.lock which heroku looks at to find uninstalled dependencies.
This might help to understand the reason:
http://devcenter.heroku.com/articles/ps
Indeed removing Gemfile.lock might help. All other compiled gem will cause isseu. Best way is to ask Heroku's support.
Only found this article:
http://ganeshprasadsr.blogspot.com/2010/10/installing-nokogiri-for-rails-3-app-on.html
Try to remove require 'nokogiri' from controller.
It works for me.
i couldn't find anywhere if vlad it's compatible with Rails 3, but i tried to deploy a new rails 3 app that we're developing and always returns the same error:
Error loading vlad: no such file to load -- vladrake aborted!
Don't know how to build task 'vlad:init_setup:production'
I'm using ruby 1.8.7 (2010-08-16 patchlevel 302) [i686-darwin9.8.0]
And rails 3.0.1 and i testit with vlad 2.0.0 and vlad 2.1.0
In the Rakefile i have this:
# Add your own tasks in files placed in lib/tasks ending in .rake,
# for example lib/tasks/capistrano.rake, and they will automatically be available to Rake.
require File.expand_path('../config/application', __FILE__)
require 'rake'
begin
require 'rubygems'
require 'vlad'
Vlad.load :scm => :git, :app => :passenger
rescue LoadError => e
$stderr << "Error loading vlad: #{e}"
end
If anyone has an idea where to look at it in order to fixit or maybe tell me if vlad it's rails 3 ready?
Thanks in advance for your time
Cavi
Maybe you already figured this out, but do you have vlad included in your Gemfile? You probably want to add:
group :development do
gem 'vlad-git'
gem 'vlad'
end
Then run bundle.
