I was trying to learn about the Sinatra ruby framework by following this tutorial:
http://net.tutsplus.com/tutorials/ruby/singing-with-sinatra-the-recall-app-2/
however, after running the gem install and writing a simple sinatra server in test.rb like so:
require 'sinatra'
require 'datamapper'
get '/' do
"Hello, World!"
end
but when I run the command ruby test.rb
, I get the following error:
/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require': no such file to load -- datamapper (LoadError)
from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require'
from datamapper_test.rb:2:in `<main>'
glenn@ubuntu:~/Dropbox/Repositories/sandbox/sinatra$ ruby datamapper_test.rb
/usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require': no such file to load -- datamapper (LoadError)
from /usr/local/lib/ruby/site_ruby/1.9.1/rubygems/custom_require.rb:36:in `require'
from test.rb:3:in `<main>'
it seems as though it cannot find the datamapper gem. how can I fix this?
EDIT: using ruby 1.9.2

You need to require 'data_mapper'
, not datamapper
.
Note there is a datamapper
gem as well as a data_mapper
gem, but they are the same thing, just different names. You need use data_mapper
as the library name in both of them.
As far as I can tell datamapper
is a straight copy of data_mapper
:
$ diff -r data_mapper-1.2.0/ datamapper-1.2.0/
diff -r data_mapper-1.2.0/Rakefile datamapper-1.2.0/Rakefile

< GEM_NAME = 'data_mapper'

> GEM_NAME = 'datamapper'
