First of all I should clarify that my engine is not called Xebec. I am using the Xebec gem in my engine. Xebec is a gem to create menus in your application. I was hoping that I could create menus (all of which are helpers) in my engine and then have the parent apps make use of those menus by calling <%= top_menu %> in their templates or views. As for the gems here is the conundrum. My gemspec says s.add_dependency 'acts-as-taggable-on' s.add_dependency 'pg' s.add_dependency 'pg_search' s.add_dependency 'simple_uuid' s.add_dependency 'devise' s.add_dependency 'rails_config' s.add_dependency 'xebec' The gemfile in the engine says source "http://rubygems.org"; gemspec So somewhere in my engine I have a call to simple_uuid but it doesn't work because bundler did not include that gem (in the parent application). It installed the gem but did not load it. As a result I have to put this on top of my lib/engine_name.rb require 'rubygems' require 'acts-as-taggable-on' require 'pg_search' require 'pg' require 'simple_uuid' require 'devise' require 'rails_config' require 'xebec' Ideally rails would process the Gemfile in the engine(s) and then the Gemfile in the parent app but it doesn't seem to be doing that. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby or Rails Oceania" group.
