Generators depend on ActiveRecord
Reported by DT | April 14th, 2010 @ 10:39 PM
Steps to reproduce
-
Remove :active_record from config.frameworks in environment.rb:
config.frameworks -= [:active_record]
-
Run script/generate migration some_name
(Note: this particular example demonstrates the problem, but doesn't make sense. I encountered this problem while trying to run a custom generator, which generates files that do not rely on ActiveRecord. e.g. script/generate custom_migration some_name.)
Expected
The migration template should be generated.
Actual
Fails with error "uninitialized constant Rails::Generator::Commands::Base::ActiveRecord."
Notes
I've tracked down the problem to next_migration_string in Rails::Generator::Commands::Base (lib/rails_generator/commands.rb:85), which checks for ActiveRecord::Base.timestamped_migrations. A potential fix is to change line 85 from:
if ActiveRecord::Base.timestamped_migrations
to
if defined? ActiveRecord::Base and ActiveRecord::Base.timestamped_migrations
or otherwise remove the dependency.

Please submit a patch in the correct format. I would suggest doing it like this:
ActiveRecord::Base.timestamped_migrations if defined?(ActiveRecord)

Tried to replicate this in Rails 3 and we get this as an output:
rails generate migration foo No value provided for required options '--orm'
the way we're removing ActiveRecord in our environment is: (config/application.rb)
#require 'rails/all' %w( action_controller action_mailer active_resource rails/test_unit ).each do |framework| begin require "#{framework}/railtie" rescue LoadError end end

@DT
If you can provide the code for your custom generator then we can test it specifically Rails 3

Hello DT,
Just wanted to see if you could provide more info (or code) for this so we can test this against Rails 3. Let us know.

This issue has been automatically marked as stale because it has not been commented on for at least three months.
The resources of the Rails core team are limited, and so we are asking for your help. If you can still reproduce this error on the 3-0-stable branch or on master, please reply with all of the information you have about it and add "[state:open]" to your comment. This will reopen the ticket for review. Likewise, if you feel that this is a very important feature for Rails to include, please reply with your explanation so we can consider it.
Thank you for all your contributions, and we hope you will understand this step to focus our efforts where they are most helpful.
