Question

I am new to ruby and am playing around with the gem to access some of the data from the Guardian UKs open platform – contentapi-ruby.

When running a test example I keep getting the error:

(TestSearchContent): RuntimeError: can't add a new key into hash during iteration.

Any ideas what I am doing wrong? What exactly does this error mean?

My code:

 require 'guardian-content'

 articles = GuardianContent::Content.search("Obama")

 articles.each do |article|
    puts article.title
    puts article.url
 end

Looks like there’s a bug in the library. You can fix it by applying this patch:
