uninitialized constant Ebics::Client

[ternes3]

Hey,
i´m new on ruby and currently I try to integrate ebics with this gem. I just followed the introduction placed in the readme and get this error: uninitialized constant Ebics::Client

any ideas?

thanks

are you using bundler? or writing some script without?

can you try Epics::Client, which is the name mentioned in the README, altough Ebics should also work.

[ternes3]

I am using bundler, with Epics it run into cannot load such file -- epics. Mixed up with require "ebics" and Epics::Client it end up in uninitialized constant MyClass::Epics.

[kangguru]

within a rails app?
or a custom script? -> how are you requiring the bundle then?

are you using epics or ebics?

[ternes3]

Yes, its inside an rails app.
Gemfile -> gem 'epics'

Well, actually i tried everything with ebics, but you comment recently:

can you try Epics::Client

so now im using epics. My Controller looks like:

require "epics" //error line when require "epics" cannot load such file -- epics

class InitController < ApplicationController

  def index
    e = Epics::Client.setup("my-super-secret", "https://ebics.sandbox", "SIZBN001", "EBIX", "EPICS") //error line when require "ebics" uninitialized constant InitController::Epics
   ...

  end
end

hm...

class ApplicationController < ActionController::Base
  # Prevent CSRF attacks by raising an exception.
  # For APIs, you may want to use :null_session instead.
  protect_from_forgery with: :exception

  def foo
    render text: Epics::Client
  end
end

works on a new generated rails app.

although i'm pretty sure you've done all that, just to reduce failure options:

• bundle is installed?
• server restarted?
• spring is stopped?

[ternes3]

ok, i just copied your example controller, same result.
Bundle is installed and the server is restarted. Spring was running. Unfortunately without spring it results in the same error.

[kangguru]

puh... what else is in the Gemfile? Can you provide it to me?

[ternes3]

sure, actually it is the gemfile generated with rails new ... added epics and unicorn, removed spring (yep i run spring stop on my project).
source 'https://rubygems.org'

gem 'epics'

gem 'rails', '4.2.6'

gem 'sqlite3'

gem 'sass-rails', '~> 5.0'

gem 'uglifier', '>= 1.3.0'

gem 'coffee-rails', '~> 4.1.0'

gem 'jquery-rails'

gem 'turbolinks'

gem 'jbuilder', '~> 2.0'

gem 'sdoc', '~> 0.4.0', group: :doc

gem 'bcrypt', '~> 3.1.7'

gem 'unicorn'

group :development, :test do
  gem 'byebug'
end

[kangguru]

i've pushed the complete sample app and used your Gemfile... still works.

can you check it out and maybe find some differences between those two?

[ternes3]

thanks very much kangguru, the solutions is simple. The difference is the line require 'epics', it just seems not to be necessary, without the application works fine.

[kangguru]

ok, although that should not change something :) happy it now works for you!

happy easter 🐰
