Question

I have this code in one of my controllers to get access to eventful.

eventful = Eventful::API.new('my_key_here')

However, I get the following error when I refresh my page

uninitialized constant LocationsController::Eventful

I installed the gem version 2.2.1 as directed through http://api.eventful.com/libs and my gemfile contains the line

gem 'eventfulapi', '2.2.1'

I am trying to recreate the example here: http://api.eventful.com/libs/ruby/doc/index.html
I can get it to work in a separate ruby script (e.x. running ‘ruby a.rb’ through command line) which leads me to thinking it’s totally possible. I just can’t get it to work in a controller to feed my application.

Answer 1

Try adding require 'eventful/api' at the top of the controller code.
