Newly installed will_paginate 3.0.0
gem 'will_paginate', '~> 3.0.0', :require=>'will_paginate/data_mapper'
Running a controller query:
@tickets = Ticket.paginate(:page => params[:page], :per_page => 5,:username => @ticket.username)
Which works, pulls up all the tickets for a user and paginates in 5’s if I put ?page=X where x is a page number in the url.
=will_paginate(@tickets)
in the view does not work, this results in
undefined method `will_paginate' for #<#<Class:0x000000053674c8>:0x0000000535cd48>
So will_paginate works, but not the view helper. Am I missing something? I’m using slim templating if that makes any difference. Is there some syntax change I’m missing? The documentation is simple but unhelpful beyond this point. I looked into the source, and there does not seem to be any changes, but I cannot figure why it is inaccessible
And then on tangent, this messes with an association.
=> @instance.model_belonging_to_instance.create(:text=>’test’)
TypeError: can't convert nil into Integer
from /home/qx/.rvm/gems/ruby-1.9.2-p180/gems/will_paginate-3.0.0/lib/will_paginate/page_number.rb:16:in `Integer'
etc etc et al
SOLUTION:
gemfile:
gem 'will_paginate', '~> 3.0.0' # removed this, :require=>'will_paginate/data_mapper'
intializer:
require 'will_paginate'
require 'will_paginate/data_mapper'
It shows up, but if not at the top of the template, I get a
stack level too deep
error I am unable to interpret
Don’t use the :require option in the Gemfile, as you already figured out; instead require “will_paginate/data_mapper” somewhere in config/application.rb, for instance after the Bundler setup.
