I am developing a rails gem. It uses the gon gem so in the gemspec file I have included
spec.add_dependency 'gon' Then in the Gemfile for the application using my gem I have put gem 'my_gem', :path => '/path/to/dir/containing/my_gem' When I run bundle install I see that it includes my gem and also the gon gem as expected. >From a view helper in the app I am calling helper method in a module in my gem's lib folder, and in there I have code such as gon.variable = ... and that code throws an error ActionView::Template::Error (undefined method `gon' for #<PlotValuesController:0x000000067bbc30>) where PlotValuesController is the controller in the app. If I explicitly include gon in the Gemfile for the app then all works as correctly. Any suggestions as to why I have to explicitly include gon in the application's Gemfile, when it is included anyway via the dependency in my gem? Gemfile.lock with and without gon included explicitly can be seen at http://pastebin.com/vzvNgg3K Colin -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Ruby on Rails: Talk" group.
