*Background info:*
I am working my way through Crafting
Rails<http://pragprog.com/titles/jvrails/crafting-rails-applications> and
in Chapter 4 I made a handler for "merb" templates—markdown with erb
interspersed. This can be compiled into text or html, so it's perfect for
mail. My "new_submission" Notification email has one template in
app/views/notifications/new_submission.merb. Then in
app/mailers/notifications.rb, all you need to do is
mail(:to => Person.editor.email) do |format|
format.text
format.html
end
And the single .merb template gets compiled into both the text and html part
of a multipart email. Woohoo! You can read more about this in an excerpt
from Crafting Rails <http://media.pragprog.com/titles/jvrails/emails.pdf>,
and you can browse around my specific implementation of
it<https://github.com/chadoh/handlers>
.
*Somewhere, somehow, something went wrong*
I updated my Gemfile about a week ago, and thought I got everything working
because my pages were loading and Compass and Sass were no longer grumbling
at me. For some horrible reason I didn't run any of my tests. But it turns
out I've been getting this error since then whenever I call an action (such
as "packlet.destroy") that tries to send this new_submission email:
ActionView::Template::Error (undefined method `children' for nil:NilClass):
app/mailers/notifications.rb:25:in `block in new_submission'
app/mailers/notifications.rb:23:in `new_submission'
app/models/submission.rb:62:in `has_been'
app/models/packlet.rb:20:in `destroy'
app/controllers/packlets_controller.rb:27:in `destroy'
Line 26 of app/mailers/notifications is the "format.html" line, shown above.
I have narrowed this down to a problem with haml/sass 3.1 by doing this
bundle update more granularly. I updated Rails, ran my tests, no problems. I
updated haml, ran my tests, and this pops out in four places.
Any guidance would be greatly appreciated.
