can't dup NilClass when render template

[senny]

@Xorg1984 can you please attach your template or a template that reproduces the problem along with the sablon script you are using to render it?

[avdovin]

the error occurs with this template

[senny]

@Xorg1984 can you attach a script that renders the template as well?

[avdovin]

To reproduce issue try run this test script

#!/usr/bin/env ruby
require "sablon"

template = Sablon.template('KVADREX-36.docx')
context =
{
  client: {
    "id"=>53, "ct_cd"=>0, "fname"=>"Петров", "lname"=>"Тестов",
    "mname"=>"Васильевич", "short_name"=>"Тестов К. А.", "email"=>"[email protected]", "interest_id"=>5,
    "status_id"=>1, "source_id"=>1, "cooparation_stage_id"=>nil,
  },
}
template.render_to_string(context)

if context is empty hash i get another error:
lib/sablon/parser/mail_merge.rb:20:in replace_field_display': undefined methodremove' for nil:NilClass

@Xorg1984 your word document contained traces of invalid merge fields (with the expression =client.lname). While I'd recommend to clean up those broken references, theres no reason for sablon to crash like this. I pushed a fix and will release 0.0.17 shortly.

[senny]

0.0.17 is out.

@Xorg1984 thank you for reporting.

[avdovin]

@senny thanks you for the quick reply and fixing crash! looks good :)
