Incompatible with Ruby 3.2

Opened this issue · 3 comments

File.exists? was deprecated in Ruby 2.1, and removed in Ruby 3.2.

It should be replaced with File.exist?.

     NoMethodError:
       undefined method `exists?' for File:Class

The solution, until this gem has a maintainer, (I volunteered and emailed @benburkert !) is to simply add the removed method back, and a handy gem does that for us:

spec.add_dependency("file_exists", "~> 0.2")

or

gem "file_exists", "~> 0.2"

And then (before all other requires):

require 'file_exists'

thanks for investigating @pboling, mind submitting a PR with your preferred fix?

Will do!
