Question

I want to use Resque in a Ruby on Rails application. I have no need for a relational database nor do I plan to store anything. I just want to use Resque.

How do I configure this application?

I did this:

Empty config/database.yml

In config/application.rb

#require 'rails/all'
require "action_controller/railtie"
require "action_mailer/railtie"
require "active_resource/railtie"
require "rails/test_unit/railtie"

And removed the < ActiveRecord::Base in my models.

But I get errors here:

class ProjectController < ApplicationController
  def index
    @project = Project.new
  end
end

=simple_form_for @project do |f|
    =f.input :scene, :label => 'Scene'
    =f.submit

ActionView::Template::Error:
   undefined method `model_name' for Project:Class

How can I do this?

Answer 1

Make your model inherit from ActiveResource::Base instead:

class Project < ActiveResource::Base
  # ...
end

That will provide the methods required by helpers such as form_for without the need to use ActiveRecord.
