Question

I’m getting “Could not find generator oauth_consumer” running “rails generate oauth_consumer”???

Ok so I’m new to Rails 3 (just getting back into it). Not sure what I’m doing wrong. I’m trying to follow the following however I’m guessing things have changed with Rails 3…

http://xaop.com/blog/2010/03/05/authentication-with-oauth-in-ruby-on-rails/

Gregs-MacBook-Pro:googleweekends greg$ ruby -v
ruby 1.9.3p0 (2011-10-30 revision 33570) [x86_64-darwin11.3.0]

Gregs-MacBook-Pro:googleweekends greg$ rails -v
Rails 3.2.1

Have added this to the Gemfile:

    gem 'oauth'
    gem 'oauth-plugin'

Have run “bundle install” – not sure if it was required given I’d separately done “gem install” for the oauth gem and plugin.

Gregs-MacBook-Pro:googleweekends greg$ bundle install

...<cut>...
Using oauth (0.4.5)
Using oauth-plugin (0.3.14)
Using rails (3.2.1)
...<cut>...
Your bundle is complete! Use `bundle show [gemname]` to see where a bundled gem is installed.

Error:

Gregs-MacBook-Pro:googleweekends greg$ rails generate oauth_consumer
Could not find generator oauth_consumer.

Any advice?

ok – justed notice a gem plugin version dependency – when I added this to my GemFile it worked….

gem "oauth-plugin", ">= 0.4.0.pre1"
