create_post.rb doesn't work

[mscherer]

Did setup.sh gave any errors ?

[TomasTomecek]

It worked:

# bundle install
...
Your bundle is complete!
Use `bundle show [gemname]` to see where a bundled gem is installed.
# ./create-post.rb 
/usr/share/rubygems/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:54:in `require': cannot load such file -- launchy (LoadError)
        from /usr/share/rubygems/rubygems/core_ext/kernel_require.rb:54:in `require'
        from ./create-post.rb:4:in `<main>'

[mscherer]

@garrett any idea ?

@TomasTomecek that error looks unfamiliar but it's been a while. Can you test again and see if you're still having issues?

[garrett]

Add the following line at the bottom of the Gemfile and run bundle install:

gem 'launchy' 

Then it should work.

Then commit both Gemfile and Gemfile.lock and push the fix. 😉

[garrett]

Add gem 'launchy' to Gemfile, run bundle install, then commit Gemfile and Gemfile.lock and push the fix please.

The command should then work after running bundle install.

and Gemfile.lock and push the fix please.

Okay, GitHub has some issue. Sorry for multiple replies. (Retyping them on my phone wasn't so fun.)

[TomasTomecek]

Tried that, didn't work. Tried to install the gems manually, didn't help either. I'm giving up.

[root@1a51e4a13216 source]# gem install -N launchy
Successfully installed launchy-2.4.3
1 gem installed
[root@1a51e4a13216 source]# ./create-post.rb
./create-post.rb:4:in `require': cannot load such file -- launchy (LoadError)
        from ./create-post.rb:4:in `<main>'

Feel free to close this.

I'll admit that I've never used create-post.rb, nor was I actually aware of it.

[jberkus]

@garrett create_post seems to still be broken, even with the updates of the Gemfile. See PR.

[jberkus]

So here's the problem in the container: launchy simply won't install.

[root@73025a4f0521 ruby]# gem install launchy
Successfully installed launchy-2.4.3
ERROR:  While executing gem ... (Gem::DocumentError)
    RDoc is not installed: cannot load such file -- rdoc/rdoc
[root@73025a4f0521 ruby]# gem list | grep launchy
[root@73025a4f0521 ruby]# 

[jberkus]

I'm closing this as WONTFIX. As far as I can tell, create_post does not work and has never worked. Removing it from the repository.

[mscherer]

Well, it work on my laptop:

$ ./create-post.rb 
Usage: ./create-post.rb [options] "Blog title here."
    -a, --author          Author name (default: misc)
    -d, --date            Custom datetime (default: 2016-03-25 00:03:09 CET)
    -e, --editor          Custom editor (default: vim)
    -t, --tags            Comma-separated list of tags
    -n, --no-browser      Disable browser
    -h, --help            Display this help message.

Now, it might be a missing deps somewhere or some wrong version (the joy of ruby).

[jberkus]

I have not been able to create a container build where it works.

If someone can create a DockerFile + Gemfile where it works, then we can save it.

[mscherer]

So, looking at it, on a fresh fedora:latest container, this do install it:

# dnf install rubygems ; gem install launchy
[...]
# gem list |grep launch
launchy (2.4.3)
# gem list |grep rdoc
rdoc (4.2.0)

On my RHEL 7 system, I also do have rdoc 4.0.0 and launchy 2.4.3 and 2.4.2.

So I guess I must do it using a complete container to reproduce the issue
