Rails.configuration.to_prepare code not getting executed

Reported by dennis collective | August 24th, 2010 @ 09:22 AM

I'm using the rails_warden gem, which via middleware magic injects a lazy proxy object as env['warden']. When I wrap its initialization in config.to_prepare env['warden'] is nil.

my config/initializers/warden.rb:

Rails.configuration.to_prepare do
 Rails.configuration.middleware.use RailsWarden::Manager do |config|
  config.failure_app = UserSessionsController
  config.default_strategies(:awesome)
 end
 Warden::Strategies.add(:awesome) do
  def authenticate!
   user = User.find(1)
   success!(user)
  end
 end
end

after booting the app, I tried to do some logging statements and raise a runtime error:

Rails.configuration.to_prepare do
  logger.info "this did not show up in my logs"
  raise "and this did not get raised"
  Rails.configuration.middleware.use RailsWarden::Manager do |config|
  ...
end

but neither worked, a whiny nil was raised when the request called env['warden'].authenticate!

all of this works without the to_prepare block, but it's a bit of a pain to restart the app everytime there is a change.

    If I add following lines to my code then I do get raise message. Can you elaborate on what is the issue you are running into.

    Rails.configuration.to_prepare do
      puts "this did not show up in my logs"
      raise "and this did not get raised"
    end
